What happens if the air pressure in your throat and outside body is less than the air pressure in your middle ear when you swall

Answer:

When the air pressure in the throat and outside the body is less than the air pressure in the middle ear, barotrauma occurs.

Explanation:

Ear barotrauma is a medical condition that describes discomfort in the ear which is caused by pressure differences in the inner and outer ear drum.

Usually, the air pressure in the middle ear is the same as the air pressure in the throat and outside the body.

When we swallow, the eustachian tube opens up and air flows out of and into the middle ear, this balances the pressure. But if the eustachian tube is blocked, the air pressure in the throat and outer body become different from the air pressure in the middle ear.

Two particles, each with charge 55.3 nC, are located on the y axis at y 24.9 cm and y -24.9cm (a) Find the vector electric field
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Ex = kq 2x / ∛ (x² + y²)²  and  Ex = 2008 N / C

Explanation:

a)   The electric field is a vector quantity, so we must find the field for each particle and add them vectorially, as the whole process is on the X axis,

The equation for the electric field produced by a point charge is

         E = k q / r²

With r the distance between the point charge and the positive test charge

We look for each electric field

Particle 1.  Located at y = 24.9 m, let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find the distance

          r² = x² + y²

          E1 = k q / (x² + y²)

Particle 2.   located at x = -24.9 m

          r² = x² + y²

          E2 = k q / (x² + y²)

We can see that the two fields are equal since the particles have the same charge and coordinate it and that is squared.

In the attached one we can see that the Y components of the electric fields created by each particle are always the same and it is canceled, so we only have to add the X components of the electric fields. Let's use Pythagoras' theorem to find

Let's measure the angle from axis X

     cos θ = CA / H = x / (x2 + y2) ½

     E1x = E1 cos θ

      E2x = = E1 cos θ

The resulting field

      Ey = 0

      Ex = E1x + E2x 2 E1x

      Ex = 2 k q / (x² + y²) cos θ) = 2 k q / (x² + y²) x / √(x² + x²)

      Ex = kq 2x / ∛ (x² + y²)²

b) For this part we substitute the numerical values

      Ex = 8.99 10⁹ 55.3 10⁻⁹ x / (x² + 0.249 2) ³/₂

      Ex = 497.15   x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

Point where can the value of the electric field x = 38.1 cm = 0.381 m

       Ex = 497.15 0.381 / (0.381² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

       Ex = 497.15 0.381 / (0.1452 + 0.062) 3/2 = 189.41 / 0.2072 3/2

       Ex= 189.41 /0.0943

       Ex = 2008 N / C

c)  E = 1.00 kN / C = 1000 N / C

To solve this part we must find x in the equation

       Ex = 497.15 x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

Let's use some arithmetic

       Ex / 497.15 = x / (x² + 0.062)  ³/₂  

       [Ex / 497.15] ²/₃ = [x / (x² + 0.062) 3/2] ²/₃

       ∛[Ex / 497.15]² = (∛x²) / (x² + 0.062)                 (1)

The roots of this equation are the solution to the problem,

     

For Ex = 1.00 kN / C = 1000 N / C

 

      [Ex / 497.15] 2/3 = 1000 / 497.15) 2/3 = 1,312

       1.312 = (∛x² ) / (x² + 0.062)

       1.312 (x² + 0.062) = ∛x²

       1.312 X² - ∛x² + 1.312 0.062 = 0

       1.312 X² - ∛x² + 0.0813 = 0

An earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth. A P-wave travels at 9 000 m/s a
Cerrena [4.2K]

Assuming constant speeds, the P-wave covers a distance <em>d</em> in time <em>t</em> such that

9000 m/s = <em>d</em>/(60 <em>t</em>)

while the S-wave covers the same distance after 1 more minute so that

5000 m/s = <em>d</em>/(60(<em>t</em> + 1))

Now,

<em>d</em> = 540,000 <em>t</em>

<em>d</em> = 300,000(<em>t</em> + 1) = 300,000 <em>t</em> + 300,000

Solve for <em>t</em> in the first equation and substitute it into the second equation, then solve for <em>d</em> :

<em>t</em> = <em>d</em>/540,000

<em>d</em> = 300,000/540,000 <em>d</em> + 300,000

4/9 <em>d</em> = 300,000

<em>d</em> = 675,000

So the earthquake center is 675,000 m away from the seismic station.
