Answer:
sensory adaption
Explanation:
Sensory adaption is the phenomenon where the intensity of a stimulus experienced by an organism decreases after a certain amount of exposure to the stimulus. This happens in order for us to pay attention to other stimulus.
When you are driving with the windows down and listening to music you are subjected to a lot of stimuli. Here, most of our attention needs to be on driving. So, our brain drowns all the other unneccessary stimuli like the music.
When you enter the car again where the other stimuli which were present while driving are absent, all your attention is diverted to the music. So, your're ears hurt.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let the bullets speed be V .
Kinetic energy = 1/2 mV² where m is mass of bullet
This energy is converted into heat Q which raises the temperature of target by Δ T .
Q = mc Δ T , m is mass , c is specific heat and Δ T is rise in temperature .
heat absobed by bullet
= .0075 x 130 x .040
= .039 J
heat absorbed by block of wood
= 17.5 x 1700 x .04
= 1190 J
Total heat absorbed
= 1190.039 J
So kinetic energy = heat absobed
= 1/2 x .0075 x V² = 1190.039
V² = 317343.73
V = 563.33 m /s
Answer:
option c) 2 is the right answer
Answer:
P₁ = 219.3 Pa
Explanation:
This fluid mechanics problem, we can use that the pressure is distributed with the same value throughout the system, which is Pascal's principle.
Let's use the subinidce1 for the small diameter and the subscript 2 for the larger diameter.
P₁ = P₂
pressure is defined by
P = F / A
we subtitute
F₁ / A₁ = F₂ / A₂
F₁ = F₂ A₁ / A₂
the area in a circle is
A = π r² = π d² / 4
we substitute
F₁ = F₂ (d₁ / d₂)²
we calculate
F₁ = 17640 (2/32)²
F₁ = 68.9 N
Having the force to be applied we can find the air pressure on the small plunger
P₁ = F₁ / A₁
P₁ = F₁ 4 / π d₁²
let's calculate
P₁ = 68.9 4 / (π 0.02²)
P₁ = 219.3 Pa
Answer:
decrease by a factor 10
Explanation:
The parallax angle of a close star is given by
where
p is the parallax angle
d is the distance of the star from Earth, in parsecs
From the formula we see that the parallax angle is inversely proportional to the distance.
In this problem, the distance of the star is increased by a factor 10:
d' = 10 d
so the new parallax angle would be
So, the parallax angle would decrease by a factor 10.
