Explanation:

Resting potential is the static membrane potential of the dormant cells. It is opposite of the action potential or the graded membrane potential. Na+/K+ ATPase pumps helps offset the ion diffusion through leak channels on neurons and helps return the membrane potential to its resting voltage.

A 90kg man is standing still on frictionless ice. His friend tosses him a 10kg ball, which has a horizontal velocity of 20m/s. A
Ludmilka [50]
Using the conservation of momentum,
ma*va1 + mb*vb1 = ma*va2 + mb*vb2
Let:
ma = mass of the ball
va = velocity of the ball
mb = mass of the man
vb = velocity of the man
The subscript 1 is known as initials while 2 is for finals.
Before the man throws the ball, he starts at rest, meaning the initial velocity of the ball and the initial velocity of the man are zero. So
0 = ma*va2 + mb*vb2
Given ma = 10 kg; va = 20 m/s; mb = 90 kg; vb is unknown, therefore
-(mb*vb2) = ma*va2
vb2 = -(ma*va2)/mb2 = -(10*20)/90 = -2.22 m/s
Notice that his velocity is negative because when he finally throws the ball (say to the right), he moves at the opposite direction (that is to the left) on which he stands on the frictionless surface.

A stationary 12.5 kg object is located on a table near the surface of the earth. The coefficient of static friction between the
Sophie [7]

When the object is at rest, there is a zero net force due the cancellation of the object's weight <em>w</em> with the normal force <em>n</em> of the table pushing up on the object, so that by Newton's second law,

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0   →   <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 112.5 N ≈ 113 N

where <em>m</em> = 12.5 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The minimum force <em>F</em> needed to overcome <u>maximum</u> static friction <em>f</em> and get the object moving is

<em>F</em> > <em>f</em> = 0.50 <em>n</em> = 61.25 N ≈ 61.3 N

which means a push of <em>F</em> = 15 N is not enough the get object moving and so it stays at rest in equilibrium. While the push is being done, the net force on the object is still zero, but now the horizontal push and static friction cancel each other.

So:

(a) Your free body diagram should show the object with 4 forces acting on it as described above. You have to draw it to scale, so whatever length you use for the normal force and weight vectors, the length of the push and static friction vectors should be about 61.3/112.5 ≈ 0.545 ≈ 54.5% as long.

(b) Friction has a magnitude of 15 N because it balances the pushing force.

(c) The object is in equilibrium and not moving, so the acceleration is zero.

Select the correct answer.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

A. continental-oceanic convergent

Explanation:

I knew it couldn't be B because it's oceanic and <em>continental</em>, not oceanic and <em>oceanic</em>.

Next, I noticed the word <em>convergent</em>, which implies "coming together" to me.

I looked it up and noticed the term <em>convergent</em> referred to a plate boundary where a plate slips under (<em>subducted</em>) another, so I knew it was A.

Hopefully, this helps you understand the question better. Have a great day!
