The correct answer is A.

The cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins. Sometimes molecules are just too big to easily flow across the plasma membrane or dissolve in the water so that they can be filtered through the cell membrane. In these cases , the cells must put out a little energy to help get molecules in and out of the cell.

The proteins embedded in the plasma membrane form channels through which other molecules can pass. Some proteins act as carriers, that is they are 'paid" in energy to let a molecule attach to itself and then transport that molecule inside the cell. This is called active transport.

A rock is thrown upward from the level ground in such a way that the maximum height of its flight is equal to its horizontal ran

marshall27 [118]

Answer

a) For the rock

$\dfrac{v_t^2sin 2\theta}{g} = \dfrac{v_t^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

$2sin\thetacos\theta = \dfrac{sin^2\theta}{2}$

$2cos\theta = \dfrac{sin\theta}{2}$

$tan\theta = 4$

$\theta = tan^{-1} 4$

$\theta = 76^0$

b) $\theta = 45^0$ for maximum range

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{(v_tcos 45^0)(2v_tsin 45^0)g}{(v_tcos 76^0)(2v_tsin 76^0)g}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=\dfrac{0.707\times 0.707)}{0.97\times 0.242}$

$\dfrac{d_{max}}{d}=2.129$

$d_{max}=2.129 d$

c) The value of θ is the same on every planet as g divides out.

Answer:

The inner planets are closer to the Sun and are smaller and rockier. The outer planets are further away, larger and made up mostly of gas. The inner planets (in order of distance from the sun, closest to furthest) are Mercury, Venus , Earth and Mars.

What volume (in liters) of gasoline has a total heat of combustion equal to the energy obtained in part (a)? (see section 17.6;

antiseptic1488 [7]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Volume = mass/density

Mass = 0.0565 Kg,

Density = 900 kg/m³

= 0.0565 kg/ 900 kg /m³

= 6.3 × 10^-5 M³

but; 1000 L = 1 m³

Hence, <u>volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L</u>

What is the energy stored between 2 Carbon nuclei that are 1.00 nm apart from each other? HINT: Carbon nuclei have 6 protons and

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

$A. 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that:

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

k = Boltzmann constant = $9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

r = distance between the two carbon nuclei = 1.00 nm = $1.00\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Since a carbon nucleus contains 6 protons.

So, charge on a carbon nucleus is $q = 6p=6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

We know that the electric potential energy between two charges q and Q separated by a distance r is given by:

$U = \dfrac{kQq}{r}$

So, the potential energy between the two nuclei of carbon is as below:

$U= \dfrac{kqq}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{kq^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{9\times10^9\times (9.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.0\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow U =8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Hence, the energy stored between two nuclei of carbon is $8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J$ .
