Gate-control theory

<h3>What is Gate-control theory?</h3>

According to the Gate Control Theory of Pain, the spinal cord has a system that allows pain signals to be amplified in the brain before being processed at the spinal cord itself, or attenuated there.

The mechanism that allows or prevents the passage of pain signals is known as the gate. The gate may be open or it may be closed, one of two possibilities:

When the gate is open, pain signals can enter and are delivered to the brain, where they are perceived as pain.
If the gate is closed, pain signals will be prevented from ascending to the brain and won't be felt.

The administration of a non-noxious (soothing or light rubbing) stimulus can help engage the gate control mechanism and alleviate pain in those who are exposed to painful (noxious) stimuli.

A chunk of ice with a mass of 1.2 kg melts and absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy. Which best describes what has happened in this sys

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

- Its entropy increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as a 'measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.' It is also employed to denote randomness, disorder, or uncertainty of the arrangement/system. In the given system, the melting of ice denotes the 'increase in entropy' as the amount of energy unavailable to do work increases('absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy'). Thus, <u>this signifies that the entropy increases with a rise in temperature as it allows the substance to have greater kinetic energy</u>.

Un alumno menciona que al abrir la ventana de su casa sintió cómo el frío ingresaba a su cuerpo. Menciona cuál es la verdadera r

stepan [7]

Answer:

My believe the answer is

A.) or B.)

Explanation:

Here is why I think A is the answer.

If we use the process of elimination, it would look like this,

a) Porque el aire tiene una temperatura menor que la de su cuerpo; por eso se propaga más rápido.

<em>This makes sense because we all know in winter the weather is very cold and freezing.</em>

b) Porque la temperatura de su cuerpo, siente el aire frio que entra por la ventana.

<em>I feel like this answer is the question, but it could also be an answer, sorry, I'm a little uncertain.</em>

c) Porque el calor de su cuerpo se propaga al medio ambiente, al ser la temperatura del niño mayor que la del aire exterior.

<em>This answer has nothing to do with the question, plus it is very false, our body heat is not enough to overcome the very cold temperature from outside.</em>

d) Porque la temperatura del aire es igual a la temperatura del cuerpo.

<em>This is false because again our body heat is not even compared to the freezing cold temperatures from the winter.</em>

in a car moving at constant acceleration, you travel 230 mm between the instants at which the speedometer reads 40 km/hkm/h and

Ronch [10]

The acceleration of the car is 0.8049 $m/s^{2}$ .It takes 13.802s to travel the 230 m.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

In mechanics, acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time varies. Acceleration is a vector quantity (in that they have magnitude and direction). The direction of an object's acceleration is determined by the direction of the net force acting on it. Newton's Second Law states that the combined effect of two factors determines how much an item accelerates:

(i) It follows that the magnitude of the net balance of all external forces acting on the object is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resulting force, and

(ii) the mass of the thing, depending on the materials out of which it is constructed, is inversely proportional to the mass of the thing.

Calculations:

40 km/hr ----- 11.11m/s

80 km/hr ----- 22.22m/s

$v^{2} -u^{2} =2as\\22.22^{2} - 11.11^{2} = 2 x a x 230\\ 370.296=460a\\ a= 0.8049m/s^{2} \\$

Time taken

v-u=at

22.22-11.11= 0.8049 x t

t=13.802s

If a builder of mass 75kg climbs a vertical ladder of 25m how much energy has she gained ?

erica [24]

So,

GPE (graviational potential energy) = mass x g x height

GPE is depends on where zero height is defined. In this situation, we define h = 0 as the initial height.

$GPE = 75 \ kg*9.8 \ \frac{m}{s^2}*25 \ m$

$GPE = 18,375 \frac{kg*m^2}{s^2}$

$GPE = 18,375 \ joules(J) \ or \ 18.375 \ kilojoules(kJ)$

The builder has gained 18.375 kJ of PE.
