Answer: Resting Membrane Potential

Explanation:

The <u>resting membrane potential</u> refers to the difference in voltage between the inside and outside of the cell membrane when the cell is at physiological rest. It should be noted that <u>the cell membrane is a selective semipermeable barrier, which only allows the transit through it of certain molecules and prevents the transit of others. </u>

This selectivity causes an uneven distribution of charged particles (ions), as the membrane only accepts some types of ions.

Now, in the case of neurons, which are electrically excitable nerve cells; the transport of electrical signals is due to these changes in the permeability and asymmetric distribution of ions (mainly sodium and potassium) when the neuron is not excited (at rest).

Explain Newton's third law in your own words.
Kazeer [188]
Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

How can you incorporate the information
il63 [147K]

Explanation:

There are many ways to achieve a healthier lifestyle and increase fitness. Healthy eating and constant exercise are essential for maintaining good physical and mental health. Through effective nutrition the human body is able to function better, there is an increase in disposition, improvement in immunity, improvement in blood rates, etc. Physical exercise, on the other hand, assists in strengthening muscles, controlling blood pressure, preventing cardiovascular disease, greater satisfaction, less stress, etc.

Some simple examples that can assist in improving health and fitness are:

  • Reduction of processed foods, sugars and soft drinks.
  • Increased fiber intake
  • Daily walks of at least 30 minutes
  • Increased water consumption
  • Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables
  • Incorporate meditation and yoga practices

A 12-pack of Omni-Cola (mass 4.30 kg) is initially at rest ona horizontal floor. It is then pushed in a straight line for1.20 m
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

a)  W = 46.8 J  and b)   v = 3.84 m/s

Explanation:

The energy work theorem states that the work done on the system is equal to the variation of the kinetic energy

    W = ΔK = k_{f} -K₀

a) work is the scalar product of force by distance

    W = F . d

Bold indicates vectors. In this case the dog applies a force in the direction of the displacement, so the angle between the force and the displacement is zero, therefore, the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product.

    W = F d cos θ

    W = 39.0 1.20 cos 0

    W = 46.8 J

b) zero initial kinetic language because the package is stopped

    W -W_{fr} = k_{f} -K₀

    W - fr d= ½ m v² - 0

    W - μ N d = ½ m v

   on the horizontal surface using Newton's second law

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

 

     W - μ mg d = ½ m v

    v² = (W -μ mg d) 2/m  

    v = √(W -μ mg d) 2/m

    v = √[(46.8 -  0.30 4.30 9.8 1.20) 2/4.3 ]

    v = √(31.63 2/4.3)

    v = 3.84 m/s

The article is not found here but surveys are important because they are representative samples of a population.

<h3>What is a survey?</h3>

A survey is a useful tool based on population samples, which is used to make statistical analyses in a given investigation.

Differences in surveys are generally due to small sample sizes, which may lead to errors in the analysis of data.

In conclusion, the article is not found here but surveys are important because they are representative samples of a population.
