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

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements

pickupchik [31]

Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118 elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).

What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley system

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Pulleys accomplish 2 separate operations throughout the computer controlled additional benefit technologies listed elsewhere here.

Explanation:

If indeed the pulley would be connected to that same attachment point, these are named a corrected pendulum or perhaps a change in direction. Its job should be to reverse the trajectory of that same rope pull.
Unless the pulley would be connected to that same load, this same pulley seems to be a detachable as well as a mechanical additional benefit.

A straight segment of a current-carrying wire has a current element IL where I = 2.70 A and L = 3.20 cm i + 4.30 cm j. The segme

myrzilka [38]

The component of the force in negative z-direction is -0.144 N.

The given parameters;

current in the wire, I = 2.7 A
length of the wire, L = (3.2 i + 4.3j) cm
magnetic filed, B = 1.24 i

The force on the segment of the wire is calculated as follows;

$F = ILBsin(\theta)$

where;

θ is the angle wire and magnetic field

The force on the wire segment will be perpendicular in negative z-direction (applying right hand rule), so there won't be any x and y component of the force.

The angle between the wire and the magnetic field is calculated as follows;

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{y}{x} )\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{4.3}{3.2} )\\\\\theta = 53.3 \ ^0$
