Some people say you can get HIV from insect bites. True or false? Why?

Physics
1 answer:
Murljashka [212]3 years ago
3 0
The answer is False because HIV spreads through contact between HIV-infected blood or blood-contaminated body fluids and broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes. Deep, open-mouth kissing if both partners have sores or bleeding gums and blood from the HIV-positive partner enters the HIV-negative partner's bloodstream.

The total amount of fresh water on earth is estimated to be 3.73 x 10^8 km^3. What is this volume in cubic meters? in cubic feet
Burka [1]
One km^3 is 1,000,000,000 m^3=10^9 m^3 hence 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73 10^17 m^3

One meter is 3.28084 feet hence 1 m^3 is (3.28084)^3 feet

Thus 3.73 10^8 km^3 is 3.73*35.315 10^17 = 132 cubic feet

Are switches connected in series or parallel with the devices they control?
andrezito [222]

In some unusual applications of unusual components, I can think of unusual electric circuits where a switch may be connected in parallel with a device in order to control it.  

But I'm sure this is not what's intended in a question on the high-school level.  

Until you get in a situation with tricky applications in a tricky circuit, your switches will always be connect <em>in series</em> with the devices they control.

A 150kg motorcycle starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate along a distance of 350m. The applied force is 250N and t
notsponge [240]

A) The net force on the motorbike is 205.9 N

B) The acceleration of the motorbike is 1.37 m/s^2

C) The final speed is 5.2 m/s

D) The elapsed time is 3.80 s

Explanation:

A)

There are two forces acting on the motorbike:

- The applied force, F = 250 N, forward

- The frictional force, F_f, backward

The frictional force can be written as

F_f = \mu mg

where

\mu=0.03 is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m=150 kg is the mass of the motorbike

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Therefore the net force is given by

\sum F = F - F_f = F - \mu mg

And substituting, we find

\sum F=250 - (0.03)(150)(9.8)=205.9 N

2)

The acceleration of the motorbike can be found by using Newton's second law, which states that the net force is equal to the product between mass and acceleration:

\sum F = ma

where

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, we have

\sum F = 205.9 N is the net force

m = 150 kg is the mass

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{205.9}{150}=1.37 m/s^2

C)

Since the motion of the motorbike is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance covered

For this motorbike, we have:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=1.37 m/s^2

s = 350 m

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0+2(1.37)(9.8)}=5.2 m/s

4)

For this part of the problem, we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the elapsed time

Here we have:

v = 5.2 m/s

u = 0

a=1.37 m/s^2

Solving for t, we find

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{5.2-0}{1.37}=3.80 s

Which phrase best describes wave motion
White raven [17]

Answer:

I would describe wave motion as “propagating oscillations” as a general phrase.

For something like water waves, I would say “water waves are oscillations of the surface of a body of water that propagate in a given direction.”

For electromagnetic waves I would say “An electromagnetic wave is an oscillating disturbance of the electric and magnetic fields that propagates through space.”

daser333 [38]
Firstly, we must find the equation the speed, it can be obtained by the derivative of x =<span>x = 4.0t2 - 32t + 36, it means v= 8.0t-32. the particule stops means v= 0, and 0= 8.0t-32, which implies 8t=32, so t=4s, and then x(t=4) = 4.0(4)^2 - 32(4) + 36= - 28m
so x = - 28 m</span>
