Electric potential

example of gravitational potential energy changing to kinetic energy. Potential energy can come in many forms. For example, chemical energy can be stored and later converted into heat or electricity.…

Discuss the relationship between energy and society. The principle question to ask when examining the relationship between energy and society is whether society drive changes in energy or energy stimulates societal change. The most common answer is that as society innovates and grows more forms of energy are harnessed and so our use of energy changes. However, at a more fundamental level, every major change in human history has been caused by the availability of energy in its various forms. The…

This study analyzed the differences and the relationships of the isolated sciatic nerve in regards to the compound action potential and the neuromuscular junction stimulations of the Rana pipens gastrocnemius. A total of five exercises were used to identify the effects on the stimulation of the sciatic nerve and the gastrocnemius. A dissection for both labs were performed to isolate the nerve and to isolate the gastrocnemius. Both experiments used LabChart to perform various stimulations on the…

Body Responses: Why Do We Respond and React You hear the sound of your favorite song, Hotline Bling, coming from your phone. You think your radio randomly turned on from your phone, but your phone is actually ringing. In a matter of seconds after hearing your phone ring, you run to your phone. Finally, you pick up your phone and answer it. Although a process such as answering your phone may sound simple, there are many activities and processes that are occurring in your body to make answering…

can not be created or destroyed only converted into different forms and traded between systems. All energy is measured in Joules (J). When we talk about waterfalls and dams, the energy’s original form is Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) which is energy that comes from the potential all objects have to move due to gravity when they are not on the surface of the Earth. The GPE of an object is just the relationship between the object’s mass, the acceleration due to gravity which is a…

Hydropower is power that is generated from a dam by making water fall from a certain height behind the dam to a power plant that is lower in height. As a result, the water behind the dam has gravitational potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy as it falls to the power plant. The power plant uses its turbines to convert the kinetic energy to electrical energy. In this assignment, we are figuring out “to what extent can hydropower meet the electrical energy needs in the United…

diffuses across the synaptic cleft and travel towards the post-synaptic membrane of the target cell in less than a millisecond. Neurotransmitter then binds to the highly specific receptor sites on the post-synaptic membrane. The binding changes the potential or electrical…

(The nervous system Louisa Idzal) The nervous system is all connected because it’s a web of nerve cells and fibers that all send nerve impulses throughout and between body parts. The nervous system is really important because it’s in charge of sending messages to the spinal cord and brain to and from all parts of the body. Main organs of the nervous system are Nervous Tissue, Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves, Sense Organs, and the Cerebrospinal Fluid. The nervous tissue is the main tissue of the…

1. What energy system(s) does the Wingate Test rely? Explain. The energy systems that the Wingate test relies on, is glycolysis and ATP-PCr. Anaerobic power is used for high intensity, short duration exercises, and activities. The Wingate test is anaerobic, which will utilize fuel through glycolysis and the ATP-PCr system. The Wingate test is very short in duration, and high in intensity, which means oxygen is not present in this process. The ATP-PCr system breaks down ATP into ADP for energy.…

surface at an angle, the more potential she will have for flips. You can find a gymnast’s angular momentum with the formula: L = (r)(m)(v). By analyzing the equation, you can determine that, while the mass (m) and angular momentum (L) are considered a constant, lowering the distance of the body from the axis of rotation (r), will lead to an increase in velocity (v), this velocity allows for the gymnast to attain the maximum amount of force, leading to more potential for twists and flips while in…
