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?

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 are the advantages and disadvantages of series and parallel circuits?
DerKrebs [107]
Parallel circuit

Advandages: 1. Every unit that is connected in a parallel circuit gets equal amount of voltage.

2. It becomes easy to connect or disconnect a new element without affecting the working of other elements.

3. If any fault happened to the circuit, then also the current is able to pass through the circuit through different paths.

Disadvantages: 1. It requires the use of lot of wires.

2. We cannot increase or multiply the voltage in a parallel circuit.
3. Parallel connection fails at the time when it is required to pass exactly same amount of current through the units.

series circuit

Advantages: 1. Series circuits do not overheat easily. This makes them very useful in the case of something that might be around a potentially flammable source, like dry plants or cloth.

2. Series circuits are easy to learn and to make. Their simple design is easy to understand, and this means that it’s simple to conduct repairs .

3. we can add more power devices, they have a higher output in terms of voltage .

4. The current that flows in a series circuit has to flow through every component in the circuit. Therefore, all of the components in a series connection carry the same current.

Disadvantages: 1.If one point breaks in the series circuit,the total circuit will break.

2. As the number of components in a circuit increases ,greater will be the circuit resistance.

Use the law of universal gravitation to describe the relationship between you and your desk
tangare [24]
The law of gravitation states that things closer to the core of gravitation, have a larger force pulling down on them. In relation of you to your desk, you and the desk are both drawn downwards towards the center of gravity.

A mechanic turns a wrench using a force of 27.00 N at a distance of 16.00 cm from the rotation axis. The force is perpendicular
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:4.32Nm

Explanation:

The magnitude of the torque will be the product of the force and its perpendicular distance from the force.

Force = 27N

Perpendicular distance = 16cm = 0.16m

Torque = 27×0.16

Torque = 4.32Nm
