Answer:

17.8 mAs

Explanation:

The exposure maintenance formula shows that as SID increases, intensity decreases, causing a decrease in film exposure and density. The mAs is directly proportional to the square of the distance. That is as mAs increases, distance increases, and vice versa, in order to maintain image receptor exposure. It is given by:

\frac{mAs_1}{mAs_2}=\frac{D_1^2}{D_2^2}

Given that mAs₁ = original mAs = 40 mAs, D₁ original distance = 60 in, D₂ = new distance = 40 in, mAs₂ = new mAs

\frac{mAs_1}{mAs_2}=\frac{D_1^2}{D_2^2}\\\\mAs_2=\frac{mAs_1*D_2^2}{D_1^2}=\frac{40*40^2}{60^2}=17.8\\\\mAs_2=17.8\ mAs

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! Describe each Newton Law. :)
Alex

Explanation:

1st- states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. 

2nd- states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it. (most important law)

3rd- states that when two bodies interact, they apply forces to one another that are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. (law of action/reaction)

How would you compare and contrast the 3 types of friction?
vlabodo [156]
Rolling friction .<span> the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object</span>
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction

How are the spiral arms of the milky way detected?
Step2247 [10]
The spiral structure emerges when galactic clusters (open), H II regions and O & B type stars (young stars) are used as tracers. We know this to be true as other pinwheel galaxies exhibit the same patterns across these tracers as in the milky way.
