First, find how many copper atoms make up the ball: 
 moles of atoms = (49.3 g) / (63.5 g per mol of atoms) = 0.<span>77638</span><span>mol 
</span> # of atoms = (0.77638 mol) (6.02 × 10^23 atoms per mol) = 4.6738*10^23<span> atoms </span>

<span> There is normally one electron for every proton in copper. This means there are normally 29 electrons per atom:
</span> normal # electrons = (4.6738 × 10^23 atoms) (29 electrons per atom) = <span> <span>1.3554</span></span><span>× 10^25 electrons 
</span>
<span> Currently, the charge in the ball is 2.0 µC, which means -2.0 µC worth of electrons have been removed.
</span><span> # removed electrons = (-2.0 µC) / (1.602 × 10^-13 µC per electron) = 1.2484 × 10^13 electrons removed
 
</span><span> # removed electrons / normal # electrons = </span>
<span>(1.2484 × 10^13 electrons removed) / (1.3554 × 10^25 electrons) = 9.21 × 10^-13 </span>

<span> That's 1 / 9.21 × 10^13 </span>

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

340

Explanation:

Because you are moving at 5 m/s^2 for 8 seconds, you need to do some arithmetic to get the distance covered in the beginning. TO do this, you do 5 + 5*2 + 5*3 + 5*4 + 5*5 + 5*6 + 5*7 + 5*8, and once you have passed eight seconds, you need 4 more seconds with constant velocity, or 4(5*8). Your final equation would be 5+10+15+20+25+30+35+40+40+40+40+40. Hope this helps!

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

ventriculoperitoneal      

Explanation:

A VP or ventriculoperitoneal shunt is a medical equipment or a device which is used to relieve pressure from the brain that is caused by the accumulation of fluid in the brain. Ventriculoperitoneal shunting is a medical procedure that is primarily used to treat a condition  known as hydrocephalus. This condition occurs when the more cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) gets collected in the  ventricles of the brain than required.

Hence the answer is ---

ventriculoperitoneal

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Ion

<u>Explanation:</u>

At the synaptic terminal, voltage-gated ion channels open, thereby stimulating the synaptic vesicles to release the neurotransmitters by exocytosis.

These ion channels are the signaling molecules in neurons. They are the transmembrane proteins that form ion channels. The membrane potential changes the conformation of the channel proteins that regulates their opening and closing. These channels play an important role in neurotransmitter release in presynaptic nerve endings.

For example - Ca²⁺ gated ion channel.
