After the body has begun shivering, what explains why it would stop shivering?

Physics
2 answers:
Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago

Answer: The internal temperature of the body is maintained by the phenomenon known as homeostasis.

Explanation: Homeostasis is the phenomenon by which the internal temperature of the body is maintained.

Once the body feels cold, it starts shivering to maintain warmth in the body by the movement of skeletal muscles.

This phenomenon of maintaining the body temperature is known as Homeostasis. Once the body temperature is maintained shivering stops.

The body shivers to produce energy and it uses the energy to keep it warm. The body would stop shivering when it has produced enough energy to keep it warm and the atmosphere around it has got warmer

A wire has a cross sectional area of 4.00 mm2 and is stretched by 0.100 mm by a certain force. How far will a wire of the same m
Nina [5.8K]

Answer: 0.05\ mm

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of wire A_1=4\ mm^2

Extension of wire \delta l=0.1\ mm

Extension in a wire is given by

\Rightarrow \delta l=\dfrac{FL}{AE}

where, E=\text{Youngs modulus}

\Rightarrow \delta_1=\dfrac{FL}{A_1E}\quad \ldots(i)

for same force, length and material

\Rightarrow \delta_2=\dfrac{FL}{A_2E}\quad \ldots(ii)

Divide (i) and (ii)

\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.1}{\delta_2}=\dfrac{A_2}{A_1}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.1\times \dfrac{4}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.05\ mm

What method has detected the most extrasolar planets so far?
Sedaia [141]
<h2>Answer: The Transit  method</h2>

Detecting extrasolar planets by direct observation (with a telescope) is a complicated task. This is because any planet constitutes an extremely dim light source compared to the star around which it orbits.

So, to detect this extremely dim source is quite difficult due to the glare of the star's light that dulls it.

In this sense, scientists and astronomers have made several methods to find these extrasolar planets, among which the most successful has been the transit method.

This method is based on <u>astronomical transit</u>, a phenomenon in which a body (a planet in this case) passes in front of a larger one (the star), blocking (eclipsing) its vision to some extent.

It should be noted that this is the method currently used in the search for extrasolar planets. Space agencies such as ESA (Europe) and NASA (USA) have put into orbit satellites with extremely sensitive photometric sensors to observe even the smallest variations of intensity of a star due to the passage of a planet.

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then
mash [69]
For this case you must first know the definition of density.
 D = m / v
 where,
 m: mass
 v: volume.
 You can then write the following hypothesis:
 IF you know two physical characteristics of an object then you can determine the density. First weigh the object, THEN measure its volume BECAUSE the density is the quotient between the mass and the volume of an object.
