Gap junctions in the intercalated discs allow impulses to be spread across the heart more quickly. This is because gap junctions allow particles/signals to pass through, thus making cells with gap junctions more able to interact.
One more thing—you posted this in the physics section rather than biology.
Part A:
For this part we’re assuming all the kinetic energy of the moving bumper car is converted into elastic potential energy in the spring since the car is brought to rest. Therefore you can find the total kinetic energy to get your answer:
KE = ½ mv^2
KE = ½ (200)(8)^2
KE = 6400 J
Part B:
Now you can use Hooke’s law to find the force:
F = kx
F = (5000)(0.2)
F = 1000 N
Answer:
Explanation:
ACCORDING TO NEWTONS SECOND LAW;
F = mass * acceleration
F = m(v-u/t)
m is the mass = 0.15kg
v is the final velocity = 11m/s
u is the initial velocity = 0m/s
t is the time = 0.015
Substitute;
F = 0.15(11-0)/0.015
F = 0.15(11)/0.015
F = 1.65/0.015
F = 110N
Hence the net force is 110N
When chilies burn in our mouths, the surrounding temperature does not affect how hot the taste of the chilli is. It is only the spiciness that we taste in our mouths. This spiciness is caused by the chemical called capsaicin. This chemical is contained in the cells of the chilli. Capsaicin irritates the cells in your mouth so that is why you feel the discomfort in your mouth.
Hope it helps :)
