The statement “When an object is in orbit, it is falling at the same rate at which the Earth is curving” is true. The speed of a satellite orbiting the earth depends only on the mass of the earth and the mass of the satellite.

When a nerve cell fires, charge is transferred across the cell membrane to change the cell's potential from negative to positive
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The average current will be "17.69 nA".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Charge,

q = 9.2 pC

Time,

t = 0.52ms

The equivalent circuit of the cell surface is provided by:

⇒  i_{avg}=\frac{charge}{t}

Or,

⇒  i_{avg}=\frac{q}{t}

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒         =\frac{9.2\times 10^{-12}}{0.52\times 10^{-3}}

⇒         =17.69^{-9}

⇒         =17.69 \ nA

Difference between boyles law, charles law, and gay-lussacs law​
lesya [120]

Answer:

All these laws give the relationship between two quantities of the gas among V (volume), p (pressure) and T (temperature), keeping the third one constant - however the two quantities change for each law

Explanation:

Calling:

p = gas pressure

V = gas volume

T = gas temperature (in Kelvin)

We have:

- Boyle's law: the pressure and the volume of a gas kept at constant temperature are inversely proportional. Mathematically,

pV=const.

- Charles's law: the temperature and the volume of a gas kept at constant pressure are directly proportional. Mathematically,

\frac{V}{T}=const.

- Gay Lussac's law: the temperature and the pressure of a gas kept at constant volume are directly proportional. Mathematically,

\frac{p}{T}=const.
