Due to influx of potassium ions, electricity is generated in axon of a neuron.  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Axon membrane is the semi permeable membrane that is full of potassium and sodium channels. There’s also Sodium Potassium ATPase pumps. When there’s an impulse coming through the synapse, the potassium channels open. This leads to influx of sodium from outside the membrane to inside it. Then the membrane becomes positive.

Then the electricity is generated and its conducted from one part to another. After the impulse is conducted, the sodium potassium pumps come in action which transports 3 sodium inside and 2 potassium outside in consumption to an ATP.

A<br> B <br> C <br> D<br><br> Plz help me.
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The correct option is;

{}               Man doing most work   {}    Box gaining the most energy

D   {}                 Y                                          Q

Explanation:

The given parameters of the question are;

The distance the box P is pushed by the Man X = 0

The force the Man X applies to the box P = x N

The distance the box Q is lifted by the Man Y = h > 0 meters

The minimum force the Man Y applies to the box Q = W, the weight of the box

Work done = Force × Distance

Energy gained = Potential energy + Kinetic Energy = (Mass × Gravity × Height = Weight × Height  = W × h) + 1/2 × Mass × Velocity²

The final velocity of either box = 0 m/s (The boxes are at rest on the ground or the shelf)

Therefore, Kinetic energy = 0 J

The work done by Man X = 0 × x = 0 J

The energy gained by the box P = W × 0 = 0 J

The work done by Man Y = W × h = W·h J

The energy gained by the box P = W × h = W·h J

We have, the work done by the man Y = W·h J is more than the work done by the man X = 0 J

The energy gained by the box P = W·h J is more than the energy gained by the box Q = 0 J

Therefore, the correct option is D, Man doing the most work is Y, box gaining the most energy is Q.

In electronics, the formula V = IR is called Ohm's Law. It gives the relationship in a circuit between the voltage V (in volts),
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

3+2i ohm.

Explanation:

Here we have a complex number operation. According to Ohm's law V=I*R, so:

R=\frac{V}{I}\\\\R=\frac{21+i}{5-3i}

we need to remove the complex number on the denominator, so we have to multiply by its complement on both side

R=\frac{21+i}{5-3i}*\frac{5+3i}{5+3i}

that gives us:

R=\frac{102+68i}{34}=3+2i
