A uniform electric field is directed parallel to the +y axis. If a positive test charge begins at the origin and moves upward al

ong the y axis, how does the electric potential vary, if at all?
1. The electric potential will decrease with increasing y.
2. The electric potential will increase with increasing y.
3. The electric potential will remain constant with increasing y.
4. Too little information is given to answer this question.

Answer: option 1 : the electric potential will decrease with an increase in y

Explanation: The electric potential (V) is related to distance (in this case y) by the formulae below

V = kq/y

Where k = 1/4πε0

Where V = electric potential,

k = electric constant = 9×10^9,

y = distance of potential relative to a reference point, ε0 = permittivity of free space

q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c

From the formulae, we can see that q and k are constants, only potential (V) and distance (y) are variables.

We have that

V = k/y

We see the potential(V) is inversely proportional to distance (y).

This implies that an increase in distance results to a decreasing potential and a decrease in distance results to an increase in potential.

This fact makes option 1 the correct answer

Hemoglobin (Hb) is the O2-carrying protein in our blood. Unlike myoglobin, it has four sites allowing it to bind up to four O2 m
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Yes, the energy is not simply the sum of the individual binding energies at each site, it is the product of energy at each binding site of hemoglobin.

Explanation:

Myoglobin and hemoglobin are two different cells. Myoglobin binds only one oxygen while the hemoglobin has the ability to binds four oxygen atoms at its four sides. Myoglobin present in muscle tissue only while hemoglobin is present in the whole body. Oxyhemoglobin is formed when oxygen binds with hemoglobin cell. This oxygen is take to all cells and energy is released due to the breakdown of glucose molecules with this oxygen.
