Answer:

The electrochemical gradient of the ion that is being transported.

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion through protein is defined as a form of facilitated transport whereby passive movement of ions along concentration gradients are guided by the presence of other ions.

Thus, the electrochemical gradient of the ion being transported is what facilitates it

Give the correct balanced equation for the single replacement reaction of magnesium with aluminum oxide

diamong [38]

Answer:

Al2O3 + 3Mg ===》 3MgO + 2Al

Explanation:

Reaction of aluminium oxide with magnesium metal would form magnesium oxide and aluminium metal.

Balancing the stoichiometric equation, the number of atoms at the reactant must be equal to the number of atoms at the product so that law of conservation of matter must hold.

Al203 + 3Mg ====》 3MgO + 2Al

2 aluminium at reactant = 2 aluminium at product

3 oxygen at reactant = 3 oxygen at product

3 magnesium at reactant = 3 magnesium at product.

A) Julie is running to the right at 5 m/s, as shown in the 1st figure. Balls 1 and 2 are thrown toward her at 10 m/s by friends

Svetach [21]

Part 1)

here Julie is running at speed 5 m/s

So here two balls are thrown at speed 10 m/s towards Julie with respect to her friend standing on the ground.

So here this all speed is real speed of all.

Now as per Anita (let say she is one of her friend standing on ground) the speed of two balls will be same as the given speed as she is observing from ground or stationary frame

As per the frame of Julie

speed of ball 1

$v_{1j} = v_1 - v_j$

$v_{1j} = 10 - 5 = 5 m/s$ towards her in same side

speed of ball 2

$v_{2j} = v_2 - v_j$

$v_{2j} = -10 - 5 = -15 m/s$ towards her from opposite side

Part b)

Now in this case the speed of two balls is given with respect to Julie

so we can say

for ball 1

$v_{1j} = v_1 - v_j$

$10 = v_1 - 5$

so in ground frame speed of ball 1 is

$v_1 = 15 m/s$

Similarly for ball 2

$v_{2j} = v_2 - v_j$

$-10 = v_2 - 5$

So speed in ground frame of ball 2 is

$v_2 = - 5 m/s$

so its 5 m/s from opposite side

One major advantage of alternating current over direct current is that you can use alternating current with a device known as a

Oksanka [162]

transformer makes use of mutual induction for its operation in which change in magnetic field in one coil due to variation of current , induces voltage in the other coil. so changing magnetic field in the primary coil is very much needed for the transformer. Alternating current is a current which varies with time , hence it is suitable to produce changing magnetic field in the primary coil. on the other hand , the direct current remains constant all the time. hence can not produce a changing magnetic field. so DC current is not useful for transformers.
