Answer:

C. Trans-membrane protein channels that are always open to allow K+ to cross the membrane without the additional input of energy

Explanation:

As we know that K+ leakage channels indicate the Potassium leakage channel. The best characterizes about K+ leakage channels is that there is a Trans-membrane protein channel which is always open to allow K+ to cross the membrane without the additional input of energy.

Actually when a cell dies its membrane potential gets more positive and finally reaches zero .

The key point is that the cells spend energy to maintain the intra-cellular ionic concentrations constant.

The membrane permeability of K+ is much higher than the membrane permeability of Na+.

Therefore, the correct choice is option (C).

The speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation , where s is the speed in kilometers per hour and d is the averag

CaHeK987 [17]

The speed of tsunami is a.0.32 km.

Steps involved :

The equation s = 356d models the maximum speed that a tsunami can move at. It reads as follows: s = 200 km/h d =?

Let's now change s to s in the equation to determine d: s = 356√d 200 = 356√d √d = 200 ÷ 356 √d = 0.562 Let's square the equation now by squaring both sides: (√d)² = (0.562) ² d = (0.562)² = 0.316 ≈ 0.32

As a result, 0.32 km is roughly the depth (d) of water for a tsunami moving at 200 km/h.

An object that weighs 2.450 N is attached to an ideal massless spring and undergoes simple harmonic oscillations with a period o

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 24.1 N/m

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the object, W = 2.45 N

Time period of oscillation of simple harmonic motion, T = 0.64 s

To find,

Spring constant of the spring.

Solution,

In case of simple harmonic motion, the time period of oscillation is given by :

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

m is the mass of object

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}$

$m=\dfrac{2.45}{9.8}$

m = 0.25 kg

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 0.25}{(0.64)^2}$

k = 24.09 N/m

k = 24.11 N/m

So, the spring constant of the spring is 24.1 N/m.

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 $m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles = 40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles = 64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = $\frac{1}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{30}{60}hours$

30 minute = $\frac{1}{2}hours$

Now

Average velocity = $\frac{Speed}{time}$

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = $\frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}$

Average velocity = $64.3738 \times 2$

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting velocity to m/s

$128.74 \times \frac{5}{18}$
