<u>Answer</u>:

<em>Dog drinking water after it feels thirsty is an example of an organism responding to its internal environment to maintain homeostasis. </em>

<u>Explanation</u>:

The regulation of temperature of the body of an organism is called homeostasis. <em>Warm blooded organisms depend on their internal environment to maintain homeostasis while cold blooded organisms</em> completely depend on their external environment to maintain homeostasis.

The <em>body temperatures of warm blooded organisms maintain its constancy despite changing temperature of the external environment</em>.  But the case of cold blooded organisms is different.

Their body temperature completely depends on the external environment and thus they have<em> several behavioral and physiological adaptations to maintain their body temperatures </em>at the comfortable level.

<em>In this example dog is a warm blooded animal and it drinks water to maintain homeostasis since water helps in thermal regulation of its body. </em>

Answer:

The larger resistance value is 144 ohms and the smaller resistance value is 48 ohms.

Explanation:

Given that Resistance, R, is inversely proportional to Power, the largest value of power will yield the smallest value of resistance and vice versa.

The largest value of resistance will be:

P = V²/R

R = V²/P

R = 120²/100

R = 144 ohms

The smallest value of resistance will be:

R = 120²/300

R = 48 ohms

The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Which statement about those waves is true?
Vladimir [108]

Answer: The correct answer for this question is letter (B) The electromagnetic waves reach Earth, while the mechanical waves do not. The sun generates both mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Space, between the sun and the earth is a nearly vacuum. So mechanical wave can not spread out in the vacuum.

Hope this helps!

Which image illustrates why dark clothing helps to keep you warm on a cool, sunny day?
xeze [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

I suppose it has to do with the way the diagram is drawn. The heat does not reflect which makes both A and B incorrect.

C would have nothing to do with either reflection or refraction.

That only leaves D which is the answer.

3. What is the difference between an emission spectrum and an absorption spectrum? What is the Bohr model of the atom, and how d
pishuonlain [190]
The Bohr model resembles a planetary system in which the negatively-charged electrons orbit a small and very dense, positively-charged nucleus at the atom's center.
The electrons are held in orbit by the Coulomb (electrical) force between the positively-charged nucleus and the negatively-charged electrons.

The electrons cannot occupy just any orbital radius.
Only orbits with a very specific set of energy values are permitted (which all atoms of a given element have in common and are unique to that element).
The lowest energy (or ground state) corresponds to orbit closest to the nucleus and photons with specific amounts of electromagnetic radiation are absorbed or emitted when an electron moves from one orbit to another (absorbed to move further up the permitted levels and away from the nucleus)


An atomic line spectrum is the whole range of specific photon radiation frequencies that an element can emit or absorb as it's electrons move between the energy levels allowed in those atoms.

The emissions correspond with electrons descending 'down' their energy levels, with the energy differences being carried away by photons with the appropriate frequency. Consequently an emission spectra is a series of specific, single color lines (against a black background) for each of the emitted frequencies.

Photon absorption provides the energy for electrons to 'climb' the set of energy levels for that element. So, putting electrons into higher energy states within an atom.
When the absorbed photons are removed from incident light containing the full spectrum, their absence is seen as a series of fine black lines on an otherwise continuous spectrum background.

Two forces, F1 and F2, are at an angle Θ. The magnitude of F1 is 2 dynes and that of F2 is 3 dynes. If the magnitude of the resu
Igoryamba

Answer:

75.5°

Explanation:

If we say F₁ is horizontal (0°), and F₂ is at angle θ, then the components are:

F₁ₓ = 2

F₁ᵧ = 0

F₂ₓ = 3 cos θ

F₂ᵧ = 3 sin θ

So the components of the resultant vector are:

Rₓ = 2 + 3 cos θ

Rᵧ = 3 sin θ

We know the magnitude of R, so using Pythagorean theorem:

4² = (2 + 3 cos θ)² + (3 sin θ)²

16 = 4 + 12 cos θ + 9 cos² θ + 9 sin² θ

16 = 4 + 12 cos θ + 9

3 = 12 cos θ

cos θ = 1/4

θ ≈ 75.5°

Alternatively, you can draw a diagram and use law of cosine to find the internal angle, then subtract from 180 to find θ.
