In a normal respiratory cycle the volume of air that moves into and out of the lungs is about 508 mL. The reserve and residual v

olumes of air that remain in the lungs occupy about 2020 mL and a single respiratory cycle for an average human takes about 4 seconds. Find a model for the total volume of air V(t) in the lungs as a function of time.

Answer:

V(t)=2020+508sin((pi/2)t))

Explanation:

breathing can be seen as an oscillatory function, so it would be perfect to use a sine or cosine function.

for this reason this is an equation of the form

V(t)=C+Asin(Wt)

as we know that there is always a fixed amount of air in the lungs (2020ml) which indicates that it is a constant amount.

on the other hand, the amount of air that moves in the lungs varies between 0l and 508ml for this reason this will be the amplitude

W=2pi/T

the period (T) is defined as the amount of time it takes for a function to repeat itself, in our case it is 4

W=2pi/4=pi/2

considering all of the above

V(t)=2020+508sin((pi/2)t))

Answer:

v(t) = 2274 + 254 sin(\frac{\pi}{2}t)

Explanation:

V_{min} = 2020 ml

V_{max} = 2020 + 508 =2528 mL

Assuming the given function is cyclic function

v_{avg} = \frac{v_{max} - v_{min}}{2} = \frac{2528 + 2020}{2} = 2274 ml

Amplitude = A = \frac{V_{max} - V_{min}}{2}= \frac{2528 - 2020}{2}= 254

time period is 4 sec

we know that \omega  =  \frac{2\pi}{t} = \frac{2\pi}{4} = \frac{pi}{2} rad/s

so function is

V(t) = V_{avg} + Asin (\omega t})

v(t) = 2274 + 254 sin(\frac{\pi}{2}t)

Three diffrent examples of accelerated motion
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The three different examples of the accelerated motion are Falling/dropping of ball, Standing in circular rotating space, moving around the circle.

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity, which is related to the speed and direction in which the object is travelling. Hence, speeding up, slowing down and turning are few types . A simple example would be dropping a ball: as it falls its speed increases, which is a type of acceleration. A more complicated example would be standing in a circular, rotating space station. A point on the station moves in a circle, meaning that as it travels it must be turning (to remain in circular motion) making this another example of acceleration

The greatest variation in size, mass, and luminosity occurs in:.
Sidana [21]

The greatest variation in size, mass, and luminosity occurs in elliptical galaxies.

<h3>What is Variation?</h3>

This is defined as the difference from the norm which is exhibited by objects.

In the solar system, variation in features such as size, mass, and luminosity occurs mostly in elliptical galaxies due to presence of array of stars thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

Basalt, formed from magma, contains iron-rich minerals. Why is this important?
Svetach [21]
Iron is a magnetic metal, and it is essential to the Earth's magnetic field!
Essentially it "records" (stores the information, maintains) the direction and orientation of the magnetic field.

Among others, the magnetic field protects the Earth from dangerous cosmic rays.

Why is an object's density expressed as a relationship between two units?
vfiekz [6]
Probably for kind of the same reason that speed is expressed as a
relationship between two units.  You know, like miles per hour .

I guess the only reason is because no single unit has been invented
to describe density.

The rate of doing work or using energy would always be expressed
as a relationship between two units ... we would say that the rate of
work is "(so many) joules per second".  But the "watt" was invented,
so we can say "(so many) watts" instead.

So I guess you're right.  Density could be simpler to describe
if we only had a unit for it.  Then we wouldn't have to say "(so many)
grams per cubic centimeter".  We would just say "(so many) (new unit)".

Let's try it out:
 
"Uhhh, pardon me Professor . . . I've been working late in the lab,
and I believe I've identified a new substance, hitherto unknown to
the scientific community, and totally unexpected.  In its pure form,
the substance appears to be pink, it smells like butterscotch, and
its density is approximately 27.4 Brianas.  I think it's time we published
these findings ... with your name as lead investigator, of course."

I like it !
