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.
Answer:
6.39 J of energy is needed to generate 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg mass
Explanation:
According to the Equation: E = mc²
where the mass, m = 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg
the speed of light, c = 3 * 10⁸ m/s
The amount of energy needed to generate a mass of 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ kg is calculated as follows:
E = (0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶) (3 * 10⁸)²
E = 0.71 * 10⁻¹⁶ * 9 * 10¹⁶
E = 0.71 * 9
E = 6.39 J
Answer
t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy:
where,
P = Electric Power of Heater = 300 W
t = time required = ?
m_g = mass of glass = 300 g = 0.3 kg
m_w = mass of water = 250 g = 0.25 kg
C_g = speicific heat of glass = 840 J/kg.°C
C_w = specific heatof water = 4184 J/kg.°C
ΔT_g = ΔT_w = Change in Temperature of Glass and water = 100°C - 15°C
ΔT_g = ΔT_w = 85°C
Therefore,
<u>t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min</u>
NOTE: The given question is incomplete.
<u>The complete question is given below.</u>
A student measures the speed of yellow light in water to be 2.00 x 10⁸ m/s. Calculate the speed of light in air.
Solution:
Speed of yellow light in water (v) = 2.00 x 10⁸ m/s
Refractive Index of water with respect to air (μ) = 4/3
Refractive Index = Speed of yellow light in air / Speed of yellow light in water
Or, The speed of yellow light in air = Refractive Index × Speed of yellow light in water
or, = (4/3) × 2.00 x 10⁸ m/s
or, = 2.67 × 10⁸ m/s ≈ 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s
Hence, the required speed of yellow light in the air will be 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s.
Answer:
0.02
Explanation:
coefficient of kinetic friction = μ
force of friction = Ff
Normal Force = FN, but
FN = -W
Ff = -μFN
so μ = Ff/FN
= 4N/200N
= 0.02.
