Answer:

Thanks to the rod and cone cells in our eyes, our brains can use light to build images. Recent studies identified a third type of cell that responds to light and dark. Three research groups have now confirmed that melanopsin is the pigment that this cell-type uses, opening possible avenues for treating blind people.

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid

serg [7]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is $r_x=140 km$

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is $r_y=581 km$

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

$F_x=F_y$

$\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}$

cancel out the common terms we get

$\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581$

Car A is traveling west at 40 mi/h and car B is traveling north at 40 mi/h. Both are headed for the intersection of the two road

Gwar [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h, $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h

The negative sign indicates that x and y are decreasing.

We have to find $\frac{dz}{dt}$ . Equation for the given variables according to the Pythagoras theorem is as follows.

$z^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}$

Now, we will differentiate each side w.r.t 't' as follows.

$2z\frac{dz}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}$

or, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

So, when x = 4 mi, and y = 3 mi then z = 5 mi.

As, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

= $\frac{1}{5}(4 \times (-40) + 3 \times (-40))$

= $\frac{-140 - 120}{5}$

= 52

Thus, we can conclude that the cars are approaching at a rate of 52 mi/h.

Two electric charges are moved so that they are twice as far apart as they had originally been. Is the force they experience fro

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The force that two particle experience is inversely proportional to the sqare of the distance, this is:

$F \ \alpha \ \frac{1}{D^{2}}$ for a distance D

If we move them so that D is doubled:

$\frac{1}{2^{2}.D^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{4} \eq \frac{1}{.D^{2} } \eq$

Then the force they experience is one fourth of the original.

The engine of a locomotive exerts a constant force of 8.1*10^5 N to accelerate a train to 68 km/h. Determine the time (in min) t

Bumek [7]

Answer:443.1 s

Explanation:

Given

Engine of a locomotive exerts a force of $8.1\times 10^5 N$

Mass of train $=1.9\times 10^7$

Final speed (v) $=68 km/h \approx 18.88 m/s$

F=ma

so $acceleration(a) =\frac{F}{m}=\frac{8.1\times 10^5}{1.9\times 10^7}$

$a=0.042631 m/s^2$

and acceleration is

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$0.042631=\frac{18.88-0}{t}$

$t=443.089 \approx 443.1 s$
