 <span>haha I used to think biology was so hard, i find it quite easy now. 
Okay, so basically Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Diffusion is generally the movement of a gradient from higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Osmosis applies to water only, whereas diffusion, you have many types such as Passive transport [ movement of molecules from high- low, NO CELLULAR ENERGY needed! ] then you have faciliated diffusion ( basically uses a channel protein to allow big substances to go through the membrane : NO ENERGY needed] 
OSMOSIS, the important thing to remember is that water ALWAYS flow towards the region with the higher concentration of the solute (ex: Salt is solute, water is solvent) solute is the thing that is being dissolved. Solvent is the one doing the dissolving. Hope this helped!</span>

A 3" diameter germanium wafer that is 0.020" thick at 300K has 1.015 x 10^17 As atoms added to it. What is the resistivity of th
Ber [7]

Answer:

0.546 ohm / μm

Explanation:

Given that :

N = 1.015 * 10^17

Electron mobility, u = 3900

Hole mobility, h = 1900

Ng = 4.42 x10^22

q = 1.6*10^-19

Resistivity = 1/qNu

Resistivsity (R) = 1/(1.6*10^-19 * 1.015 * 10^17 * 3900)

= 0.01578880889 ohm /cm

Resistivity of germanium :

R = 1 / 2q * sqrt(Ng) * sqrt(u*h)

R = 1 / 2 * 1.6*10^-19 * sqrt(4.42 x10^22) * sqrt(3900*1900)

R = 1 /0.0001831

R = 5461.4964 ohm /cm

5461.4964 / 10000

0.546 ohm / μm

A proton having an initial velvocity of 20.0i Mm/s enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.300 T with a direction perpend
nikitadnepr [17]

The radius of curvature of the proton's path while in the field is 66.67  × 10^{-2}.

b) Let R = radius curvature of protons path. Then,

relation b/w B, R, and v is: -

B = mv/eR\\R=mv/eB

R=\frac{1.6*10^{-27} * 20*10^{6}}{1.6*10^{-19}*0.3 }

R =66.67× 10^{-2}

Hence, the radius of curvature of the proton's path while in the field is 66.67 × 10^{-2}.

<h3>What do you mean by Magnetic field?</h3>

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, which is a vector field. A force perpendicular to the charge's own velocity and the magnetic field acts on it when the charge is travelling through a magnetic field.  The magnetic field of a permanent magnet pulls on ferromagnetic substances like iron and attracts or repels other magnets. A magnetic field that varies with location will also exert a force on a variety of non-magnetic materials by changing the velocity of those particles' outer electrons. Electric currents, like those utilized in electromagnets, and electric fields that change in time produce magnetic fields that surround magnetized things.

A stone is thrown from a cliff and lands in the sea. Air resistance is negligible. Which statement is correct whilst the stone i
erik [133]
Since the stone is travelling, the displacement cannot be constant. This leaves the last 2 choices as possibilities. Now consider the acceleration that can act on the stone. Acceleration due to gravity is the only one. That means the horizontal component of the stone has to be constant since there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

What are possible units for impulse? Check all that apply.
Neporo4naja [7]

Units of impulse: N • s, kg • meters per second

Explanation:

Impulse is defined in two ways:

1)

Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted in a collision and the duration of the collision:

I=F\Delta t

where

F is the force

\Delta t is the time interval

Since the force is measured in Newtons (N) and the time is measured in seconds (s), the units for the impulse are

[I] = [N][s]

So,

N • s

2)

Impulse is also defined as the change in momentum experienced by an object:

I=\Delta p

where the change in momentum is given by

\Delta p = m\Delta v

where m is the mass and \Delta v is the change in velocity.

The mass is measured in kilograms (kg) while the change in velocity is measured in metres per second (m/s), therefore the units for impulse are

[I]=[kg][m/s]

so,

kg • meters per second
