Here is how I would I explain it. Water is channeled through tunnels in the dam. The energy of water flowing through the dam’s tunnels cause turbines to turn. The turbines make generators move. Generators are machines that produce electricity. Engineers control the amount of water let through the dam. The process used to control this flow of water is called the intake system.

Hope this helps can’t do the diagram part.

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength 435 nm is traveling in vacuum in the —z direction. The electric field has an amplitude of
joja [24]

Answer:

a) 6.9*10^14 Hz

b) 9*10^-12 T

Explanation:

Given that

The wavelength of the wave, λ = 435 nm

Amplitude of the electric field, E(max) = 2.7*10^-3 V/m

a)

The frequency of the wave can be found by using the formula

c = fλ, where c = speed of light

f = c/λ

f = 3*10^8 / 435*10^-9

f = 6.90*10^14 Hz

b)

E(max) = B(max) * c, magnetic field amplitude, B(max) =

B(max) = E(max)/c

B(max) = 2.7*10^-3 / 3*10^8

B(max) = 9*10^-12 T

c)

1T = 1 (V.s/m^2)

Threshold potential refers to the membrane potential required to:
ivanzaharov [21]

B. initiate an action potential.

Action potentials are initiated when a depolarization reaches a threshold potential. This threshold potential varies, but is normally around 55 or 50 millivolts above the resting potential of the cell, which implies that the input current of sodium ions exceeds the output current of potassium ions.
