Answer: Radiation

Explanation:

The heat transfer process that is important in the transfer of energy from the Sun to Earth is Radiation.

Radiation is one of the mode of heat transfer which transfer energy/heat from one medium to another without any intervening medium. For example, heat from the sun reaches the earth through radiation. The sun hits the earth directly without any medium between the sun itself and the earth.

A 1 900-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 4.00 m before coming into contact
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

471392.4 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Just before contact with the beam,

mgh = Fd.................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the beam, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height. F =  average Force on the beam, d = distance.

make f the subject of the equation

F = mgh/d................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1900 kg, h = 4 m, d = 15.8 = 0.158 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

F = 1900(4)(9.8)/0.158

F = 471392.4 N

Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion are related in that both
kaheart [24]

Answer:

allow the downward movement of the concentration gradient by passive transport

Explanation:

Passive transport is a process of substance transport, which is carried out spontaneously, without energy expenditure and in favor of the concentration gradient, that is, from a medium where the molecules are more concentrated towards a medium where their concentration is lower.

Three types of passive transport are distinguished: osmosis, simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion

<u>Simple diffusion</u>

It is the passage, through the plasma membrane, of small molecules without charge soluble in the lipid bilayer, such as some gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide). For a molecule to diffuse through the membrane it is necessary that there is a difference in concentration between the external and the internal environment.

<u>Diffusion facilitated </u>

There are molecules such as amino acids, glucose and small ions that, due to their chemical and size characteristics, cannot diffuse through the lipid bilayer and require transport proteins for diffusion.

The transport proteins are immersed in the plasma membrane and can be of two types: protein channels, formed by proteins that generate a channel in the membrane, and permeases, which are proteins that, when joined to the molecule to be transported, change their shape by carrying them into the cell.
