Potassium ions (K+) move across a 7.0 -mm- thick cell membrane from the inside to the outside. The potential inside the cell is

−70.0 mV, and the potential outside is zero. What is the change in the electrical potential energy ΔU electric of the potassium ions as they move across the membrane?

Reil [10]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Relation between potential energy and charge is as follows.

           U = qV

or,    \Delta U = q \times \Delta V

                   = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 70 \times 10^{-3}

                   = 112 \times 10^{-22} J

or,                = 1.12 \times 10^{20} J

Therefore, we can conclude that change in the electrical potential energy \Delta U is 1.12 \times 10^{20} J.

Which best describes how the current scientific model of the atom was developed?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

A. The model was the result of hundreds of years of experiments.

Explanation:

Since it is not possible to visualize an atom in isolation, scientists have spent hundreds of years experimenting and creating atomic models, that is, images that serve to explain the constitution, properties and behavior of atoms.

The earliest who imagined the existence of the atoms were the Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus in about 450 BCE. According to them, everything would be formed by tiny indivisible particles. Hence the origin of the name "atom", which comes from the Greek a (no) and tome (parts).

But in the nineteenth century, some scientists began to conduct experimental tests increasingly accurate thanks to technological advances. Not only was it discovered that everything was actually made up of tiny particles, but it was also possible to understand more and more about the atomic structure.

Scientists used the information discovered by other scholars to develop the atomic model. In this way, the discoveries of one scientist were replaced by those of others. The concepts that were correct remained, but those that proved to be non-real were now abandoned. Thus, new atomic models were created. This series of discoveries of the atomic structure until arriving at the accepted models today was known like the evolution of the atomic model.

If f(x) = -x2+x-1 then value of f(f(2)) is
qaws [65]

Answer:

<u>-13</u>

Explanation:

<u>Function</u>

  • f(x) = -x² + x - 1

<u>Solving</u>

  • Substitute 2 in place of x
  • f(2) = -(2)² + 2 - 1
  • f(2) = -4 + 2 - 1
  • f(2) = -3
  • f(f(2)) = f(-3)
  • f(-3) = -(-3)² - 3 - 1
  • f(-3) = -9 - 3 - 1
  • f(f(2)) = <u>-13</u>

Lake point tower in chicago is the tallest apartment building in the united states. suppose you take the elevator from street le
notka56 [123]

Using the idea of work done under gravity, the height of the building is 187 m.

<h3>Work done in a gravitational field</h3>

We must recall that the work done in a gravitational field is given by; mgh

m= mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

mass = 60.0 kg

Workdone = 1.15x10^5 J

W = mgh

h = W/mg

h =  1.15x10^5 J/60.0 kg * 9.8 ms-2

h = 187 m

A wave has an amplitude of 0.0800 m and is moving .33 m/s . One oscillator in the wave takes 0.115 s to go from the lowest point
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

0.230 s

Explanation:

The period is the length of time from one peak to the next.  If it takes the oscillator 0.115 s to go from the lowest point to the highest point, then it takes another 0.115 s to return to the lowest point.  So the period is 0.115 + 0.115 = 0.230 seconds.
