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.

What determines how much induced current will flow through a conductor?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Rate of change of magnetic flux

Explanation:

The induced current is equal to the ratio of induced emf to the resistance of the conductor.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the induced emf is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.

How is the temperature of a gas related to the kinetic energy of its particles
love history [14]

The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy. Lighter gas molecules move faster than heavier molecules.

A 500g object falls off a cliff and losers 100 J from its gravitational potential energy store. if the gravitational field stren
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer : Height, h = 20.4 m

Explanation :

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Gravitational potential energy, PE = 100 J

The Gravitational potential energy is the energy which is possessed due to the height and gravity of an object. It is given as :

PE = m g h

where,

h is the height of the cliff.

100\ J=0.5\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times h

h = 20.40 m

So, the height of the cliff is 20.4 m.
