Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

230 N

Explanation:

At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force  T  is given by the branch.

The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require

a centripetal force  in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows

T - mg = m v² / R

R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s

T =  mg -  mv² / R

T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60  { R is length of hand of ape. }

T = 83.3 + 145.06

= 228.36

= 230 N ( approximately )

If the given wave has a frequency of 100 Hz, what frequency will the sixth harmonic have?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

600Hz

Explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz

Both the lens and the cornea of the eye have a primary function of
3241004551 [841]

Answer: B. bending light

Explanation:

The phenomenom of vision in human eye is thanks to refraction (when light changes its direction as it passes through one medium to another), and this is what the cornea and the lens do.

When the ray of light encounters the eye, the first thing it finds is the <u>cornea</u>, which<u> bends this ray and begins to form an image</u>, then light passes through the <u>pupil</u>, which is in charge of regulating the amount of light that enters in the eye.  

After light travels through pupil it passes through the <u>lens</u>, where <u>the rays of light change the direction again in order to focus the formed image on the retina. </u>

At this point it is important to note the formed image is downward, then the retina transforms light into electrical impulses that are sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally the brain interprets these messages, and forms a right upward image.

In the image attached these parts can be seen.
