The cochlea detects sound and is tonotopically organized

The cochlea is the auditory sense organ within the inner ear that is responsible for hearing. The cochlea is a coiled, fluid-filled tube that is split into three chambers by two membranes, Reissner's membrane and the basilar membrane

2. This diagram represents a top-down view of an experiment on a table. The 250 g and 100 g masses are falling and are pulling t
Rasek [7]

Answer:

According to the data given in the question, experiment on table two pulling and falling masses are arranged in the fig. 250  g is pulling right side and   100 g pulling down. The gravitational force is common to both the masses, so we cannot say that the block moves towards heavier mass, also the block  does not move towards the lighter mass.

Obviously, the effect of heavier mass of 250 g is more on the block, so the block moves towards right bottom corner. i.e., diagonally between two masses

You hold glider AA of mass 0.125 kgkg and glider BB of mass 0.375 kgkg at rest on an air track with a compressed spring of negli
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction  

Explanation:

Inelastic Collision

Given data

mass of glider A m1= 0.125kg

initial velocity u1=0

final velocity v1= 0.600 m/s

mass of glider B m2= 0.375kg

initial velocity u2=0

final velocity v2=?

We know that the expression for the conservation of momentum is given as

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

since u1=u2=u=0m/s

u(m1+m2)=m1v1+m2v2

substituting we have

0(0.125+0.0375)=0.125*0.6+0.375*v2

0=0.075+0.375v2

0.375v2=-0.075

v2=-0.075/0.375

v2=-0.2m/s

 The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (
pentagon [3]

Answer:

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field =E=100NC^{-1} (Radially downward)

Acceleration=0.19 ms^{-2}(Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g=3\times 10^{-3}kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of  charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

\sum F_y=ma

\sum F_y=qE-mg

Substitute the values then we get

qE-mg=ma

Substitute the values then we get

q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)

100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}

100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}

q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting  in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.
