This might help,the presence of hydrochloric acid creates an acidic environment within the stomach that is needed to convert pepsinogen to pepsin. Mucus that is produced by the epithelial cells of the stomach help protect the lining of the stomach from the corrosive hydrochloric acid and pepsin.

Explain the steps that you would use to focus on a specimen under a compound light microscope.
Rashid [163]

To start, move the objective lens to its lowest power setting. Place a slide on the stage with the label side up and the cover slip in the middle. You can only use the coarse focus knob when the power is low. If you can't see anything, move the slide a little while you look and focus. If nothing shows up, turn down the light and move the slide a little while you're looking and focusing. Once you're in focus on low power, move the slide to make the object of interest in the middle of it. Turn the objective to medium power and only change the fine focus. If you need to, turn the objective to high power and only adjust the fine focus.

what is the force needed to move a boy and his wheelchair with a combined mass of 30kg at 0.4 meters per square second
vichka [17]

Answer:

The force needed to move a boy and his wheelchair with a combined mass of 30kg at 0.4 meters per square second is 12 newton.

Explanation:

  • According to Newton's second law based motion "the moving object's acceleration is based upon two terms - one is the total force acting upon that object and the other one is the net mass of the object."
  • In mathematical term, F=ma. where F= force, m= mass, a= acceleration.
  • So, by performing the calculation, \bold{\mathrm{F}=30 \times 0.4 \mathrm{N}=12 \mathrm{N}}
  • 12N force will move the boy along with the wheel chair.
