Asmall metal sphere has a mass of 0.12 g and a charge of -24.0 nc. it is 10.0 cm directly above an identical sphere that has the same charge. this lower sphere is fixed and cannot move. if the upper sphere is released, it will begin to fall. part a what is the magnitude of its initial acceleration?

Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mv across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. this potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. is this an emf? select the correct answer and explanation. 1)no. the ion pumps cannot separate charges; thus, they cannot create a potential difference. 2)yes. the ion pumps cannot separate charges, but they still can create a potential difference. 3)yes. the ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference. 4)no. the ion pumps can separate charges, but they cannot create a potential difference.
