Answer:

240 Ns

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is the product of its mass and its velocity:

p=mv

where m is the mass of the object and v its velocity.

According to Newton's second Law of motion, the change in momentum of an object is related to the force applied by it by the equation:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force exerted on the object

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t is the time elapsed

In this problem:

F = 120 N is the force exerted on the object

\Delta t=2 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the change in momentum of the object is:

\Delta p=F\Delta t=(120)(2)=240 Ns

What is a key difference between cell signaling by a cell-surface receptor and cell signaling by an intracellular receptor?
Art [367]

CORRECT ANSWER:

a- Cell-surface receptors bind polar signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind nonpolar signaling molecules.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

The complete question from book is

According to Figure 9.6, what is a key difference between cell signaling by a cell-surface receptor and cell signaling by an intracellular receptor?

a- Cell-surface receptors bind polar signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind nonpolar signaling molecules.

b- Signaling molecules that bind to cell-surface receptors lead to cellular responses restricted to the cytoplasm; signaling molecules that bind to intracellular receptors lead to cellular responses restricted to the nucleus.

c- Cell-surface receptors bind to specific signaling molecules; intracellular receptors bind any signaling molecule.

d- Cell-surface receptors typically bind to signaling molecules that are smaller than those bound by intracellular receptors.

e- None of the other answer options is correct.

Explain why fishes survive in ponds even when the temperature is below 0°c
zmey [24]

Answer:

After sufficient thickness of ice is formed it prevents further loss of heat from the bottom layers of water. This is why fishes and other aquatic animals and plants can survive in ponds and other water bodies even when the atmospheric temperature reaches or is well below 0 degrees.The anomalous expansion of water helps preserve aquatic life during very cold weather. When temperature falls, the top layer of water in a pond contracts becomes denser and sinks to the bottom. ... Thus, even though the upper layer are frozen, the water near the bottom is at 4°C and the fishes can survive in it easily.

Calculate ideal work (in J) when a single stream of 1 mole of air is heated and expanded from 25 C and 1 bar to 100 C and 0.5 ba
NISA [10]

Answer:

-1786.5J

Explanation:

Temperature 1=T1=25°c

Temperature 2=T2=200°c

Pressure P1=1bar

Pressure P2=0.5bars

T=37°c+273=310k

Note number if moles=1

Recall work done =2.3026RTlogp2/P1

2.3026*8.314*310log(0.5/1)

-1786.5J
