A single ion channel is selectively permeable to K+ and has a resistance of 1.0 GΩ. During an experiment the channel is open for

approximately 1.0 ms while the voltage across the channel is maintained at +80.0 mV with a patch clamp. How many K+ ions travel through the channel?

Answer:

5.0 × 10⁵

Explanation:

Quantity of charge Q = It

V= IR

I = V / R

Q = Vt/R

Q = ne

ne = Vt/R

n, number of K⁺ ions = Vt / Re

V = 80 × 10 ⁻³

t = 1 × 10⁻³ s

R = 1  × 10⁹ Ω

e = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁶C

n, number of K⁺ ions = (80 × 10 ⁻³ V ×  1 × 10⁻³ s ) / (1  × 10⁹ Ω ×  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹C) = 5.0 × 10⁵

Answer:

Plan A

Explanation:

Acceleration in a circle is toward the center of the circle, while velocity is always a straight line that's tangent to the circle. When the boy let's go of the rope the Acceleration toward the center of the circle disappears. The v ball then follows the straight path, tangent to the circle.

How is grounding a positive object different from grounding a negative object?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Grounding a Positively Charged Object

Electrons were transferred from the electroscope to the ground. As in the case of grounding a negatively charged electroscope, the grounding of a positively charged electroscope involves charge sharing. The excess positive charge is shared between the electroscope and the ground.

A car is moving from rest and the velocity increases to 30 m/s in 4 seconds. Calculate its acceleration.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

7.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 30 m/s

t = 4 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

(30 m/s) = a (4 s) + (0 m/s)

a = 7.5 m/s²

Where does the heat come from that drives this convection current in the mantle
marta [7]

Answer:

Earth's interior (Core)

Explanation:

The earth is comprised of 3 distinct layers namely the Core, the Mantle and the Crust, which are divided based on their composition as well as density.

The core of the earth is extremely very hot where the inner core remains solid and outer core acts a liquid. It is mainly comprised of iron, nickel and other siderophile elements.

A large amount of heat (energy) is radiated from this core region towards the surface of the earth. Due to this, the mantle rocks forms magma that creates the convection currents, where the hot and less dense magma rises upward and the cool and denser magma sinks to the bottom. This occurs continuously, as a result of which the lithospheric plates are forced to move over the less dense layer of asthenosphere.

Thus, the heat energy that drives the convection current in the mantle is provided from the interior (core) of the earth.
