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.

Answer:

A= 148.92  m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

m= 0.04 kg

Now force in the x-direction

Fx= - dU/dx

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dx= 12 x

When x=0.4 m

dU/dx= 12 x 0.4 = 4.8

So we can say that

Fx= - 4.8 N

From Newtons law

F= m a

- 4.8 = 0.04 x a

a = -120 m/s²

Acceleration in x direction ,a = -120 m/s²

In y -direction

F= - dU/dy

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dy = 0 - 3.75 x 3 y²

When y = 0.56 m

dU/dy = - 3.75 x 3 x 0.56 x 0.56

dU/dy = - 3.52

So we can say that force in y -direction

F= 3.52 N

F= m a'

3.52 = 0.04 x a'

a'=88.2 m/s²

acceleration in y direction is 88.2 m/s²

The resultant acceleration

A=\sqrt{a^2+a'^2}

A=\sqrt{120^2+88.2^2}

A= 148.92  m/s²

if the resistance of a car headlight is 15 ohm and the current through it is 0.60, what is the voltage across the headlight?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

9 volts (assuming 0.60 is in Amperes)

Explanation:

Recall that Ohms law can be expressed as

V = IR, where

V = voltage,

I = current (given as 0.6. I'm going to assume that the units is Amperes because it is not given)

R = resistance (given as 15 ohm)

substituting the above values into the formula

V = IR

V = (0.6)(15)

V = 9 Volts
