A hot cube of iron was heated up using 1500 J of thermal energy and was placed in a beaker of water. Before it was heated, the iron cube was 20.0 ˚C. The cube of iron raised the temperature of the water to 45.0 ˚C. If the iron cube has a mass of 133 g, what is the specific heat capacity of iron?

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.
