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)

A contestants spin a wheel when it is their turn in a game show. One contestant gives the wheel an initial angular speed of 3.40

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

4.62 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial angular speed, $\omega=3.4 rad/s$

$\theta=1\frac{1}{4} rev=\frac{5}{4}\times 2\pi=2.5\pi rad$

$\omega'=0$

$\omega'^2-\omega^2=2\alpha \theta$

Substitute the values

$0-(3.4)^2=2\times 2.5\pi \alpha$

$\alpha=\frac{-(3.4)^2}{2\times 2.5\pi}=-0.736 rad/s^2$

$\omega'=\omega+\alpha t$

$0=3.4-0.736 t$

$-0.736t=-3.4$

$t=\frac{-3.4}{-0.736}=4.62 s$

Hence, the wheel takes 4.62 s to come to rest.

How often a wave occurs in the waves

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

Frequency – The frequency of a wave is the number of waves that pass a given point in a certain amount of time. Frequency is measured in units called hertz (Hz), and is defined as the number of waves per second. A wave that occurs every second has a frequency of 1 wave per second (1/s) or 1 Hz.

The force of air resistance acts to oppose the motion of an object moving through the air. A ball is thrown upward and eventuall

ozzi

Answer:

For a (1) net force will be greater than the weight of the ball

For b (2) net force will be lesser than the weight of the ball

Explanation:

For (a):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes upward, one thing is for sure, the net force is greater than the weight of the ball, because three forces are applied during upward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is also acting downward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in upward motion

External force to throw ball upward

Net Force = Upward force - Air friction - Weight

Since ball is going upward, so net force is greater than both weight and air friction which are pulling ball downward.

For (b):

For a linear motion of a system, one must have to understand, according to Newtons first law of motion, which is also known as law of inertia, a body which is at motion will continue to move or a body at rest will continue to rest until an external force is applied to it. In the given case, when ball goes downward, one thing is for sure, the net force is lesser than the weight of the ball, because two forces are applied during downward motion:

gravity or weight which is pulling the ball downward,

air resistance, which is acting upward as it is creating friction between ball and air molecules, so creating hindrance in downward motion

Net Force = Weight - Air friction

Since ball is going downward, so weight is greater than net force which is in this case is air friction which is pulling ball upward.

An elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration and moves 1 m in the first 1.7 s. A passenger in the elevator i

avanturin [10]

Answer: Tension = 53.6N

Explanation:

Given that

Height h = 1 m

Time t = 1.7 s.

Mass m = 5.1 kg

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Then we can find the tension in the cord by using the formula

T = mg + ma

= 5.1 (9.8 + 0.69)

= 5.1 × 10.5

= 53.6N

Which resultant force is NOT possible if 50 N force and a 60 N force act concurrently?

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

Suppose the case where the forces act in opposite directions, then we need to subtract the forces, and we know that the magnitude of the resultant force will be:

60N - 50N = 10N

Now, suppose the case where both forces act in the exact same direction, in that case, we will add the forces to get:

60N + 50N = 110N

Then the only range of forces that we can get in this system, are the forces such:

10N ≤ F ≤ 110N

Any resultant force outside that range is not possible in this situation.
