What is the difference between atomic structure and crystal structure?

1 answer:

4 0

Atomic structure applies to just that, atoms in isolation. Witness looking at atomic spectra using laboratory discharge tubes to ionise low pressure gases of atoms of the elements you want to examine for energy level structure (sodium and the yellow D line "doublet").Crystal structure applies to vast collections of atoms/molecules/ions in complicated geometrical arrays which form lattices. Simple cubic, body centred cubic, face centred cubic being a few "simple" examples.

"Water is absorbed in the intestine through which process"? a. simple diffusion b. active transport c. active diffusion d. facil

sdas [7]

Answer: Water is absorbed in the intestine through gradient transport. The correct option is E.

Explanation:

Absorption of water in the mammalian intestines occurs largely on the small intestine through a transport mechanism known as osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water molecules, through a semi permeable membrane, from the region of lower solute concentration into higher solute concentration to attain an equilibrium.

For water molecules to be absorbed from the lumen into the bloodstream, it's dependent on sodium absorption. This follows the following steps:

-sodium is absorbed by co transport with glucose and amino acids.this aids to move sodium from lumen into the enterocyte.

- Rapid exportation of absorbed sodium through sodium pimps from the enterocyte.

- As sodium is pumped out of cells an osmotic gradient is formed across apical cell membrane, this helps to osmotically drive water across the epithelium. Therefore water is absorbed in the intestine through the osmotic gradient created by sodium absorption. I hope this helps. Thanks.

What best describes the degree to which a material can transmit heat

serious [3.7K]

The material can transmit heat by energy transfer through collision of atoms. The elements that has a high ability of transmitting heat within their material are the metals. They are said to have high thermal conductivity. As the metal heats up, because the atoms are closely packed, they easily transfer heat through conduction. For example, copper is used in electrical wirings because it has a high thermal conductivity.

As you drive away from a radio transmitter, the radio signal you receive from the station is shifted to longer wavelengths.

mylen [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

${Apparent}.wavelength = (True.wavelength)(1 +\frac{recession.velocity}{wave.speed})$

As one drive away from the radio station, the recession velocity increases and causes the apparent wavelength to increase accordingly, which in turn causes the True wavelength received from the radio station to increase as well because of their direct relationship as shown in the equation above.

The blade of a windshield wiper moves through an angle of 180.0 degrees in 0.500 s. The tip of the blade moves on the arc of a c

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration will be equal to $10.66m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given time taken to cover 180° is 0.5 sec

So time taken by 360° is equal to = 2×0.5 = 1 sec

Radius of the circle r = 0.520 m

So distance $d=2\pi r=2\times3.14\times 0.520=3.2656m$

So velocity $v=\frac{distance}{time}=\frac{.2656}{1}=3.2656m/sec$

We have to find the centripetal acceleration

Centripetal acceleration will be equal to $a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{3.2656^2}{1}=10.66m/sec^2$

So centripetal acceleration will be equal to $10.66m/sec^2$

A uniformly dense solid disk with a mass of 4 kg and a radius of 4 m is free to rotate around an axis that passes through the ce

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

3.44 rad

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy change of the disk is given by ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - ω₀²) where I = rotational inertia of solid sphere = MR²/2 where m = mass of solid disk = 4 kg and R = radius of solid disk = 4 m, ω₀ = initial angular speed of disk = 0 rad/s (since it starts from rest) and ω = final angular speed of disk

Since the kinetic energy is increasing at a rate of 21 J/s, the increase in kinetic energy in 3.3 s is ΔK = 21 J/s × 3.3 s = 69.3 J

So, ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - ω₀²)

Since ω₀ = 0 rad/s

ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - 0)

ΔK = 1/2Iω²

ΔK = 1/2(MR²/2)ω²

ΔK = MR²ω²/4

ω² = (4ΔK/MR²)

ω = √(4ΔK/MR²)

ω = 2√(ΔK/MR²)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ω = 2√(ΔK/MR²)

ω = 2√(69.3 J/( 4 kg × (4 m)²))

ω = 2√(69.3 J/[ 4 kg × 16 m²])

ω = 2√(69.3 J/64 kgm²)

ω = 2√(1.083 J/kgm²)

ω = 2 × 1.041 rad/s

ω = 2.082 rad/s

The angular displacement θ is gotten from

θ = ω₀t + 1/2αt² where ω₀ = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s (since it starts from rest), t = time of rotation = 3.3 s and α = angular acceleration = (ω - ω₀)/t = (2.082 rad/s - 0 rad/s)/3.3 s = 2.082 rad/s ÷ 3.3 s = 0.631 rad/s²

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

θ = ω₀t + 1/2αt²

θ = 0 rad/s × 3.3 s + 1/2 × 0.631 rad/s² (3.3 s)²

θ = 0 rad + 1/2 × 0.631 rad/s² × 10.89 s²

θ = 1/2 × 6.87159 rad

θ = 3.436 rad

θ ≅ 3.44 rad
