The membrane of a living cell can be approximated by a parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 4.50×10−9 m2 , a plate separ
Marizza181 [45]

The energy stored in the membrane is 6.44\cdot 10^{-14} J

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

k is the dielectric constant of the material

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

For the membrane in this problem, we have

k = 4.6

A=4.50\cdot 10^{-9} m^2

d=8.1\cdot 10^{-9} m

Substituting, we find its capacitance:

C=\frac{(4.6)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(4.50\cdot 10^{-9})}{8.1\cdot 10^{-9}}=2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F

Now we can find the energy stored: for a capacitor, it is given by

U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2

where

C=2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F is the capacitance

V=7.55\cdot 10^{-2} V is the potential difference

Substituting,

U=\frac{1}{2}(2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F)(7.55\cdot 10^{-2})^2=6.44\cdot 10^{-14} J

When a wave is acted upon by an external damping force what happens to the energy of the wave
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A-the energy of the wave decreases gradually

Explanation:

when a wave is acted upon by an external damping force the energy of the wave decreases gradually.

The energy degrades into the form of heat which is considered to be of less value and use. The reason is because it disperses and spreads more widely.

So therefore it end up as heat with a little sound but that is close to none because that too disperses into heat i.e. decreased form of energy.

If a moving car speeds up until it is going twice as fast, how much kinetic energy doe s it have compared with its initial kinet
dezoksy [38]
The kinetic energy of an object of mass m and velocity v is given by
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Let's call v_i the initial speed of the car, so that its initial kinetic energy is
K_i =  \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2
where m is the mass of the car. 

The problem says that the car speeds up until its velocity is twice the original one, so 
v_f = 2 v_i
and by using the new velocity we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the car
K_f =  \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 =  \frac{1}{2}m (2 v_i)^2 = 4 ( \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2)=4 K_i
so, if the velocity of the car is doubled, the new kinetic energy is 4 times the initial kinetic energy.
