Answer:

To find the total resistance of the circuit:

They are 2 ways to get that ( you can use both methods for 1 exercise)

1- If resistances are series, just add together .

Rt = R1 + R2

2 If are parallel, do the same thing but the inverse of each resistance .

Rt =1/R1 + 1/R2

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Explanation:

We are given that

Surface area of membrane= $5.3\times 10^{-9} m^2$

Thickness of membrane= $1.1\times 10^{-8} m$

Assume that membrane behave like a parallel plate capacitor.

Dielectric constant=5.9

Potential difference between surfaces=85.9 mV

We have to find the charge resides on the outer surface of membrane.

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor is given by

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

Substitute the values then we get

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor= $\frac{5.9\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}{1.1\times 10^{-8}}$

$C=0.25\times 10^{-12}F$

V= $85.9 mV=85.9\times 10^{-3}$

$Q=CV$

$Q=0.25\times 10^{-12}\times 85.9\times 10^{3}=2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

Hence, the charge resides on the outer surface= $2.1\times 10^{-12} c$

A student throws a rock horizontally from the edge of a cliff that is 20 m high. The rock has an initial speed on 10 m/s. If air

fiasKO [112]

The distance of the rock from the base of the cliff is C) 20 m

Explanation:

The motion of the rock in this problem is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

We start by analyzing the vertical motion to find the time of flight of the rock (the time it takes to reach the ground). We can do it by using the suvat equation:

$s=u_y t+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where, taking downward as positive direction,

s = 20 m is the vertical displacement of the rock

$u_y=0$ is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time of flight

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for t,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(20)}{9.8}}=2.02 s$

Now we can analzye the horizontal motion: the rock moves horizontally with a constant velocity of

$v_x = 10 m/s$

Therefore, the horizontal distance covered after a time t is

$d=v_x t$

and substituting t = 2.02 s, we find the final distance of the rock from the base of the cliff:

$d=(10)(2.02)=20 m$
