During ___, the pressure in the alveoli is less than the atmospheric pressure

Physics
1 answer:
vfiekz [6]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

inspiration

Explanation:

Alveolar pressure is pressure of the air inside lung alveoli.

When epiglottis is opened and there is no air flowing in or out of lungs, the alveolar pressure is equals to atmospheric pressure.

<u>During the process of inspiration, the volume of the alveoli increases which results in lung expansion and decreases the intra-alveolar pressure to the value below atmospheric pressure.</u> This slight negative pressure change is enough to move about  500 ml volume of air into lungs in just 2 seconds. At the end of the inspiration,alveolar pressure returns to the value of atmospheric pressure,

During expiration, the opposite change occurs.

An object is attached to a vertical spring and bobs up and down between points A and B. Where is the object located when its kin
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

a. at either A or B

Explanation:

Kinetic energy may be defined as the energy of the system or an object which is due to its velocity of the object it possess.

In the context, an object having mass  is attached to spring which is vertical and the object moves up and down due to spring effect between points A and B. Now these points A and B are the extreme points after which the object bounces back.

At point A and B, the velocity of the object becomes zero and hence the kinetic energy of a body varies directly proportional to its velocity.

                  i.e. Kinetic energy $= \frac{1}{2} \text{mass} \times (\text{ velocity})^2$

Sean pushes a box with a force of 100 N. Christian pushes an identical box with a force of
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Christian

Explanation:

Given that

Force applied by Sean ,F₁=100 N

Force applied by Christian ,F₂=200 N

Lets take mass of the box =  m kg

As we know that from second law of Newton's

F= m a

F=Force,m=mass ,a=acceleration

F_1=ma_1

100=m\times a_1

a_1=\dfrac{100}{m}\ m/s^2

F_2=ma_2

200=m\times a_2

a_2=\dfrac{200}{m}\ m/s^2

From the above we can say that acceleration a₂ is greater than a₁ is for the same mass of the box.

Therefore Christian will acceleration more for the box.

The current through a certain heater wire is found to be fairly independent of its temperature. If the current through the heate
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

(c) increase by a factor of four

Explanation:

the formular for the relationship between  energy and current is E= I²Rt (Heat energy)

the heater is fairly independent of its temperature , and given the time to be constant.

with the current being doubled,

E = I² Rt

E/ I² = K

\frac{E1}{I1^{2} } =\frac{E2}{I2^{2} }

E2 = \frac{E1* I1^{2} }{I1^{2} }

I2 = 2* I1

E2 =  E1 * 4*I1² / I1²

dividing , we have that  E2 = 4 * E1

which means during the same time interval the amount of energy will increase by a factor of four.
