Why do you need to breath faster at the top of a mountain

1 answer:

6 0

Because of the higher elevation. As much as we go away from earth by increasing altitude, there will occur lacoccuren. due to this, we need to breathe fast to get suffient oxygen by time at top of the mountain. We breathe faster at the top of a tall mountain due to a natural reflex. As we go higher up a mountain, the density of air and oxygen decreases, i.e. the amount of oxygen in the air decreases along with other gases. Therefore, to maintain the regular supply of oxygen, the body breathes faster. If we go too high without oxygen tanks, we could fall unconscious and die within 8 minutes due to oxygen deprivation.

Hope this helps! let me know if you need anything else!!

A Heavy crate applied a force of 1500 N on a 25m2 piston. What force needs to be applied on a 0.8m2 piston to lift the crate?

Aleks04 [339]

25/1500 is equal to 0.8/x
0.8*1500 is equal to 1200
1200/25 is equal to 48 N

A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

$v_x=149\ m/s$

In the y axis

$v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}$

The resultant velocity is given by

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s$

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

A train moves from rest to a speed of 25 m/s in 30.0 seconds. What is the acceleration?

fredd [130]

Answer:

$a = 0.83\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

$v_f=v_o+a.t$

Where:

vf = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a = Constant acceleration

t = Elapsed time

It's known a train moves from rest (vo=0) to a speed of vf=25 m/s in t=30 seconds. It's required to calculate the acceleration.

Solving for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

Substituting:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{25-0}{30}$

$\boxed{a = 0.83\ m/s^2}$

Each time the heart beats,what does it do to the blood

Tom [10]

Your blood runs through your blood stream, every vein in your body. without that heartbeat the blood would not make it to the required places it needs to run to and you will lose oxygen and parts of your body and organs will shut down.
