Malia has developed Type II Diabetes. When she eats, her body

Physics
1 answer:
AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct option is c.

Explanation:

Metabolism is a sum of anabolic and catabolic reactions. The body's inability to produce/synthesize enough insulin is the cause of type II diabetes. Generally, metabolism is the process in which most compounds (proteins, carbohydrates and lipids) are produced (anabolism) or broken down (catabolism) in the body. Insulin is a protein that can be produced in less amount due to metabolic disorder in the body.

Maria's disease means she already has an exponentially high amount of blood sugar against the required insulin to balance it out, hence the disease already slowed down her rate of metabolism (catabolism) of blood sugar EXCEPT she decides to increase of metabolism by medication and exercise.

A satellite omass1000 kg moves in a circular orbit of radius 8000 km round the earth,assumed to be a sphere of radius 6400 km. C
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

ΔE = 37.8 x 10^9 J

Explanation:

The energy required will increased the potential energy and increase the kinetic energy.

As the altitude change is fairly small compared to the earth radius, we can ASSUME that the average gravity will be a good representative

Gravity acceleration at altitude would be 9.8(6400²/8000²) = 6.272 m/s²

G(avg) = (9.8 + 6.272)/2 = 8.036 m/s²

ΔPE = mG(avg)Δh = 1000(8.036)(8e6 - 6.4e6) = 12.857e9 J

The centripetal force at orbit must be equal to the gravity force

mv²/R = mg'

v²/8.0e6 = 6.272

v² = (6.272(8.0e6)) = 50.2e6 m²/s²

The maximum velocity when resting on earth at the equator is about 460 m/s.

The change in kinetic energy is

ΔKE = ½m(vf² - vi²)(1000)

ΔKE = ½(1000)(50.2e6 - 460²) = 25e9 J

Total energy increase is

25e9 + 12.857e9 = 37.8e9 J

Which describes the ability to do work or to cause change?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer: Energy

Explanation:   The ability to do work or cause change is called energy. Energy comes from many sources, and is found in two main forms. One form, potential energy, is energy that has the potential, in an object at rest, to do work later. An example of this would be a car parked at the top of a hill with its brakes on.

How much time will have passed by the time a sample of an isotope has decayed to 6.25% of its original mass if the half-life is
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

60 days.

Explanation:

Let the original mass (N₀) = 1 g

Amount remaining (N) = 6.25% of its original mass

= 6.25% × 1

= 6.25/100 × 1

= 0.0625 g

Half life (t½) = 15 days

Time (t) =?

Next, we shall determine the rate of decay. This can be obtained as follow:

Decay constant (K) = 0.693/ half life

K = 0.693 / t½

Half life (t½) = 15 days

Decay constant (K) =?

K = 0.693 / t½

K = 0.693 / 15

K = 0.0462 / day

Finally, we shall determine the time taken for the sample of the isotope to decay to 6.25% of its original mass.

This can be obtained as follow:

Original amount (N₀) = 1 g

Amount remaining (N) = 0.0625 g

Decay constant (K) = 0.0462 / day

Time (t) =?

Log (N₀/N) = Kt/2.3

Log (1/0.0625) = 0.0462 × t / 2.3

Log 16 = 0.0462 × t / 2.3

1.2041 = 0.0462 × t /2.3

Cross multiply

0.0462 × t = 1.2041 × 2.3

Divide both side by 0.0462

t = (1.2041 × 2.3)/0.0462

t = 59.9 ≈ 60 days

Therefore, the time taken for the sample of the isotope to decay to 6.25% of its original mass is 60 days

Imagine that you are in a bleachers watching a swim meet in which your friend is competing in the freestyle event. At the instan
kramer

The two possible distances that you might infer your friends swam while the lights were out are 25 m and 75 m.

Answer:

Explanation:

So you have to measure the distance covered by your friend in a time gap of 86 s. And the average velocity is given as 0.29 m/s.

Then as per the mathematical calculation of velocity, distance can be measured as the product of velocity with time interval.

Distance = Velocity × Time Interval

Distance = 0.29 m/s×86 s = 24.94 m.

So based on this calculation, one of the possible distance inferred by you will be 24.94 m.

Another possible distance can be guessed from the statements provided. So if the length of pool is 50 m, then covering halfway in opposite direction to his starting direction means completion of one full length i.e., 50 m and then halfway of that 50 m which is 25m, so totally 50 +25 = 75 m.

So in other way, we can assume that your friend has covered 75 m distance during the light out.

Thus, the two possible distances that you might infer your friends swam while the lights were out are 25 m and 75 m.
