Answer

given,

mass of the ski = 75 Kg

speed of the skier, v = 3 m/s

time = 1.50 min = 90 s

angle of inclination, θ = 40°

distance = s x t

              = 3 x 90 = 270 m

a) W = F. d cos θ

   W = mg. d cos θ

   W = 75 x 9.8 x 270 x cos 40°

    W = 152021.52 J

work is done by the ski lift is equal to  152021.52 J

b) Power extended by the ski

 Power = \dfrac{Work\ done}{time}

Power = \dfrac{152021.52}{90}

      P = 1689.13 Watt.

power is expended by the ski lift is equal to 1689.13 W.

Reuptake refers to the...
Arada [10]

Reuptake refers to the REABSORPTION of excess neurotransmitter molecules by a sending neuron (Option b).

Reuptake is the mechanism by which cells reabsorb chemical messengers produced and secreted by them. In nerve terminals, reuptake is used to reabsorb released neurotransmitters.

The reuptake mechanism is exploited in therapeutics for the development of target drugs and treatments.

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that acts to stabilize different emotions such as mood, feelings of well-being, appetite and happiness.

For example, serotonin reuptake inhibitors which are capable of blocking the reuptake of serotonin to modulate serotonin brain levels have recently been developed.

what happens to light when it falls upon a material that has a natural frequency equal to the frequency of the light?
mixas84 [53]

The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

What is energy?
In physics, energy is the quantitative quality that is transmitted to the a body or a physical system, and is discernible in the work performed as well as in the form of light and heat. The law of conservation states that although energy can change its form, it cannot be created or destroyed. Energy is indeed a conserved quantity. The International System of Units' (SI's) joule is the measurement unit for energy (J). A moving object's kinetic energy, a solid object's elastic energy, chemical energy caused by chemical reactions, and the potential energy that an object stores (for instance because of its position inside a field) are examples of common forms of energy.

When light falls upon a material that has a natural frequency equal to the frequency of the light, the light will be absorbed by the material. This is due to resonance, which occurs when the frequency of the light matches the natural frequency of the material. The energy from the light is transferred to the material, causing it to vibrate and absorb the light.

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.
