What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy

Chemistry
2 answers:
Stella [2.4K]3 years ago

Potential energy is stored energy in something. For example, when a roller coaster is very high up on the track, it has a lot of potential energy before it goes down the track and continues going.

Kinetic energy is energy in motion. When the roller coaster goes down the track, that potential energy gets turned into kinetic energy.

The na+/k+ pump removes ______ na+ ions and adds _______ k+ ions.
Paladinen [302]

Sodium potassium pump is an active pump which transfer sodium and potassium ions across the membrane with the expenditure of energy in the form of ATP.

This kind of pump is generally used in nerve cells.

The pump works against the concentration gradient as the pump moves three Na+ ions outside the cell and two K+ ions inside the cell, though there is a high concentration of Na+ outside the cell and a low concentration of K+ outside the cell.

9. What is the name of the molecule?
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

3–methyl–2–butanol

Explanation:

To name the compound, we must:

1. Identify the functional group.

2. Give the functional group of the compound the lowest possible count.

3. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

4. Identify the substituent group attached.

5. Give the substituent group the lowest possible count.

6. Combine the above to get the name of the compound.

Now, let us obtain the name of the compound.

1. The functional group of the compound is Alcohol i.e —OH.

2. The functional group is located at carbon 2.

3. The longest continuous carbon chain is carbon 4 i.e butane. But the presence of the functional group i.e OH will replace the –e in butane with –ol. Therefore, the compound is butanol.

4. The substituent group attached is methyl i.e CH3.

5. The substituent group is located at carbon 3.

6. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–methyl–2–butanol.

How are the three phrases of agriculture (shifting, labor-intensive, mechanized monoculture) different in terms of description,
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Shifting, labor intensive and monoculture are different in terms of description,restrictions and problem.

Shifting is an agriculture method in which an area if land is cultivated for a while and abandoned for the soil to regain and preserve it's fertility. It is done to restore soul fertility.

It has restrictions because it is done in places where there is large areas of land, if there is not large area of land, it will be done.

It can lead to defforestation because trees are cut fine for land cultivation and after a while the land is abandoned and trees are cut down some where else too.

Labor intensive refers to agricultural industry requiring or needing large amount of labor to produce agricultural products. Labor intensive is restricted to areas where there is low or no people who can engage in agricultural services.

Labor intensive require high skilled people which might not be available.

Monoculture is a farming system where by a single crop is cultivated in an area of land.

The problem of monoculture is that it displaces species and nutrients occuring naturally in an ecosystem.

Monoculture is restricted in areas where diversity of crops are needed.
