Answer: The metal gets distorted when it is subjected to pressure, such as a blow from a hammer.
Explanation:
A blow from the hammer on the metal is actually applying a high pressure that causes a strain into the metal.
Due to this strain, the atoms of metals get compressed resulting in the formation of a large force which will distort the metal. Therefore, the atoms of metal will move sides apart from each other.
K+ ions move faster than the Na+ ions through the neuron membranes.
The concentration of Sodium ions outside the cell is very high. The concentration of Potassium ions inside the cells is very high. Leakage channels thus allow sodium ions to move inside the cells and pumps out the Potassium from the cells.
