Bronchioles, alveolus, and capillaries are vital parts of which bodily system?
respiration
The trachea branches into the left and right bronchi which each lead to a lung where the bronchi subdivide into smaller tubes called bronchioles. Each bronchiole ends in a small sac called an alveolus which allows oxygen from the air to enter the bloodstream via tiny blood vessels called capillaries.
These clouds grow upward and can develop into cumulonimbus or thunderstorm clouds.
cumulus clouds
Cumulus clouds are large, puffy, mid-altitude clouds with a flat base and a rounded top. These clouds grow upward and can develop into a cumulonimbus or thunderstorm cloud.
Two gears are connected and the smaller gear drives the larger gear. The speed of rotation will __________ and the torque will __________.
decrease, increase
Connected gears of different numbers of teeth are used together to change the rotational speed and torque of the input force. If the smaller gear drives the larger gear, the speed of rotation will be reduced and the torque will increase. If the larger gear drives the smaller gear, the speed of rotation will increase and the torque will be reduced.
Potential energy is energy that has the potential to be converted into what?
kinetic energy
Potential energy is the energy of an object by virtue of its position relative to other objects. It is energy that has the potential to be converted into kinetic energy.
Capacitors store:
electricity
Capacitors store electricity and are used in circuits as temporary batteries. Capacitors are charged by DC current (AC current passes through a capacitor) and that stored charge can later be dissipated into the circuit as needed. Capacitors are often used to maintain power within a system when it is disconnected from its primary power source or to smooth out or filter voltage within a circuit.
How many 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallon cans worth of fuel would you need to pour into an empty 20 gallon tank to fill it exactly halfway?
To fill a 20 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 10 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallons so:
cans = \( \frac{10 \text{ gallons}}{2\frac{1}{2} \text{ gallons}} \) = 4
A biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment is known as:
ecosystem
An ecosystem is a biological community of interacting organisms and their physical environment. This includes both the biotic (living) and abiotic (non-living).
