How do hormones affect only certain cells in the body but not others?

 I<span>f you have studied enzymes its a similar concept. Cells have proteins on the surface of their cell which hormones bind to (called receptors) The receptor must be a complimentary shape to the hormone for it to bind. Only target cells have the receptor with the complimentary shape so only these cells will be affected.</span>

When I wave a charged golf tube at the front of the classroom with a frequency of two oscillations per second, I produce an elec
borishaifa [10]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts of wavelength as a function of speed.

From the definition we know that the wavelength is described under the equation,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Where,

c = Speed of light (vacuum)

f = frequency

Our values are,

f = 2Hz

c = 3*10^8km/s

Replacing we have,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = \frac{3*10^8km/s}{2Hz}

\lambda = 1.5*10^8m

<em>Therefore the wavelength of this wave is 1.5*10^{8}m</em>

Calculate the heat energy released when 17.7 g of liquid mercury at 25.00 °c is converted to solid mercury at its melting point.
maria [59]

Answer;

Q = 359.2-J  

Explanation;

Given that;

Constants for mercury at 1 atm  

Heat capacity of Hg(l) is 28.0 J/(mol*K)  

melting point is 234.32 K  

Enthalpy of fusion is 2.29 kJ/mol

17.7-g Hg / 200.6g/mol = 0.0882 mol Hg;

°C + 273 = 298 K;

2.29-kJ/mol = 2290-J/mol  

Q = (m x ΔT x Cp) + (m x Hf)  

Q = 0.0882-mol x (298 - 234.32) x 28.0-J/mol*K) + (0.0882-mol x 2290-J/mol)  

Q = 157.26-J + 201.978-J  

Q = 359.2-J  

Q=359-J (3 sig fig allowed due to 17.7-g given in problem)

a 40 kg block is being pulled at constant velocity across a horizontal surface by a 150 N force at an angle 60 above the horizon
k0ka [10]

Answer:

0.19

Explanation:

mass of block, m = 40 kg

F = 150 N

Angle make with the horizontal, θ = 60 degree

Let μ be the coefficient of kinetic friction

The component of force along horizontal direction  is F Cos θ

                                                                    = 150 cos 60 = 75 N

As it is moving with constant velocity it mean the acceleration of the block is zero.

Applied force in horizontal direction = friction force

75 = μ x Normal reaction

75 = μ x m x g

75 = μ x 40 x 9.8

μ = 0.19

Thus, the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.19.

A 1000kg car is moving with a speed of 20m/s. Determine the net work required to move the
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

250,000 Joules

Explanation:

The work required is the amount of energy added, so the answer is the difference in kinetic energy before and after the acceleration of the car.  (The problem doesn't say it's flat where the car is, but well assume it since there is no information about an elevation change that would require us to concern ourselves with potential energy!)

W = E_final - E_initial

= 1/2 m v_final^2 - 1/2 m v_initial^2

= 1/2 m (v_final^2 - v_initial^2)

= 1/2 (1000 kg) ( (30 m/s)^2 - (20 m/s^2) )

= 1/2 (1000 kg) (500 m^2/s^2)

= 250,000 kg m^2/s^2

= 250,000 Joules
