What is an example of chemical potential energy in humans?

1 answer:

6 0

During cellular respiration, our bodies take glucose molecules and breaks the bonds holding the molecules together. When these bonds are broken, the chemical energy stored in these bonds are released and used to make ATP molecules, a form of useable energy for us.

Suppose there was a star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond. How far away would it be?

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer: 3.26 light years

Explanation:

Each star has a parallax of one arcsecond at a distance of one parsec, which is equivalent to 3.26 light years.

so the parallax of 1 arcsecond will be at a distance of <em>1/1 × 3.26 light years</em>

a particle of mass m sits at rest at x = 0. At time t = 0 a force given by F = Fe^(-t/T) is applied in the +x direction; F and T

wlad13 [49]

Explanation:

Given: $F=m\ddot{x}=Fe^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

Solving for $\ddot{x}$ :

$\ddot{x}=\frac{F}{m}e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m} } t}$

where:

$T=\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}$

Integrating to get $\dot{x}$ with initial conditions $\dot{x}(0)=0$ :

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t}$

Integrating to get x with initial conditions x(0) = 0:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} t+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}t}$

When t=T:

$x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}+e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\frac{1}{e}$

$\dot{x}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}} e^{-\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}\sqrt{\frac{m}{F}}}=\sqrt{\frac{F}{m}}(1-\frac{1}{e})$

How do you find a controlled variable

adelina 88 [10]

Hello there!

Essentially, a control variable is what is kept the same throughout the experiment, and it is not of primary concern in the experimental outcome. Any change in a control variable in an experiment would invalidate the correlation of dependent variables (DV) to the independent variable (IV), thus skewing the results.

Car B has the same mass as Car A but is going twice as fast. If the same constant force brings both cars to a stop, how far will

evablogger [386]

Answer:four times

Explanation:

Given

mass of both cars A and B are same suppose m

but velocity of car B is same as of car A

Suppose velocity of car A is u

Velocity of car B is 2 u

A constant force is applied on both the cars such that they come to rest by travelling certain distance
