The movement of particles from high to low concentration. True or False

Physics
1 answer:
Digiron [165]3 years ago
8 0

Question:

Diffusion is the movement of particles from high to low concentration. True or False

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Diffusion is a process that allows the movement of substance or particles in and out of cells through a semipermeable membrane.

Diffusion is a process that allows the spread or movement of particles from the region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane.

Diffusion only occurs in gases and solution but not in solids, it also occurs only where particles can move freely.

Note: When particles move from the region of higher concentration to a lower concentration, it gives room for even, uniform and random distribution of particles.

A proton moving at 3.90 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.80 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.20 10-1
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

\theta=40^0

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic force is

F_m=evB\sin\theta

To find the angle, we make \sin\theta subject of the formula

\implies \sin\theta=\frac{F_m}{evB}=\frac{7.20\times 10^{-13}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 3.90\times 10^6\times 1.80}

\implies \sin\theta=0.641025641

\therefore \theta=\sin^{-1}=39.8683^0\\\implies \theta\approxeq 40^0

When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster.  Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

HELP DUE TONIGHT<br><br> What is friction? How does friction affect the motion of an object?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Friction always acts in the direction opposing motion. This means if friction is present, it counteracts and cancels some of the force causing the motion (if the object is being accelerated).

Explanation:

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.

A truck travels up a hill with a 5.7° incline. The truck has a constant speed of 22 m/s. What is the horizontal component of the
tester [92]

Answer:

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.

Explanation:

Please see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem.

Notice that the vector v and its x and y-components (vx and vy) form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to find the magnitude of vx, the horizontal component of the velocity.

To find vx, let´s use the following trigonometric rule of right triangles:

cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse

cos 5.7° = vx / 22 m/s

22 m/s · cos 5.7° = vx

vx = 21.9 m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 21.9 m/s.
