Why are viruses hard to fight
ki77a [65]

Answer:Compared to other pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses are minuscule. And because they have none of the hallmarks of living things — a metabolism or the ability to reproduce on their own, for example — they are harder to target with drugs.

A truck traveling down the highway collides with a slower moving mosquito traveling in the same direction. Which of the followin
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

B. The truck and mosquito exert the same size force on each other.

Explanation:

Newton's third law (law of action-reaction) states that

"When an object A exerts a force (action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this case, we can call

object A = the truck

object B = the mosquito

Thereforce according to Newton's third law, the force exerted by the truck on the mosquito is equal in magnitude to the force exerted by the mosquito on the truck (and in opposite direction).

The reason for which the mosquito will experience much more damage is the fact that the mosquito's mass is much smaller than the truck's mass, and since the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass:

a=\frac{F}{m}

the mosquito will experience a much larger deceleration than the truck, therefore much more damage.

A sound wave moving with a speed of 1500 m/s is sent from a submarine to the ocean floor. It reflects off the
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

the distance between the submarine and the ocean floor is 11,250 m

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the wave, v = 1500 m/s

time of motion of the wave, t = 15 s

The time taken to receive the echo is calculated as;

time \ of \ motion \ (t) = \frac{total \ distance }{speed \ of \ wave} = \frac{2d}{v}  \\\\2d = vt\\\\d = \frac{vt}{2} \\\\d = \frac{1500 \times 15}{2} \\\\d = 11,250 \ m

Therefore, the distance between the submarine and the ocean floor is 11,250 m

A wire of radius R has a current I uniformly distributed across its cross-sectional area. Ampere's law is used with a concentric
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Please refer to the figure.

Explanation:

The crucial point here is to calculate the enclosed current. If the current I is flowing through the whole cross-sectional area of the wire, the current density is

J = \frac{I}{\pi R^2}

The current density is constant for different parts of the wire. This idea is similar to that of the density of a glass of water is equal to the density of a whole bucket of water.

So,

J = \frac{I}{\pi R^2} = \frac{I_{enc}}{\pi r^2}\\I_{enc} = \frac{Ir^2}{R^2}

This enclosed current is now to be used in Ampere’s Law.

\mu_o I_{enc} = \int {B} \, dl

Here, \int \, dl represents the circular path of radius r. So we can replace the integral with the circumference of the path, 2\pi r.

As a result, the magnetic field is

B = \frac{\mu_0}{2\pi}\frac{Ir}{R^2}

Why are noise considerations important in optical fiber communications? 3. Describe the principle of "population inversion".
pochemuha

Answer and Explanation:

the electronic devices always have some noises present in the signal

there are some important considerations in optical fiber communications these are.

  • the noise which is contributed by transmitter are electronic random noise, low frequency noise
  • noise which is contributed by laser are relative intensity noise, mode partition noise, conversion of phase noise to amplitude noise.
  • noise contributed by photo detector are quantum shot noise, shot noise from dark current, avalanche multiplication noise.

PRINCIPLE OF POPULATION INVERSION :

The principle of population inversion is defined as for production of high percentage of simulated emission for a laser beam the number of atoms in higher state should be greater than lower energy state
