Lenny wrote the steps he used to find the mass of an object with 400 J of energy moving at a velocity of 8 m/s. 1. Find the square of 8 m/s, which is 64 m2/s2. 2. Divide kinetic energy, 400 J, by 64 m2/s2, which is 6.25 J per m2/s2. 3. Divide 6.25 J per m2/s2 by 2 to get a mass of 3.125 kg. Which best describes Lenny’s error? In Step 1, he should have found the square root of 400 J instead of squaring 8 m/s. In Step 1, he should have multiplied 8 m/s by 2 instead of squaring it. In Step 2, he should have divided 64 m2/s2 by 400 J instead of dividing 400 J by 64 m2/s2. In Step 3, he should have multiplied 6.25 J per m2/s2 by 2 instead of dividing it by 2.

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.

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
