Answer:

no change in speed, therefore the body cannot be accelerated. a=0

Explanation:

When a person is accelerating his speed must change, if the speed is in the same direction as the acceleration the speed increases and if the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the speed it decreases.

In this case there is no change in speed, therefore the body cannot be accelerated.

The membrane of a living cell can be approximated by a parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 4.50×10−9 m2 , a plate separ

Marizza181 [45]

The energy stored in the membrane is $6.44\cdot 10^{-14} J$

Explanation:

The capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by

$C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}$

where

k is the dielectric constant of the material

$\epsilon_0$ is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

For the membrane in this problem, we have

k = 4.6

$A=4.50\cdot 10^{-9} m^2$

$d=8.1\cdot 10^{-9} m$

Substituting, we find its capacitance:

$C=\frac{(4.6)(8.85\cdot 10^{-12})(4.50\cdot 10^{-9})}{8.1\cdot 10^{-9}}=2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F$

Now we can find the energy stored: for a capacitor, it is given by

$U=\frac{1}{2}CV^2$

where

$C=2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F$ is the capacitance

$V=7.55\cdot 10^{-2} V$ is the potential difference

Substituting,

$U=\frac{1}{2}(2.26\cdot 10^{-11} F)(7.55\cdot 10^{-2})^2=6.44\cdot 10^{-14} J$

Cellular phones use _____?

dangina [55]

Let's see: frequency of cellular phone waves (GSM phones) is (800-1900 MHz). If we look at the table of the electromagnetic spectrum, we can see that this range is contained within the frequencies of the microwaves, which include waves in the range 300 MHz-300 GHz.

So, summarizing, the correct answer is "microwaves".
