 <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 certain dielectric with a dielectric constant = 24 can withstand an electric field of 4 107 V/m. Suppose we want to use this d
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field E = 4 x 10⁷ V / m

Dielectric constant k = 24

capacitance of capacitor

C = kε₀ A / d

d = plate separation

A =  plate area

C = .89 x 10⁻⁶

V / d = electric field

for minimum d , electric field will be maximum

V / d  = 4 x 10⁷

1930 / d = 4 x 10⁷

d = 1930 / 4 x 10⁷

d = 482.5 x 10⁻⁷ m

= 48.25 x 10⁻⁶ m

C = kε₀ A / d

.89 x 10⁻⁶ = 24 ε₀ A / d

A = .89 x 10⁻⁶  X d /  24 ε₀

A = .89 x 10⁻⁶  X 48.25 x 10⁻⁶  /  24  x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

= 42.9 / 212.4

= .2019 m²
