Answer:

Both atypical and traditional antipsychotics blocks levels of serotonin.

Explanation:

These drugs are capable of reducing or turning off positive psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and language and behavior disorder.

In addition to also acting as mood stabilizers, they have an impact on mania, depression, and produce low anxiety.

These anti-psychotics work on the 5-HT2A receptor, it belongs to the family of serotonin receptors and it is a G protein-coupled receptor. 5-HT is short for 5-hydroxy-tryptamine, the chemical name for serotonin.

This receptor became notorious for its importance as a target for drugs like LSD. Later it became important again due to the action of many antipsychotic drugs, especially atypical ones.

17. (a) Will the electric field strength between two parallel conducting plates exceed the breakdown strength for air ( 3.0×106

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance between plates d = 2 x 10⁻³m

Potential diff applied = 5 x 10³ V

Electric field = Potential diff applied / d

= 5 x 10³ / 2 x 10⁻³

= 2.5 x 10⁶ V/m

This is less than breakdown strength for air 3.0×10⁶ V/m

b ) Let the plates be at a separation of d .so

5 x 10³ / d = 3.0×10⁶ ( break down voltage )

d = 5 x 10³ / 3.0×10⁶

= 1.67 x 10⁻³ m

= 1.67 mm.

1) Average speed

2) Displacement

Explanation:

Speed is a scalar quantity which gives a measure of how fast a body is moving. It is equal to the ratio between the distance travelled by an object and the time taken to cover that distance:

$speed = \frac{d}{\Delta t}$

where

d is the distance covered

$\Delta t$ is the time taken

It is important to note that being a scalar, speed does not have any direction. Moreover, distance is also a scalar quantity, which corresponds to the total length of the path covered by the object, regardless on the direction taken.

So, the equation "travelled distance/elapsed time" corresponds to the average speed. (where the term average refers to the fact we are not measuring the speed at a specific instant in time, but on a certain time interval $\Delta t$ .

Velocity is a vector quantity, so it has both a magnitude and a direction.

The magnitude of the velocity is given by:

$velocity=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta x$ is the change in position (or displacement) of the object

$\Delta t$ is the time taken

And the direction of the velocity corresponds to the direction of the displacement.

We must note that while distance does not depend on the direction, displacement does. In fact, displacement measures the difference between the initial and final position of the object.

Therefore, the equation "change in position / elapsed time" is equal to the average velocity.
