Answer: <em>In order to calculate the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axel, you can divide the radius of the wheel by the radius of the axle. If a wheel's radius is 60cm and its axle is 30cm, what is the mechanical advantage of the wheel and axle? The output force of the wheel and axle is 2 times greater than the input force.</em>

The following are steps involved in transmission at the cholinergic synapse:

Westkost [7]

Answer:

3. Step 1; An action potential depolarizes the axon terminal at the presynaptic membrane

2. Step 2; Calcium ions enter the axon terminal

4. Step 3; Acetylcholine is released from storage vesicles by exocytosis

5. Step 4; Acetylcholine binds to receptors on the postsynaptic membrane

1. Step 5; Chemically gated ion channels on the postsynaptic membrane are opened

Explanation:

3. The cholinergic synapse starts at the point of arrival of an electrochemical impulse or action potentials at the synaptic knob of the axon terminal of a presynaptic neuron membrane

2. The arrival of the action potential at the axon terminal causes the calcium ion Ca²⁺ channels to open and Ca²⁺ enters into the synaptic knob, resulting in the fusion of the presynaptic membrane and synaptic vesicles

4. The fusion enables the release into the synaptic cleft of many acetylcholine (ACh) transmitter molecules by exocytosis

5. Some of the ACh are transported across the synaptic cleft and bind to postsynaptic neuron membrane embedded ACh receptors

1. The binding of the ACh neurotransmitter molecules to receptors on the membrane of the dendrites of a neuron it leads to the opening of ion channels

A ball of mass m is thrown straight upward from ground level at speed v0. At the same instant, at a distance D above the ground,

n200080 [17]

Answer:

a. $t = \frac{v_{0} +/- \sqrt{v_{0} ^{2} - gD} }{g}$ b. D = v₀²/2g

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

A ball is thrown straight up from the ground with speed v₀ . At the same instant, a second ball is dropped from rest from a height D , directly above the point where the first ball was thrown upward. There is no air resistance

Find the time at which the two balls collide.

Express your answer in terms of the variables D ,v₀ , and appropriate constants..

t = ?!

Part B

Find the value of D in terms of v₀ and g so that at the instant when the balls collide, the first ball is at the highest point of its motion.

Express your answer in terms of the variables v₀ and g .

D =?!

Solution

The distance moved by the ball dropped from distance,D with velocity v₀, H₁ = D - (v₀t - gt²/2) = D + v₀t + gt²/2.

The distance moved by the ball thrown straight upward with velocity v₀ is H₂ = v₀t - gt²/2.

The two balls collide when their vertical distances are equal. That is H₁ = H₂

So, D - v₀t + gt²/2 = v₀t - gt²/2

Collecting like terms

D + gt²/2 + gt²/2 = v₀t + v₀t

D +gt² = 2v₀t

gt² - 2v₀t + D = 0.

Using the quadratic formula,

$t = \frac{-(-2v_{0} ) +/- \sqrt{(-2v_{0} )^{2} - 4 X g XD} }{2g} = \frac{2v_{0} +/- \sqrt{4v_{0} ^{2} - 4gD} }{2g} = \frac{v_{0} +/- \sqrt{v_{0} ^{2} - gD} }{g}$

B. At its highest point, the velocity of the first ball, v = 0. Using v² = u² - 2gs where s = highest point of first ball when they collide and u = v₀.

0 = v₀² - 2gs

s = v₀²/2g.

Also, the time it takes the first ball to reach its highest point is gotten from v = u - gt. At highest point, v = 0 and u = v₀. So,

0 = v₀ - gt₀

t₀ = v₀/g

Also H = s₁ + s where s₁ = distance moved by second ball in time t₀ for collision = v₀t₀ - gt₀²/2.

So, H = v₀t₀ - gt₀²/2 + v₀²/2g = v₀(v₀/g) - g(v₀/g)²/2 + v₀²/2g = v₀²/2g - v₀²/2g + v₀²/2g = v₀²/2g

How does the law of conservation apply to Earth's Energy Budget?

Molodets [167]

Answer:

The balance between incoming energy from the sun and outgoing energy from Earth ultimately drives our climate. This energy balance is governed by the first law of thermodynamics, also known as the law of conservation of energy.
