Answer:

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.

Explanation:

A gradient of concentration is the difference between in concentration of one place / area substance to different area. Having a molecule flow down its concentration gradient means moving the molecules from hypotonic areas to the concentration hypertonic areas

Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.

An electromagnetic wave of wavelength 435 nm is traveling in vacuum in the —z direction. The electric field has an amplitude of
joja [24]

Answer:

a) 6.9*10^14 Hz

b) 9*10^-12 T

Explanation:

Given that

The wavelength of the wave, λ = 435 nm

Amplitude of the electric field, E(max) = 2.7*10^-3 V/m

a)

The frequency of the wave can be found by using the formula

c = fλ, where c = speed of light

f = c/λ

f = 3*10^8 / 435*10^-9

f = 6.90*10^14 Hz

b)

E(max) = B(max) * c, magnetic field amplitude, B(max) =

B(max) = E(max)/c

B(max) = 2.7*10^-3 / 3*10^8

B(max) = 9*10^-12 T

c)

1T = 1 (V.s/m^2)

3. An athlete makes a long jump and follows a projectile motion. Air resistance is negligible. Which one of the following statem
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The motion under the influence of gravity is called projectile motion.

The acceleration due to gravity is constant through out the motion and it is always acting downwards.

When an athlete jumps and follow the projectile path, it always have the same horizontal velocity as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Also he has the vertical acceleration constant which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and acts towards the center of earth.  

Option (b) is correct.

. A force of 3.0 N acts through a distance of 12 m in
musickatia [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 36 J</h3>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question we have

workdone = 3 × 12

We have the final answer as

<h3>36 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
