There is a limit to how long your neck can be. If your neck were too long, no blood would reach your brain! What is the maximum

height a person's brain could be above his heart, given the noted pressure and assuming that there are no valves or supplementary pumping mechanisms in the neck? The density of blood is 1060 kg/m3 .

Answer:

The maximum height a person's brain could be above his heart is: 1.28 meter.

Explanation:

We need to know what is the normal blood pressure ours hearts so there is a rate: 120/80 (mmHg) and the average will be: 100 (mmHg) and using the Pascal law that relate pressure, density, gravity and height like:P_{2} = pgh_{1} - pgh_{2} + P_{1}, where P is pressure, p is density, g is the gravity acceleration and h is the height. Now we can find the height and delta of pressure will be: P2-P1 = 100 (mmHg), knowing that 1(mmHg) is equal to 133 Pa, we can do the convertion to 13332.2 (Pa), now because the units of Pascal are Newton/(meter^2). Then we solve the formula to get the height: \frac{P2-P1}{pg} =h so we get:\frac{13332.2}{(1060*9,81)}=Height=1.28(meters).

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 580 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel s
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

Here

wave length used that is λ = 580 nm

=580 x 10⁻⁹

distance between slit d = .46 mm

= .46 x 10⁻³

Angular position of first order interference maxima

= λ / d radian

= 580 x 10⁻⁹ / .46 x 10⁻³

= 0.126 x 10⁻² radian

2 )

Angular position of second order interference maxima

2 x  0.126 x 10⁻² radian

= 0.252 x 10⁻² radian

3 )

For intensity distribution the formula is

I = I₀ cos²δ/2 ( δ is phase difference of two lights.

For angular position of θ1

δ = .126 x 10⁻² radian

I = I₀ cos².126x 10⁻²/2

= I₀ X .998

For angular position of θ2

I = I₀ cos².126x2x 10⁻²/2

=  I₀ cos².126x 10⁻²

Three point charges are arranged along the x axis. Charge q1=-4.00nC is located at x= .250 m and q2= 2.40 nC is at the x= -.300m
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

q₃=5.3nC

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the force exerted by the charges q₁ and q₂. To do this, we use the Coulomb's Law:

F= k\frac{|q_aq_b|}{r^{2} } \\\\\\F_{13}=(9*10^{9} Nm^{2} /C^{2} )\frac{|(-4.00*10^{-9}C)q_3|}{(.250m)^{2} } =576q_3N/C\\\\F_{23}=(9*10^{9} Nm^{2} /C^{2} )\frac{|(2.40*10^{-9}C)q_3|}{(.300m)^{2} } =240q_3N/C\\

Since we know the net force, we can use this to calculate q₃. As q₁ is at the right side of q₃ and q₁ and q₃ have opposite signs, the force F₁₃ points to the right. In a similar way, as q₂ is at the left side of q₃, and q₂ and q₃ have equal signs, the force F₂₃ points to the right. That means that the resultant net force is the sum of these two forces:

F_{Net}=F_{13}+F_{23}\\\\4.40*10^{-9} N=576q_3N/C+240q_3N/C\\\\4.40*10^{-6} N=816q_3N/C\\\\\implies q_3=5.3*10^{-9}C=5.3nC

In words, the value of q₃ must be 5.3nC.

An ideal gas is confined within a closed cylinder at atmospheric pressure (1.013 * 105 Pa) by a piston. The piston moves until t
likoan [24]

Answer:

911700\ \text{Pa}

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1.013\times 10^5\ \text{Pa}

V_1 = Initial volume

V_2= Final volume = \dfrac{V_1}{9}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=9

Temperature is the same in the initial and final state

From the ideal gas law we have

P_1V_1=P_2V_2\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=P_1\times9\\\Rightarrow P_2=1.013\times 10^5\times 9\\\Rightarrow P_2=911700\ \text{Pa}

The final pressure of the system is 911700\ \text{Pa}.

State Coulomb’s Law equation and give the meaning of every variable and the units.
igor_vitrenko [27]

The Coulomb's law equation is  F = Kq₁q₂/r².

<h3>What is Coulomb's law?</h3>

This is the law that relates the product of two charges to the square of distance between the two charges.

Coulomb's law states that the force of attraction or repulsion is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the charges.

<h3>Coulombs' law equation</h3>

The equation of Coulomb's law is given as;

F = Kq₁q₂/r²

where;

  • K is Coulomb's constant, Nm²/C²
  • q₁ is the first charge, C
  • q₂ is the second charge, C)
  • r is the distance between the charges, m

Thus, the Coulomb's law equation is  F = Kq₁q₂/r².
