Interesting question.

There are a number of factors that may attribute to the pricing of an item say quality of material, number of special features available, and certainly a common notion of brand value (e.g H&M vs GUCCI). Of course, it does not necessarily mean more face value = more expensive.

Typically, to estimate, I would check the brand and material component.

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.1 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.4 x 10-8 m.

ziro4ka [17]

a) The charge on the outer surface is $1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

b) The number of ions is $7.5\cdot 10^6$

Explanation:

The membrane behaves as a parallel plate capacitor, whose capacity is given by the equation

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

where

k = 4.3 is the dielectric constant

$\epsilon_0 =8.85\cdot 10^{-12} F/m$ is the vacuum permittivity

$A=5.1\cdot 10^{-9} m^2$ is the surface area

$d=1.4\cdot 10^{-8} m$ is the distance between the two plates

Substituting,

$C=\frac{(4.3)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(5.1\cdot 10^{-9})}{1.4\cdot 10^{-8}}=1.4\cdot 10^{-11} F$

The capacity of the membrane is related to the potential difference between the two surfaces by

$C=\frac{Q}{\Delta V}$

where here we have

Q = excess charge on one surface

$\Delta V = 85.5 mV = 0.0855 V$ is the potential difference between the two surfaces

Solving for Q, we find

$Q=C\Delta V=(1.4\cdot 10^{-11})(0.0855)=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

We said that the net charge on the outer surface is

$Q=1.2\cdot 10^{-12} C$

The charge of one K+ ions is equal to the electron charge

$+e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C$

Therefore, the number of ions on the outer surface can be found by dividing the total charge by the charge of a single ion:

$N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^{-12}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=7.5\cdot 10^6$

10) If the mass 2m, the left mass

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$ .

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects of masses $m_{1}, m_{2}$ kept at a distance r is given by the formula

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$

Here , $m_{1}$ = 2m

$m_{2}$ = $\frac{m}{2}$

Thus , F = $\frac{-G.2m.\frac{m}{2} }{r^{2} }$

F = $\frac{-Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} }$ .

Why does a box on the seat of a car slide around on the c one the car speeds up slows down or turns a corner?

Feliz [49]

Because the box keeps going straight at the same speed, while the seat under it speeds up, slows down, or changes direction.
