Explain why the radiative zone of the sun is hotter than the corona of the sun

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: Because The spectra provided evidence to explain why the sun's atmosphere is so much hotter than its surface. ... Clear evidence now suggests that the heating mechanism depends on regular, but intermittent explosive bursts of heat, rather than on continuous gradual heating.

The binding of acetylcholine to its receptor at the neuromuscular junction causes the opening of a

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: opening of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels.

Explanation:

Neuromuscular junction is a special junction formed between a motor neurone and a muscle fibre. The junction is fortified with nerves and receptors that helps in the transmission of signals from the motor neurone to the muscle fibre in order to bring about the desired voluntary movements through muscular contraction.

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor are activated through the binding of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This action leads to influx of sodium ions to accomplish endplate potential.

A student is told to use 20.0 g of sodium chloride to make an aqueous solution that has a concentration of 10.0 g/L (grams of so

Stells [14]

Answer:

she should add solute to the solvent

Explanation:

Given data :

Mass of the sodium chloride, = 20.0 g

Concentration of the solution = 10 g/L

Volume of 20.0 g of sodium chloride = 7.50 mL

Now, from the concentration, we can conclude that for 10 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 1 L

thus, for 20 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 2 L or 2000 mL

also,

Volume of solution = Volume of solute(sodium chloride) + volume of solvent (water)

thus,

2000 mL = 7.5 mL + volume of solvent (water)

volume of water = (2000 - 7.5) mL

volume of water = 1992.5 mL

volume of water = 199.25 L ≈ 199 L

Telephone signals are often transmitted over long distances by microwaves. What is the frequency of microwave radiation with a w

amm1812

Answer:

1) f= 8.6 GHz

2) t= 0.2 ms

Explanation:

Since microwaves are electromagnetic waves, they move at the same speed as the light in vacuum, i.e. 3*10⁸ m/s.
There exists a fixed relationship between the frequency (f) , the wavelength (λ) and the propagation speed in any wave, as follows:

$v = \lambda * f (1)$

Replacing by the givens, and solving for f, we get:

$f =\frac{c}{\lambda} =\frac{3e8m/s}{0.035m} = 8.57e9 Hz (2)$

⇒ f = 8.6 Ghz (with two significative figures)

Assuming that the microwaves travel at a constant speed in a straight line (behaving like rays) , we can apply the definition of average velocity, as follows:

$v =\frac{d}{t} (3)$

where v= c= speed of light in vacuum = 3*10⁸ m/s

d= distance between mountaintops = 52 km = 52*10³ m

Solving for t, we get:

$t = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{52e3m}{3e8m/s} = 17.3e-5 sec = 0.173e-3 sec = 0.173 ms (4)$

⇒ t = 0.2 ms (with two significative figures)

A ship sails east from a harbor for 16 nautical miles. it then sails in the direction of n 55 e for 18 nautical miles. how far i

Katena32 [7]

Use the Law of Cosines, where you have a triangle with included angle of 145 degrees and sides of 16 and 18. You are then solving the equation: 

d^2 = 16^2 + 18^2 - 2(16)(18)cos(145)
