Answer:

The peripheral system allows the brain and spinal cord to receive and send information to other areas of the body, which allows us to react to stimuli in our environment.

The nerves that make up the peripheral nervous system are actually the axons or bundles of axons from nerve cells or neurons.

The peripheral nervous system
The PNS functions via a series of reflex arc circuits with afferent and efferent arms controlled by the CNS. An understanding of the many PNS disorders requires an understanding of the complexities of the macro- and microanatomy of peripheral nerves, as well as their molecular biology, immunology, and pathophysiology

A well is located in a 20.1-m thick confined aquifer with a conductivity of 14.9 m/day and a storativity of 0.0051. If the well

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

S = 5.7209 M

Explanation:

Given data:

B = 20.1 m

conductivity ( K ) = 14.9 m/day

Storativity ( s ) = 0.0051

1 gpm = 5.451 m^3/day

calculate the Transmissibility ( T ) = K * B

= 14.9 * 20.1 = 299.5 m^2/day

Note :

t = 1

U = ( r^2* S ) / (4*T*<em> t </em>)

= ( 7^2 * 0.0051 ) / ( 4 * 299.5 * 1 ) = 2.0859 * 10^-4

Applying the thesis method

W(u) = -0.5772 - In(U)

= 7.9

next we calculate the pumping rate from well ( Q ) in m^3/day

= 500 * 5.451 m^3 /day

= 2725.5 m^3 /day

Finally calculate the drawdown at a distance of 7.0 m form the well after 1 day of pumping

S = $\frac{Q}{4\pi T} * W (u)$

where : Q = 2725.5

T = 299.5

W(u) = 7.9

substitute the given values into equation above

S = 5.7209 M

Refrigerant-134a at 400 psia has a specific volume of 0.1144 ft3/lbm. Determine the temperature of the refrigerant based on (a)

vekshin1

Answer:

a) Using Ideal gas Equation, T = 434.98°R = 435°R

b) Using Van Der Waal's Equation, T = 637.32°R = 637°R

c) T obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is T = 559.67°R = 560°R

Explanation:

a) Ideal gas Equation

PV = mRT

T = PV/mR

P = pressure = 400 psia

V/m = specific volume = 0.1144 ft³/lbm

R = gas constant = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T = 400 × 0.1144/0.1052 = 434.98 °R

b) Van Der Waal's Equation

T = (1/R) (P + (a/v²)) (v - b)

a = Van Der Waal's constant = (27R²(T꜀ᵣ)²)/(64P꜀ᵣ)

R = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T꜀ᵣ = critical temperature for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 673.6°R

P꜀ᵣ = critical pressure for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 588.7 psia

a = (27 × 0.1052² × 673.6²)/(64 × 588.7)

a = 3.596 ft⁶.psia/lbm²

b = (RT꜀ᵣ)/8P꜀ᵣ

b = (0.1052 × 673.6)/(8 × 588.7) = 0.01504 ft³/lbm

T = (1/0.1052) (400 + (3.596/0.1144²) (0.1144 - 0.01504) = 637.32°R

c) The temperature for the refrigerant-134a as obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is

T = 100°F = 559.67°R

Koch traded Machine 1 for Machine 2 when the fair market value of both machines was $60,000. Koch originally purchased Machine 1

Mariana [72]

Answer:

Koch's adjusted basis in machine 2 after the exchange is $60,000

Explanation:

given data

fair market value = $60,000

originally purchased Machine 1 = $76,900

Machine 1 adjusted basis = $40,950

Machine 2 seller purchase = $64,050

Machine 2 adjusted basis = $55,950

solution

As he exchanged machine for another at $60,000

and this exchanged in fair market

so adjusted basis = $50,000

Adjusted basis is the price of the item that affects the factors that are considered price. These factors usually include taxes, depreciation value, and other costs of acquiring and maintaining a given item. Adjusted basis is important so the right amount to sell

Adjusted basis increases when a person deducts expenses from factor taxes and operating statements

so Koch's adjusted basis in machine 2 after the exchange is $60,000

What does it take to launch a rocket in space?

Dafna11 [192]

To get rockets into orbit, they need much more thrust than the amount that will get them up to the required altitude. They also need sufficient thrust to allow them to travel with very high orbital speed. ... If speed is less than this, an object will fall back to the Earth
