How does the skin help regulate body temperature? HELP FAST

Chemistry
1 answer:
Gnom [1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

1. The body's immense blood supply (when blood vessels dilate or become larger heat loss occurs) When the blood vessels constrict it holds in heat

2. The skins blood supply also helps maintain body temperature (helps maintain homeostasis which is the "normal" state of our body)

3. Humidity in the air effects thermoregulation (heat regulation in the body) by limiting sweat evaporation (usually sweat evaporates into the environment when the humidity is low because the air has low "water levels" per say while you have high "water levels" because of your sweat

A soccer player applies a force of 56.6 N to a soccer ball while kicking it. If the ball has a mass of 0.46 kg, what is the acce
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

a=123.04\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Force applied to a soccer player, F = 56.6 N

The mass of the ball, m = 0.46 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the soccer ball. The force acting on the ball is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{56.6 }{0.46 }\\\\a=123.04\ m/s^2

So, the required solution is 123.04\ m/s^2.

Ethanedioic acid, a compound that is present in many vegetables, has a molar mass of 90.04 g/mol and a composition of 26.7% Carb
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Empirical CHO2

Molecular C2H2O4

Explanation:

To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.

Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:

C = 26.7/12 = 2.225

H = 2.2/1 = 2.2

O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375

We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case

C = 2.25/2.2 = 1

H = 2.2/2.2 = 1

O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2

We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows

[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04

45n = 90.04

n = 90.04/45 = 2

The molecular formula is :

C2H2O4

An atom has 8 electrons and a mass of 17. What would the correct symbol be?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

O₈¹⁷

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

In given statement there are 8 electrons it means the atomic number of given atom is 8 so it would oxygen. The atomic mass of oxygen is 16 while in given statement mass is 17 it means it is the isotope of oxygen that have one more neutron than oxygen 16.

Isotope of an element have same atomic number but different atomic mass due to different number of neutrons.

an atom has 79 protons, 78 electrons and a mass number of 118. how many neutrons does this atom have​
igomit [66]

Answer:

39

Explanation:

Electrons weigh almost nothing, so their mass doesn't really matter for these types of problems. Just subtract 118-79 to find the remaining mass which is for the neutrons.
