Answer:

The workdone is  W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \  J  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The potential difference is  V  =  107 mV =  107 *10^{-3} \  V

Generally the charge on  Na^{+} is  Q_{Na^{+}} = 1.60 *10^{-19 } \  C

 Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

         W =  Q_{Na^{+}}V

=>     W = 1.60 *10^{-19 } *  107 *10^{-3}    

=>     W = 1.712 *10^{-20 } \  J

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

1.7\cdot 10^3 N

Explanation:

The impulse theorem states that the product between the force and the time interval of the collision is equal to the change in momentum:

F \Delta t = m \Delta v

where

F is the force

\Delta t is the time interval

m is the mass

\Delta v is the change in velocity

Here we have

m = 84 kg

\Delta t = 1.2 s

\Delta v = 24 m/s

So we can solve the equation to find the force:

F= \frac{m \Delta v}{\Delta t }=\frac{(84 kg)(24 m/s)}{1.2 s}=1680 N \sim 1.7\cdot 10^3 N

How is sound produced ​
Dafna11 [192]

Sounds are created when something vibrates (shakes back and forth), sending waves of vibrations into the ears of the listener. When a bell is struck, the metal vibrates. The vibrations travel through the air as sound waves.

A student pulls a 2.0-kg object to the left with a force of 30 N, while another student is pulling against the object in the opp
alex41 [277]

Answer:

5 m/s2, left

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which  states that:

\sum F=ma

where:

\sum F is the net force acting on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

In this problem, we have:

\sum F=30 N - 20 N = 10 N (to the left) is the net force on the object

m = 2.0 kg is the mass

So, the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{10}{2.0}=5.0 m/s^2

in the same direction as the force (left).

An open-topped freight car with mass 24,000 kg is coasting without friction along a level track. It is raining very hard, and th
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

(a) v = 3..6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

mass of the car (Mc) = 24,000 kg

initial velocity of the car (u) = 4 m/s

mass of water (Mw) = 3000 kg

final velocity of the car (v) = ?

(a) we can calculate the final momentum of the car by applying the conservation of momentum where

initial momentum = final momentum

Mc x U = (Mc + Mw) x V

24000 x 4 = (24000 + 3000) x v

96,000 = 27000v

v =3.6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

Please help ASAP. How is heat related to work?
earnstyle [38]
Energy is the ability to do work so I would say that thermal or heat energy is a type of work. Don’t know if this will work but that’s what I would put.
