In the most common isotope of Hydrogen the nucleus is made out of a single proton. When this Hydrogen atom is neutral, a single

electron orbits around the nucleus. What is the ratio of the electric force and the gravitational force acting between the proton and the electron, when they are 4.53 angstrom away from each other? (Possibly useful constants: Coulomb constant: k = 8.9876×109 N*m2/C2, Universal Gravitational constant: G = 6.6726×10-11 N*m2/kg2, elementary charge: e = 1.6022×10-19 C, electron mass: me = 9.1094×10-31 kg, proton mass: mp = 1.6726×10-27 kg. You might also find the specific charges i.e. charge per mass ratios of the electron and the proton useful: electron: e/me = 1.7588×1011 C/kg; proton: e/mp = 9.5788×107 C/kg.)

Answer:

The ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is 2.27\times 10^{39}

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between electron and proton, r=4.53\ A=4.53\times 10^{-10}\ m

Electric force is given by :

F_e=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

Gravitational force is given by :

F_g=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where

m_1 is mass of electron, m_1=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

m_2 is mass of proton, m_2=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

q_1 is charge on electron, q_1=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg

q_2 is charge on proton, q_2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{Gm_1m_2}

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}}

\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}

So, the ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is 2.27\times 10^{39}. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain the process of synaptic transmission, beginning with the neurotransmitters at the axon terminal of the presynaptic cell
nydimaria [60]

The synapse is actually the link between 2 neurons. Now when an action potential contacts the synaptic knob of a neuron, the voltage-gate calcium channels are unlocked, resulting in an influx of positively charged calcium ions into the cell. This makes the vesicles containing neurotransmitters, for example acetylcholine, to travel towards the pre-synaptic membrane. When the vesicle arrives at the membrane, the contents are released into the synaptic cleft by exocytosis. Neurotransmitters disperse across the space, down to its concentration gradient, up until it reaches the post-synaptic membrane, where it connects to the correct neuroreceptors. Connecting to the neuroreceptors results in depolarisation in the post-syanaptic neuron as voltage-gated sodium channels are also opened, and the positively charged sodium ions travel into the cell. When adequate neurotransmitters bind to neuroreceptors, the post-synaptic membrane overcame the threshold level of depolarisation and an action potential is made and the impulse is transmitted.

A centrifugal pump is operating at a flow rate of 1 m3/s and a head of 20 m. If the specific weight of water is 9800 N/m3 and th
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

<em>The power required by the pump is nearly 230.588 kW</em>

Explanation:

Flow rate of the pump Q = 1 m^3/s

the head flow H = 20 m

specific weight of water γ = 9800 N/m^3

efficiency of the pump η = 85%

First note that specific gravity of water is the product of the density of water and acceleration due to gravity.

γ = ρg

where ρ is density. For water its value is 1000 kg/m^3

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

The power to lift this water at this rate will be gotten from the equation

P = ρgQH

but ρg = γ

therefore,

P = γQH

imputing values, we'll have

P = 9800 x 1 x 20 = 196000 W

But the centrifugal pump that will be used will only be able to lift this amount of water after the efficiency factor has been considered. The power of pump needed must be greater than this power.

we can say that

196000 W is 85% of the power of the pump power needed, therefore

196000 = 85% of P_{p}

where P_{p} is the power of the pump needed

85% = 0.85

196000 = 0.85P_{p}

P_{p} = 196000/0.85 = 230588.24 W

<em>Pump power = 230.588 kW</em>
