Electromagnetic waves can transfer energy without a material medium.

3 examples of elctromagnetic energy include: Radio wave, X-rays and gamma rays

A wave is a disturbance that transfers energy from one point to another.

Electromagnetic waves are waves that does not require a material medium for the tranfer of energy

Radio wave
Gamma rays
X-rays
Light wave

Atmospheric pressure is measured to be 14.769 psia. a. What would be the equivalent reading of a water barometer (inches of H20)

Fofino [41]

Answer:

(a) water height =408.66 in.

(b) mercury height=30.04 in.

Explanation:

Given: P=14.769 psi ( 1 psi= 6894.76 $\frac{N}{m^2}$ )

we know that $P=\rho\times g\timesh$

where $\rho =Density,g=9.81\frac{m}{s^2}$

h=height.

Given that P=14.769 psi ⇒P= 101828.6 7 $\dfrac{N}{m^2}$

(a) $P=\rho_{w}\times g\times h_{w}$

$\rho_{w}=1000\frac{Kg}{m^3}$

⇒101828.67= $1000\times 9.81\times h_{w}$

$h_{w}$ =10.38 m

So water barometer will read 408.66 in. (1 m=39.37 in)

(b) $P=\rho_{hg}\times g\times h_{hg}$

$\rho_{hg}$ =13600

So 101828.67= $13600\times 9.81\times h_{hg}$

$h_{hg}$ =0.763 m

So mercury barometer will read 30.04 in.

Which of the following statements about glycogen metabolism is FALSE?

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Glycogen is the primary energy source for muscle and liver cells.

Explanation:

Glycogen is a readily mobilized storage form of glucose. It is a very large, branched polymer of glucose residues that can be broken down to yield glucose molecules when energy is needed. Most of the glucose residues in glycogen are linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Branches at about every tenth residue are created by α-1,6-glycosidic bonds.

Glycogen is not as reduced as fatty acids are and consequently not as energy rich. Why do animals store any energy as glycogen? Why not convert all excess fuel into fatty acids? Glycogen is an important fuel reserve for several reasons. The controlled breakdown of glycogen and release of glucose increase the amount of glucose that is available between meals. Hence, glycogen serves as a buffer to maintain blood-glucose levels. Glycogen's role in maintaining blood-glucose levels is especially important because glucose is virtually the only fuel used by the brain, except during prolonged starvation. Moreover, the glucose from glycogen is readily mobilized and is therefore a good source of energy for sudden, strenuous activity. Unlike fatty acids, the released glucose can provide energy in the absence of oxygen and can thus supply energy for anaerobic activity.
