Answer:

sulcus

Explanation:

A sulcus is an indentation or depression in the brain that causes it to look like it ridges or folds

Cerebral sulci and fissures are grooves between the adjacent gyri on the surface of the cerebral hemispheres.

Sulci can be basically can be divided into three basic function

limiting sulcus: This happens to develop between areas differing in structure and function, for example central sulcus

axial sulcus: This develops along the axis of a rapidly growing/developing area (e.g. calcarine sulcus)

operculated sulcus: a sulcus may be between two structurally-different areas and a third sulcus may lie in its wall and does not appear on the surface (e.g. lunate sulcus)

What does it mean for waves to be polarized?

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Polarization, also called wave polarization, is an expression of the orientation of the lines of electric flux in an electromagnetic field ( EM field ). Polarization can be constant -- that is, existing in a particular orientation at all times, or it can rotate with each wave cycle.

How can an object become charged

morpeh [17]

Answer:

An object gets charged when it's atoms lose or gain an electron to become an ion. For example: ... This means that the fur loses it's electrons to the plastic rod and both objects are now charged. The fur is positively charged because it lost electrons and the rod is negatively charged because it gained electrons

a street light is mounted at the top of a 15 foot pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole wit a speed of 7 ft/s along a s

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

16.3 ft/s

Explanation:

Let d=distance

and

x = length of shadow.

Therfore,

x=(d + x)

= 6/15

So,

15x = 6x + 6d

9x = 6d.

x = (2/3)d.

As we know that:

dx=dt

= (2/3) (d/dt)

Also,

Given:

d(d)=dt

= 7 ft/s

Thus,

d(d + x)=dt

= (7/3)d (d/dt)

Substitute, d= 7

d(d + x) = 49/3 ft/s.

Hence,

d(d + x) = 16.3 ft/s.

A 25kg chair initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires 165 N force to set it in motion. Once the chair is in motion, a 12

bazaltina [42]

The coefficient of static friction between the chair and the floor is 0.67

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of the chair = 25kg

Force = 165 N (F_applied)

Force = 127 N (F_max)

To find: Coefficient of static friction

The “coefficient of static friction” between a chair and the floor is defined as the ration of maximum force to the normal force acting on the chair

μ_s= $F_{max}/F_{n}$

The F_n is equal to the weight multiplied by its gravity

∴ $F_{n}$ =mg

Thus the coefficient of static friction changes as

μ_s= $F_{max}/mg$

μ_{s} = $=165N/((25kg)\times(9.80 m/s^2 ) )$

= 0.67
