Bill was really bored at work. During his break, he decided to check his carotid artery. He placed both fingers on his neck and

contacted his pulse. He counted for 20 seconds. In those 20 seconds, Bill had a total of 24 beats. What is Bill's BPM?

Answer:

72 beats per minute

Explanation:

Heart beat causes the flow of blood round the body. This heart beat can be felt as pulse in the wrist or neck carotid artery. The heart rate which is measured in beats per minute (BPM) is used to determine the number of heart beats per minute.

You can calculate your BPM using the carotid artery found in the neck close to the windpipe.

Given that for 20 seconds, Bill had a total of 24 beats.

60 seconds = 1 minute.

Hence,  Bill's BPM = (24 beats per 20 seconds) * (60 seconds per minute) = 72 beats per minute

<span>So we wan't to know what happens during nuclear fusion where we have 12 atoms. Nuclear fusion is a nuclear process where 2 or more nuclei will form 1 or more different nuclei with a release of energy. So if we start with 12 atoms, the most likely result will be 6 atoms. </span>

Weight of the mass is the tension in the string if the turntable is held fixed, with the mass hanging from the pulley

Weight is a force that acts at all times on all objects near Earth. The Earth pulls on all objects with a force of gravity downward toward the center of the Earth. Weight (symbolized w ) is a quantity representing the force exerted on a particle or object by an acceleration field, particularly the gravitational field of the Earth at the surface.

The tension force is defined as the force that is transmitted through a rope, string or wire when pulled by forces acting from opposite sides. The tension force is directed over the length of the wire and pulls energy equally on the bodies at the ends.

The direction of tension is the pull which is given the name tension. Thus, the tension will point away from the mass in the direction of the string/rope. In case of the hanging mass, the string pulls it upwards, so the string/rope exerts an upper force on the mass and the tension will be in the upper side.

Tension will act opposite the the weight of the mass attached in order to maintain equilibrium .

The weight of a luggage is 69.3 N on the moon. Find its weight on the Earth.​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

415.8N

Explanation:

Given:

weight of a luggage = 69.3 N

But

✓(weight on the Earth) is equivalent to 6 times weight if the moon.

✓Then, weight on the Earth) =( 69.3N × 6)

✓weight on the Earth) = 415.8N
