Why is it necessary for cells to be so small​

Physics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Cells are small because they need to keep a surface area to volume ratio that allows for adequate intake of nutrients while being able to excrete the cells waste.

Explanation:

That is why the cell needs to be small

When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force on it. This upward force is initially greater than the weight of the s
skad [1K]

Answer:

The value a = 1.1842 \ m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the sky diver is W =  968 \  N

The magnitude of the drag force is D_f  =  1085 \  N

The mass of the sky diver is m  =  98.8 \ kg

Generally the net force acting on the sky diver is mathematically represented as

F = m * a  =  D_f  - W

Hence the acceleration of the sky diver is mathematically represented as

a =  \frac{D_f - W}{ m}

=> a =  \frac{1085 - 968}{  98.8}

=> a = 1.1842 \ m/s^2

When an aluminum bar is connected between a hot reservoir at 720 K and a cold reservoir at 358 K, 3.00 kJ of energy is transferr
disa [49]

Answer:

a.  -4.166 J/K

b. 8.37 J/K

c. 4.21 J/K

d. entropy always increases.

Explanation:

Given :

Temperature at hot reservoir , $T_h$ = 720 K

Temperature at cold reservoir , $T_c$ = 358 K

Transfer of heat, dQ = 3.00 kJ = 3000 J

(a). In the hot reservoir, the change of entropy is given by:

$dS_h= -\frac{dQ}{t_h}$              (the negative sign shows the loss of heat)

$dS_h= -\frac{3000}{720}$

      =  -4.166 J/K

(b)  In the cold reservoir, the change of entropy is given by:

$dS_c= \frac{dQ}{t_c}$              

$dS_c= \frac{3000}{358}$

      =  8.37 J/K

(c). The entropy change in the universe is given by:

$dS=dS_h+dS_c$

    = -4.16+8.37

   = 4.21 J/K

(d). According to the concept of entropy, the entropy of the universe is always increasing and never decreasing for an irreversible process. If the entropy of universe decreases, it violates the laws of thermodynamics. Hence, in part (c), the result have to be positive.

How are systems different from industries? Use an example to support your answer.
jeka94

Answer:

Explanation:

An industrial system consists of inputs, processes and outputs. The inputs are the raw materials, labor and costs of land,transport, power and other infrastructure. The processes include a wide range of activities that convert the raw material into finished products.

A crate which has a mass of m1 = 125kg is sitting on an icy surface. A rope is attached to the crate and held at angle theta 28.
devlian [24]

Answer:

μ = 0.109

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the crate.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down.

Normal force N pushing up.

Applied force P pulling at θ above the horizontal.

Friction force Nμ pushing to the left.

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + P sin θ − mg = 0

N = mg − P sin θ

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

P cos θ − Nμ = ma

P cos θ − ma = Nμ

μ = (P cos θ − ma) / N

μ = (P cos θ − ma) / (mg − P sin θ)

Given:

P = 585 N

θ = 28.0°

m = 125 kg

a = 3.30 m/s²

μ = (585 cos 28.0° − 125 kg × 3.30 m/s²) / (125 kg × 9.8 m/s² − 585 sin 28.0°)

μ = 0.109
