Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the evaporation concept?

1 answer:

5 0

All, or almost all, warm-blooded creatures get rid of excess heat by evaporating moisture from their bodies. It's a great system, because evaporation takes a lot of heat. That's the reason people perspire when we're active and build up a lot of heat inside. The evaporation of sweat from our skin carries away heat with it. Dogs do not sweat on their skin. The only place they can evaporate moisture is through their mouth. Panting speeds up the evaporation by blowing air across the moisture.

Find the energy u of the capacitor in terms of c and q by using the definition of capacitance and the formula for the energy in

gtnhenbr [62]

The formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

<h3>What is the energy of a capacitor?</h3>

The energy of a capacitor u = 1/2qv where

q = charge on capacitor and
v = voltage across capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance of a capacitor?</h3>

Also, the capacitance of a capacitor c = q/v where

q = charge on capacitor and
v = voltage across capacitor.

So, v = q/c

<h3>The formula for energy of the capacitor in terms of q and c</h3>

Substituting v into u, we have

u = 1/2qv

= 1/2q(q/c)

= q²/2c

So, the formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

Mrs. Paul and Dr. Mykannen ride a tandem bike on the beach. They ride along the beach for about 455 meters. Their final velocity

algol [13]

Answer:

Time = 80.91 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Velocity = 5.50 m/s.

Distance = 445 meters

To find the time;

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

$Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

5.5 = 445/time

Time = 445/5.5

Time = 80.91 seconds

If a bottle is being squeezed with a force of 10 Newtons and the area of the bottle is 15

squared inches. What is the pressure??

Answer:

1025.64 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure: This can be defined as the ratio of force to area. The si unit of pressure is N/m².

From the question,

P = F/A........................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, A = Area.

Given: F = 10 Newtons, A = 15 Squared Inches = (15×0.00065) = 0.00975 m²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 10/0.00975

P = 1025.64 N/m²

Hence the pressure of the bottle is 1025.64 N/m²

Which of the following would decrease in size during the contraction of a sarcomere? The width of the I-bands The width of the A

ANEK [815]

Hi!

The correct answer would be: the width of I-bands

The sacromere is the smallest contractile unit of striated muscles. These units comprise of filaments (fibrous proteins) that, upon muscle contraction or relaxation, slide past each other. The sacromere consists of thick filaments (myosin) and thin filaments (actin).

<em>Refer to the attached picture to clearly see the structure of a sacromere.</em>

<u>When a sacromere contracts, a series of changes take place which include:</u>

<em>- Shortening of I band, and consequently the H zone</em>

<em>- The A line remains unchanged</em>

<em>- Z lines come closer to each other (and this is due to the shortening of the I bands) </em>

The only changes that take place occur in the zones/areas in the sacromere (as mentioned), not in the filaments (actin and myosin) that make the up the sacromere; hence all other options are wrong.

Hope this helps!
