The light reactions could be viewed as analogous to a hydroelectric dam. In that case, the wall of the dam that holds back the water would be analogous to the thylakoid membrane.

Thylakoid membrane is present in cyanobacteria and chloroplasts of plants. It plays a crucial role in photosynthesis and photosystem II reactions.

In general, these are the regions where light-dependent reactions take place. The thylakoid membrane is a lipid-bound membrane that maintains potential difference and also controls the flow of liquids across the membrane during light reactions.

In the provided case, we can see that the wall of the dam holds back the water, similarly, in light-dependent reactions, thylakoid membranes control the liquid flow and also regulate the potential gradient across the membrane and also allow the selective proteins to pass through.

A blacksmith heats a 1,540 g iron horseshoe to a temperature of 1445°c before dropping it into 4,280 g of water at 23.1°c. if th
Marta_Voda [28]
Given:
m₁ = 1540 g, mass of iron horseshoe
T₁ = 1445 °C, initial temperature of horseshoe
c₁ = 0.4494 J/(g-°C), specific heat

m₂ = 4280 g, mass of water
T₂ = 23.1 C, initial temperature of water
c₂ = 4.18 J/(g-°C), specific heat of water
L = 947,000 J heat absorbed by the water.

Let the final temperature be T °C.
For energy balance,
m₁c₁(T₁ - T) = m₂c₂(T - T₂) + L
(1540 g)*(0.4494 J/(g-C))*(1445-T C) = (4280 g)*(4.18 J/(g-C))*(T-23.1 C) + 947000 J
692.076(1445 - T) = 17890(T - 23.1) + 947000
10⁶ - 692.076T = 17890T - 413259 + 947000
466259 = 18582.076T
T = 25.09 °C

Answer: 25.1 °C

Which type of lens will produce a virtual image
Naily [24]

When a object is close to the converging lens it behaves like a magnifying glass. Therefore convex mirror produces a virtual image. A real image occurs when a ray converges, whereas virtual image occurs when rays only Appear to converge.

Two identical vertical springs S1 and S2 have masses m1 = 400 g and m2 = 800 g attached to them. If m1 causes spring S1 to stret
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

potential energy = mgh

= 400÷1000 × 10× 4÷100

= 0.4 × 10 × 0.04

=4/10 ×10×4/100

= 4/10 × 4/10

=16/100

= 0.16 joules

m1 (400) stretches 4cm

m1 (100g) stretches 1cm

so, m2(800g) stretches 8 cm

potential energy of m2 = mgh

= 800/1000 ×10×8/100

= 0.8 × 0.8

=8/10 ×8/10

= 64/100

=0.64 joules

Ratio of s1 to s2

16/100 ÷ 64/100

= 1:4 ( answer)

A fish swims to a depth of 50.00 meters in the ocean. Assuming the density of sea water is 1.0251.025 g·cm^{-3}g⋅cm −3 , calcula
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The fish is experiencing a water pressure of 502.8 kPa.

Explanation:

The water pressure the fish is experiencing can be found as follows:

P = \rho gh  (1)

Where:

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height (depth) = 50.0 m

ρ: is the seawater's density = 1.025 g/cm³  

By replacing the above values into equation (1) we have:

P = \rho gh = 1.025 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}*\frac{1 kg}{1000 g}*\frac{(100cm)^{3}}{1 m^{3}}*9.81 m/s^{2}*50.0 m = 502.8 kPa        

Therefore, the fish is experiencing a water pressure of 502.8 kPa.

I hope it helps you!
