685N and your belongings have a weight of 915N. How much work does the elevator do in lifting you and your belongings 5 stories (15.2m)? Solution: W= (685N+915N) (15.2m) W= (1600N) (15.2m) W= 24‚320Nm or J Section 2 Gravitational Potential Energy: 6. A 0.15kg ball is thrown 9.0m straight up. What is the work done by the gravitational force? And what is the change in PE? (Notice anything?) Solution: PE= m*a*h PE= (0.15kg) (9.8 m/s^2) (9.0) PE= 13.23 kg m^2/s^2 or J - The

Resting membrane potentials Definition: Large nerve fibers when not transmitting nerve signals is about 90 millivolt. That is‚ the potential inside the fiber is 90 millivolts more negative than the potential in the extracellular fluid on the outside of the fiber. The Na+-k+ pump also causes large concentration gradients for sodium and potassium across the resting nerve membrane. These gradients are the following: Sodium ( outside): 142 mEq/L Sodium ( inside): 14 mEq/L Potassium ( outside):

Abstract: Water potential is the measure of free energy of water in a solution. The purpose of this lab was to find the water potential of a potato cell. The problem of this lab was‚ if there was a high molarity of solute‚ would it have a positive or negative water potential? The hypothesis of the experiment was‚ if there is a high molarity of solute then the water potential would be lower or negative. After obtaining potatoes‚ we cut them into pieces‚ weighed them‚ and then placed them in a solution
