Explain why a person who has runny nose is unable to detect smells clearly.

2 answers:

5 0

This is because the nasal mucus is blocking the nasal passage, meaning that if there is anything that he/she is trying to smell will be blocked by the mucus and will not be able to go down into the nasal passage where the smells are detected.

If you have a runny nose then the mucus will block the path that smell goes through. So if you are trying to smell a flower then you will have a hard time because the mucus is in the way, or blocking the entrance path. Hope this helps:)

Starting from rest, a dragster travels a straight 1/4 mi racetrack in 7.10 s with constant acceleration. What is its velocity wh

Gennadij [26K]

268.6567 mph is its velocity when it crosses the finish line

d=(v1+v2 /2) x t

.25=(0+v2 /2) x 6.7/3600 hours

900=v2/2 x 6.7

v2=268.6567 mph as the speed with which the dragster crosses the finish

<h3>When acceleration is not zero, can speed remain constant?</h3>

The answer is that an accelerated motion can have a constant speed. Consider a particle travelling uniformly around a circle; it experiences acceleration since the motion's direction is changing, but it maintains a constant speed along the tangential axis throughout the motion.

Acceleration is the frequency of a change in velocity. Acceleration is a vector with magnitude and direction, much as velocity. For instance, if a car is moving in a straight path and speeding up, it is said to have forward (positive) acceleration, and if it is slowing down, it is said to have backward (negative) acceleration.

Question 5. Our results support the idea that if left to freely oscillate, a system will vibrate at a natural frequency that dep

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

(b) In ideal condition we neglect mass of spring but in real springs mass of spring adds another factor to its time period.

since we are adding a factor of mass to the system, and frequency being inversely proportional to squared root of mass, we can come to a general conclusion that it effectively reduces the natural frequency .

At sunset, red light travels horizontally through the doorway in the western wall of your beach cabin, and you observe the light

Nady [450]

Answer:

$9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m$

Explanation:

For light passing through a single slit, the position of the nth-minimum from the central bright fringe in the diffraction pattern is given by

$y=\frac{n \lambda D}{d}$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

D is the distance of the screen from the slit

d is the width of the slit

In this problem, we have

$\lambda=700 nm = 7.00\cdot 10^{-7}m$ is the wavelength of the red light

D = 14 m is the distance of the screen from the doorway

d = 1.0 m is the width of the doorway

Substituting n=1 into the equation, we find the distance between the central bright fringe and the first-order dark fringe (the first minimum):

$y=\frac{(1)(7.00\cdot 10^{-7} m)(14 m)}{1.0 m}=9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m$

Que fuerza se obtendrá en el émbolo mayor de una prensa hidraúlica cuya área es de 167 cm2, cuando el émbolo menor de área igual

stiv31 [10]

Responder:

Explicación:

Según el principio pascal, establece que la presión aplicada en un punto sobre un líquido en un recipiente cerrado es igual a igual a la presión en cualquier otro punto del líquido.

Matemáticamente Presión ejercida por el pistón más pequeño = Presión ejercida por el pistón más grande.

La presión es la relación entre la fuerza y su área de sección transversal.

P = Fuerza / Área de sección transversal

Sea P1 la presión sobre el pistón más pequeño y P2 la presión ejercida por el pistón más grande.

Como P1 = P2 entonces;

F1 / A1 = F2 / A2

Dado F1 = 450N, A1 = 14 cm², A2 = 167 cm² y F2 =?

Sustituyendo el valor conocido en la fórmula para obtener el requerido, tenemos;

$\frac{450}{14} = \frac{F2}{167}\\ \\Cross\ multiplying\\\\14*F_2 = 450*167\\\\14F_2 = 75,150\\\\F_2 = \frac{75,150}{14} \\\\F_2 = 5,367.9N$

$F_2 \approx 5, 368N$

Por lo tanto, la fuerza que se obtendrá en el pistón más grande de una prensa hidráulica cuya área es de 167 cm² es aproximadamente 5,368N,

A point charge is placed at each corner of square with side leanth a. The charges all have same magnitude q. My question, What i

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

E = k q / a² (1.3535) (- i ^ + j ^)

E = k q / a² 1.914 , θ’= 135

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law where we must add as vectors

E_total = E₁₂ i ^ + E₁₄ j ^ + E₁₃

Let's look for the value of each term

On the x axis

E₁₂ = k q / a²

On the y axis

E₁₄ = k q / a²

For the charge in the opposite corner we look for the distance

d = √ (a² + a²) = a √2

let's look for the field

E₁₃ = k q / d²

E₁₃ = k q / 2a²

let's use trigonometry to find the two components of this field

cos 45 = E₁₃ₓ / E₁₃

E₁₃ₓ = E₁₃ cos 45

sin 45 = E_{13y} / E₁₃

E_{13y} = E₁₃ sin 45

E₁₃ₓ = k q / 2a² cos 45

E_{13y} = k q / 2a² sin 45

let's find each component of the electric field

X axis

Eₓ = -E₁₂ - E₁₃ₓ

Eₓ = - k q / a² - k q / 2a² cos 45

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1 + cos 45/2)

cos 45 = sin 45 = 0.707

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1 + 0.707 / 2)

Eₓ = - k q / a² (1.3535)

Y axis

E_y = E₁₄ + E_{13y}

E_y = k q / a² + k q / 2a² sin 45

E_y = k q / a² (1 + sin 45/2)

E_y = k q / a² (1.3535)

we can give the results in two ways

E = k q / a² (1.3535) (- i ^ + j ^)

In modulus and angle form, let's use Pythagoras' theorem for the angle

E = √ (Eₓ² + E_y²)

E = k q / a² 1.3535 √2

E = k q / a² 1.914

we use trigonometry for the angle

tan θ = E_y / Eₓ

θ = tan⁻¹ (E_y / Eₓ)

θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / -1)

θ = 45

in the third quadrant, if we measure the angle of the positive side of the x-axis

θ‘= 90 + 45

θ’= 135
