1) <span>The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses</span><span>.</span>

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
 At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.

Two identical loudspeakers are placed on a wall 1.00 m apart. A listener stands 4.00 m from the wall directly in front of one of
natita [175]

Answer:

The phase difference is 0.659 rad.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between two identical loudspeakers d= 1.00  m

Distance between speakers and listener r= 4.00 m

Frequency = 300 Hz

Suppose we need to find the phase difference in radian between the waves from the speakers when they reach the observer

We need to calculate the r'

Using Pythagorean theorem

r'=\sqrt{d^2+r^2}

Where, d = distance between two identical loudspeakers

r = distance between speakers and listener

Put the value into the formula

r'=\sqrt{(1.00)^2+(4.00)^2}

r'=\sqrt{1.00+16.00}

r'=4.12\ m

We need to calculate the path difference

Using formula of path difference

|r'-r|=4.12-4.00

|r'-r|=0.12\ m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Where, v = speed of sound

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{343}{300}

\lambda=1.143\ m

We need to calculate the phase difference

Using formula of phase difference

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi\times|r'-r| }{\lambda}

\phi=\dfrac{2\pi\times0.12}{1.143}

\phi=0.659\ rad

Hence, The phase difference is 0.659 rad.

How much force is needed to cause a 15 kilogram bicycle to accelerate at a rate of 10
Anarel [89]
Net force = (mass) x (acceleration)... that’s Newton’s 2nd law of motion.
Net force = (15kg) x (10 m/s squared)
Net force = 150 Newtons.
