Answer:

Negative intrapleural pressure is the correct answer

Explanation:

Intrapleural pressure is more subatmospheric in the uppermost part of the thorax than in the lowermost parts in the standing horse.

Air moves from a region of higher pressure to one of lower pressure.  Therefore, for air to be moved into or out of the lungs, a pressure difference between the atmosphere and the alveoli must be established. If there is no pressure difference, no airflow will occur.

Under normal circumstances, inspiration is accomplished by causing alveolar pressure to fall below atmospheric pressure. When the mechanics of breathing are being discussed, atmospheric pressure is conventionally referred to as 0 cm H2O, so lowering alveolar pressure below atmospheric pressure is known as negative-pressure breathing.

The inductance of a solenoid with 450 turns and a length of 24 cm is 7.3 mH. (a) What is the cross-sectional area of the solenoi
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: 0.43 V

Explanation:

L = [μ(0) * N² * A] / l

Where

L = Inductance of the solenoid

N = the number of turns in the solenoid

A = cross sectional area of the solenoid

l = length of the solenoid

7.3*10^-3 = [4π*10^-7 * 450² * A] / 0.24

1.752*10^-3 = 4π*10^-7 * 202500 * A

1.752*10^-3 = 0.255 * A

A = 1.752*10^-3 / 0.255

A = 0.00687 m²

A = 6.87*10^-3 m²

emf = -N(ΔΦ/Δt).........1

L = N(ΔΦ/ΔI) so that,

N*ΔΦ = ΔI*L

Substituting this in eqn 1, we have

emf = - ΔI*L / Δt

emf = - [(0 - 3.2) * 7.3*10^-3] / 55*10^-3

emf = 0.0234 / 0.055

emf = 0.43 V

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Mg or your weight.

Explanation:

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.
