He archerfish is a type of fish well known for its ability to catch resting insects by spitting a jet of water at them. this spitting ability is enabled by the presence of a groove in the roof of the mouth of the archerfish. the groove forms a long, narrow tube when the fish places its tongue against it and propels drops of water along the tube by compressing its gill covers. when an archerfish is hunting, its body shape allows it to swim very close to the water surface and look upward without creating a disturbance. the fish can then bring the tip of its mouth close to the surface and shoot the drops of water at the insects resting on overhead vegetation or floating on the water surface. part a: at what speed v should an archerfish spit the water to shoot down a floating insect located at a distance 0.800 m from the fish? assume that the fish is located very close to the surface of the pond and spits the water at an angle 60 degrees above the water surface. part b: now assume that the insect, instead of floating on the surface, is resting on a leaf above the water surface at a horizontal distance 0.600 m away from the fish. the archerfish successfully shoots down the resting insect by spitting water drops at the same angle 60 degrees above the surface and with the same initial speed v as before. at what height h above the surface was the insect?

Nitrogen (n2) undergoes an internally reversible process from 6 bar, 247°c during which pν1.2 = constant. the initial volume is 0.1 m3 and the work for the process is 121.14 kj. assuming ideal gas behavior, and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine heat transfer, in kj, and the entropy change, in kj/s. show the process on a t-s diagram.

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.
