Answer: 5. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.


6. Active transport directly uses a source of chemical energy (e.g., ATP) to move molecules across a membrane against their gradient.

An Isentropic process is an idealised process which is adiabatic and reversible (in thermodynamics). There is no transfer of hea
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

An isentropic process is one that does not change the entropy of the system. A reversible of the universe, and it is reversible because of that. Real processes increase the entropy of the universe, so trying to reverse them would decrease the entropy of the universe, which is impossible, so they are irreversible.

The Carnot cycle has 4 phases:

-Isotermal expansion of gas. In this process it takes heat from a hot source. It is a reversible process, but not isentropic.

-Adiabatic expansion. This one is isentropic, the entropy of the gas remains constant and it doesn't interact with the surroundings. The gas expands not by its own, but the machine makes it expand (it pulls on the gas). The gas cools down.

-Isotermal compression. Reversible but not adiabatic. The gas exchanges heat with the cold source, reducing its volume.

-Adiabatic compression. Adiabatic and isentropic. The machine compresses the gas, causing it to heat up.

The resistance of an electric heater is 50 Ω when connected to 120 V. How much energy does it use during 15 min of operation?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I = V/R = 120 V/ 50 Ω = 2.4 A

P = VI = 120(2.4) = 288 W = 288 J/s

288 J/s (15 min(60s / min)) = 259,200 J

or the electric company would charge for

288 W / (1000 W/kW)•(15/60) hr = 0.072 kW•hr

At $0.20 / kW•hr, that would be under 1½ cents

If you neglect air resistance, the horizontal component of a projectile A. Is always changing B. Remains constant throughout the
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

B. Remains constant throughout the flight

Explanation:

If we completely neglect air resistance then the projectile will not have any horizontal resistances to deal with, therefore the horizontal component will remain constant throughout the flight. This would continue to be the case until it meets some form of resistance. Which assuming that everything else is normal would be the case since the force of gravity will push the projectile down (vertical component) until it hits the ground which in that instance would act as an opposing force to the horizontal component as well.
