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

A 20-gram bullet traveling at 250 m/s strikes a block of wood that weighs 2 kg. With what velocity will the block and bullet mov
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

the velocity of the bullet-wood system after the collision is 2.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the bullet, m₀ = 20 g = 0.02 kg

velocity of the bullet, v₀ = 250 m/s

mass of the wood, m₁ = 2 kg

velocity of the wood, v₁ = 0

Let the velocity of the bullet-wood system after collision = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to calculate the final velocity of the system;

Initial momentum = final momentum

m₀v₀ + m₁v₁ = v(m₀ + m₁)

0.02 x 250  + 2 x 0    =    v(2  + 0.02)

5 + 0 = v(2.02)

5 = 2.02v

v = 5/2.02

v = 2.48 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the bullet-wood system after the collision is 2.48 m/s
