A cell membrane consists of an inner and outer wall separated by a distance of approximately 10 nm. Assume that the walls act li

ke a parallel plate capacitor, each with a charge density of 10-5 C/m2, and the outer wall is positively charged. Although unrealistic, assume that the space between cell wall is filled with air. What is the magnitude of the electric field between the membranes

Answer:

E = 1.1 10⁶ N / C

Explanation:

In this case they indicate that we can approximate the membrane as a parallel plate capacitor, we can use

            E = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o }

note that in this case the electric field created by each plate goes in the same direction, they are added

let's calculate

            E =  \frac{10^{-5}}{8.85 \ 10^{-12}}

            E = 1.1 10⁶ N / C

A metal disk of radius 6.0 cm is mounted on a frictionless axle. Current can flow through the axle out along the disk, to a slid
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

0.09 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Radius of disk,r=6 cm=\frac{6}{100}=0.06 m

1 m=100 cm

B=1 T

Current,I=3 A

We have to find the frictional force at the rim between the stationary electrical contact and the rotating rim.

dF=IBdr

dF=IBdr

\tau=rdF=IBrdr

\tau=\int_{0}^{R}IBr dr

\tau=IB(\frac{R^2}{2}

Torque due to friction

\tau=R\times F

Where friction force=F

R\times F=\frac{IBR^2}{2}

F=\frac{IBR}{2}

Substitute the values

F=\frac{3\times 1\times 0.06}{2}

F=0.09 N

Is it possible for a car to be accelerating to the west while it is driving to the east?
Ber [7]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

If the acceleration has an opposite direction to the velocity of the car, this means that it is opposed to is motion. Therefore, it is called deceleration, since the car's velocity will decrease until it stops and then will start it moving towards the west.

Two pure tones are sounded together. The drawing shows the pressure variations of the two sound waves, measured with respect to
amm1812

Answer:

4.13Hz

Explanation:

f1 = 1/t1 = 1/0.022 = 45.45 Hz

f2 = 1/t2 = 1/0.0242= 41.32 Hz

No. of beats

= 45.45- 41.32

~ 4.13Hz

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ram
Sonbull [250]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.
