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

Matter behaving like a wave rather than like a particle is best illustrated by which phenomenon?
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The photoelectric effect is about electrons being ejected from metals when light is shined on metals. The electrons do not behave like waves in the photoelectric effect. Black body radiation is all about the radiation emitted by warm bodies and not about those bodies behaving like waves. The emission spectra of atoms is all about what light is given off by atoms when electrons in those atoms jump down to lower energy levels from higher levels. That also has nothing to do with matter behaving as a wave. Interference is classically defined as the generation of a new wave with an amplitude modulated according to the waves that interfere to form that new wave. Note its emphasis on the wave part.</span>

How are mass, distance and gpe related
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It is direct proportionality. The greater the mass, the greater is the gravitational potential energy. The equation for GPE is : GPE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height above the ground. As you can see GPE is directly proportional to mass, and height. KT.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is a function of both the mass of your system and the mass of the thing generating the gravity field around your system.

The relationship is linear, which means that if you multiply or divide one of the masses by some number but leave everything else the same, you multiply or divide the potential energy by the same number. A 3kg mass has three times the gravitation potential energy of a 1kg mass, if placed in the same location.
