Answer:

an inhibitor of angiotensin II

Explanation:

Angiotensin, specifically angiotensin II binds to many receptors in the body to affect several systems. It can normally increase blood pressure by constricting the blood vessels but with the introduction of an inhibitor, it wouldn't bring about an increase in blood pressure.

A physics student throws a softball straight up into the air. The ball was in the air for a total of 3.56 s before it was caught

meriva

Answer:

The initial velocity of the softball is 14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

This is a case of an object which experiments a free fall, that is, an uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and in which effects from air friction and Earth's rotation can be neglected.

From statement we must understand that the student threw the softball upwards and it is caught at original position 3.56 seconds later. Initial and final heights, time and gravitational acceleration are known and initial speed is unknown. The following equation of motion is used:

$y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot g \cdot t^{2}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$y_{o}$ - Initial height of the softball, measured in meters.

$y$ - Final height of the softball, measured in meters.

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity of the softball, measured in meters per second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that $y = y_{o}$ , $t = 3.56\,s$ and $g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the initial velocity of the softball is:

$v_{o}\cdot (3\,s)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3\,s)^{2} = 0$

$3\cdot v_{o} -44.132\,m= 0$

$v_{o} = 14.711\,\frac{m}{s}$

The initial velocity of the softball is 14.711 meters per second.

How fast is a wave traveling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \sf{77 \: m/s}}}}$

☯ Question :

How fast is a wave travelling if it has a wavelength of 7 meters and a frequency of 11 Hz?

☯ $\underbrace{ \sf{Required \: Answer : }}$

☥ Given :

Wavelength ( λ ) = 7 meters
Frequency ( f ) = 11 Hz

☥ To find :

Speed of sound ( v ) = ?

☄ We know ,

$\boxed{ \sf{v = f \times λ}}$

where ,

v = speed of sound
f = frequency
λ = wavelength

Now, substitute the values and solve for v.

➺ $\sf{v = 11 \times 7}$

➺ $\boxed{ \sf{v = 77 \: m/s}}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------

✑ Additional Info :

Frequency : The number of complete vibrations made by a particle of a body in one second is called it's frequency. It is denoted by the letter f . The SI unit of frequency is hertz ( Hz ).

Wavelength : The distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a sound wave is called wavelength of that wave. It is denoted by λ ( lambda ) and it's SI unit is m.

Speed of a sound wave : The distance covered by a sound wave in one second is called speed of sound wave. It depends on the product of wavelength and frequency of the wave.

Hope I helped!

Have a wonderful time! ツ

The acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring, was written by this woman in 1962.

olga_2 [115]

Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment.
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

What type of heat transfer is used to fry an egg in a pan and how can you tell?

Deffense [45]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A process in which transfer of heat occurring when one object touches another object is known as conduction.

For example, when a pan is heated and then an egg is placed over the pan. Then there will be transfer of heat from pan towards the egg.

As a result, the egg gets cooked because the egg was touching the pan.

Hence, we can conclude that it is conduction because the egg is touching the pan.

5. If one object has a greater speed than a second object. does the first necessarily have a greater acceleration? Explain, usin

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

5. not necessarily so that the first object could have left with initial velocity and the second not, so even if the second has a greater acceleration its velocity is less than that of the first

6. The acceleration of the motorcycle is

SI System Reductions

Vo = 80 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 22.2 m / s

Vf = 90 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 25 m / s

Vf = Vo + at at = Vf-Vo

am = (Vf-Vo) / t

am = (25 -22.2) / t = 2.8 / t

am= 2.8/t

For the bike we have

Vf = 10 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 2.78 m / s

Vo = 0

ab = (Vf -Vo) / t

ab = (2.78 -0) / t

ab = 2.8/t

Since time is the same for both of us, if we round to Significant figures the two accelerations are equal

7. If when an object is slowing or slowing down.

For example, a car goes north and must stop at the traffic light, the acceleration of the brakes goes south

8. Yes, since an object can go to the left and the acceleration to the right, but the object will lose speed over time

9. in the launch of projectiles the acceleration is negative and the speed after half the path is also negative

10. Car B must be moving to car A, because if they leave together B has more acceleration, bone that travels the distance at the same time

11. When we have friction, the velocity of an object increases by an external force, but the friction also increases the acceleration, but since it is positive, the velocity increases until the acceleration is zero and hence the velocity remains constant.
