Ok let me help you with this:
<span>
!n case a) Line both up head-to-tail in a straight line... that's the only way to get a sum 2F. In case b) sqrt(2) is the length of the hypotenuse in a 45 degree triangle, so the vectors must be at 90 degrees to each other in the case of c) lined up head to tail, the only way to get 0 is if they point in opposite direction</span>

Which term describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane? View Available Hint(s) Which term describes the diff

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Membrane potential

Explanation:

Membrane potential is describes the difference in electrical charge across a membrane.

The difference in potential between exterior and interior of the biological cell is known as Membrane potential.Generally it is denoted by millivolts like mV and varies from -80 V to -40 V.

So the answer is Membrane potential

A 2.0-cm-diameter parallel-plate capacitor with a spacing of 0.50 mm is charged to 200 V. What are (a) the total energy stored i

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

(A) Total energy will be equal to $0.044\times 10^{-5}J$

(b) Energy density will be equal to $0.0175J/m^3$

Explanation:

We have given diameter of the plate d = 2 cm = 0.02 m

So area of the plate $A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.02^2=0.001256m^2$

Distance between the plates d = 0.50 mm = $0.50\times 10^{-3}m$

Permitivity of free space $\epsilon _0=8.85\times 10^{-12}F/m$

Potential difference V =200 volt

Capacitance between the plate is equal to $C=\frac{\epsilon _0A}{d}=\frac{8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.001256}{0.50\times 10^{-3}}=0.022\times 10^{-9}F$

(a) Total energy stored in the capacitor is equal to

$E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2$

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.022\times 10^{-9}\times 200^2=0.044\times 10^{-5}J$

(b) Volume will be equal to $V=Ad$ , here A is area and d is distance between plates

$V=0.001256\times 0.02=2.512\times 10^{-5}m^3$

So energy density $=\frac{Energy}{volume}=\frac{0.044\times 10^{-5}}{2.512\times 10^{-5}}=0.0175J/m^3$

A ball is dropped from rest from the top of a building of height h. At the same instant, a second ball is projected vertically u

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

a) $t = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}$

b) Ball 1 has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height is the same for both balls = 3h/4.

Explanation:

a) We can find the time when the two balls meet by equating the distances as follows:

$y = y_{0_{1}} + v_{0_{1}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{0_{1}}$ : is the initial height = h

$v_{0_{1}}$ : is the initial speed of ball 1 = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

$y = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

Now, for ball 2 we have:

$y = y_{0_{2}} + v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Where:

$y_{0_{2}}$ : is the initial height of ball 2 = 0

$y = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (2)

By equating equation (1) and (2) we have:

$h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

$t=\frac{h}{v_{0_{2}}}$

Where the initial velocity of the ball 2 is:

$v_{f_{2}}^{2} = v_{0_{2}}^{2} - 2gh$

Since $v_{f_{2}}^{2}$ = 0 at the maximum height (h):

$v_{0_{2}} = \sqrt{2gh}$

Hence, the time when they pass each other is:

$t = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2gh}} = \sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}}$

b) When they are passing the speed of each one is:

For ball 1:

$v_{f_{1}} = - gt = -g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = - 0.71\sqrt{gh}$

The minus sign is because ball 1 is going down.

For ball 2:

$v_{f_{2}} = v_{0_{2}} - gt = \sqrt{2gh} - g*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} = (\sqrt{1} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})*\sqrt{gh} = 0.41\sqrt{gh}$

Therefore, taking the magnitude of ball 1 we can see that it has a greater speed than ball 2 when they are passing.

c) The height of the ball is:

For ball 1:

$y_{1} = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = h - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h$

For ball 2:

$y_{2} = v_{0_{2}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \sqrt{2gh}*\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}} - \frac{1}{2}g(\sqrt{\frac{h}{2g}})^{2} = \frac{3}{4}h$

Then, when they are passing the height is the same for both = 3h/4.

I hope it helps you!
