Enclosed is some guidance algebra.I find this q a little confusing. It quotes "RC" which usually makes me think of electrical circuits and time constants based on converting calculating RC value and equating that to t for one time constant then 2RC for two time constants etc. The theory being that after 5 time constants - 5RC - a circuit is stable. BUT, this q then goes on to mention HALF LIFE. The curves for both half life and time constant are both exponential, as in the number e to the power of something, but the algebra is slightly different. I hope my algebra is ok.

Suppose that the resistance between the walls of a biological cell is 6.8 × 109 ω. (a) what is the current when the potential di

GenaCL600 [577]

(a) We can find the current flowing between the walls by using Ohm's law:
$I= \frac{\Delta V}{R}$
where $\Delta V=69 mV=0.069 V$ is the potential difference and $R=6.8\cdot 10^9 \Omega$ is the resistance. Substituting these values, we get
$I=1.01 \cdot 10^{-11} A$

(b) The total charge flowing between the walls is the product between the current and the time interval:
$Q=I \Delta t$
The problem says $\Delta t=0.86 s$ , so the total charge is
$Q=(1.01\cdot 10^{-11} A)(0.86 s)=8.73 \cdot 10^{-12} C$

The current consists of Na+ ions, each of them having a charge of $e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C$ . To find the number of ions flowing, we can simply divide the total charge by the charge of a single ion:
$N= \frac{Q}{e} = \frac{8.73 \cdot 10^{-12}C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C} = 5.45 \cdot 10^7 ions$

A body weighs 10newton in air and 9.5 in water. How will it weigh in alchohol if density 0.8gcm-³

Katen [24]

Answer:

The weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of body in air, Wₐ = 10 N

The weight of the body in water, Wₓ = 9.5 N

The density of the alcohol, ρ = 0.8 g/cm³

= 800 kg/m³

The weight of body in water = weight of object in air - weight of water displaced

9.5 N = 10 N - weight of water displaced

Weight of water displaced = 0.5 N

The mass of the displaced water, m = 0.5 / 9.8

= 0.051 kg

Therefore the volume of the water displaced,

V = m / ρ

= 0.051 / 1000

= 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ m³

<em>The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of alcohol displaced</em>

Therefore, the mass of the alcohol displaced, = V x ρ

= 5.1 x 10⁻⁵ x 800

= 0.0405 kg

The weight of the alcohol displaced, w = 0.0405 x 9.8

= 0.4 N

Therefore,

The weight of body in alcohol = weight of object in air - weight of alcohol displaced

W₀ = W - w

= 10 N - 0.4 N

= 9.6 N

Hence, the weight of object in alcohol is, W₀ = 9.6 N

K donates, or transfers, one electron to bromine, which has 7 electrons. Both K and Br are now stable with 8 electrons. K become

Charra [1.4K]

K is cation by losing of electron whereas Br is anion due to accepting of electrons.

<h3 /><h3>Is charge appears when an atom lose or accept electron?</h3>

Yes, the positive ion appears on K and become cation whereas the negative ion bears on Br which make it anion because of losing and gaining of electron by these atoms. This transferring of electrons leads to formation of ionic bonds between them.

So we can conclude that K is cation by losing of electron whereas Br is anion due to accepting of electrons.
