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.

Why does cold water sink?
KATRIN_1 [288]
Because Any object or substance that is less dense than a fluid will float in that fluid, so hot water rises (floats) in colder water. When fluids are cooled, they contract and therefore become more dense. Any object or substance that is more dense than a fluid will sink in that fluid, so cold water sinks in warmer water

What two traits must a viable hypothesis have
I am Lyosha [343]
<span>The hypothesis must be testable and falsifiable. The first stipulation is that the hypothesis must be able to be tested and be phrased as such. In addition, the second stipulation holds that the statement must be able to be falsified; that is, the statement can be showed to not be the case.</span>

A solid sphere of radius 40.0cm has a total positive charge of 26.0μC uniformly distributed throughout its volume. Calculate the
Rudiy27

The magnitude of the electric field for 60 cm is 6.49 × 10^5 N/C

R(radius of the solid sphere)=(60cm)( 1m /100cm)=0.6m

Q\;(\text{total charge of the solid sphere})=(26\;\mathrm{\mu C})\left(\dfrac{1\;\mathrm{C}}{10^6\;\mathrm{\mu C}} \right)={26\times 10^{-6}\;\mathrm{C}}

Since the Gaussian sphere of radius r>R encloses all the charge of the sphere similar to the situation in part (c), we can use Equation (6) to find the magnitude of the electric field:

E=\dfrac{Q}{4\pi\epsilon_0 r^2}

Substitute numerical values:

E&=\dfrac{24\times 10^{-6}}{4\pi (8.8542\times 10^{-12})(0.6)}\\ &={6.49\times 10^5\;\mathrm{N/C}\;\text{directed radially outward}}}

The spherical Gaussian surface is chosen so that it is concentric with the charge distribution.

As an example, consider a charged spherical shell S of negligible thickness, with a uniformly distributed charge Q and radius R. We can use Gauss's law to find the magnitude of the resultant electric field E at a distance r from the center of the charged shell. It is immediately apparent that for a spherical Gaussian surface of radius r < R the enclosed charge is zero: hence the net flux is zero and the magnitude of the electric field on the Gaussian surface is also 0 (by letting QA = 0 in Gauss's law, where QA is the charge enclosed by the Gaussian surface).

9. A car driver brakes gently. Her car slows down front --
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

9) This is a case of deceleration

10)-0.8 ms-2

b) acceleration is the change in velocity with time

11)

a) 100 ms-1

b) 100 seconds

12) 10ms-1

13) more information is needed to answer the question

14) - 0.4 ms^-2

15) 0.8 ms^-2

Explanation:

The deceleration is;

v-u/t

v= final velocity

u= initial velocity

t= time taken

20-60/50 =- 40/50= -0.8 ms-2

11)

Since it starts from rest, u=0 hence

v= u + at

v= 10 ×10

v= 100 ms-1

b)

v= u + at but u=0

1000 = 10 t

t= 1000/10

t= 100 seconds

12) since the sprinter must have started from rest, u= 0

v= u + at

v= 5 × 2

v= 10ms-1

14)

v- u/t

10 - 20/ 25

10/25

=- 0.4 ms^-2

15)

a=v-u/t

From rest, u=0

8 - 0/10

a= 8/10

a= 0.8 ms^-2
