Chapter 7, Problem 58PQ

Consider the Earth and the Moon as a two-particle system, a. How far from the center of the Earth is the gravitational field of this two-particle system zero? b. Sketch gravitational field vectors g along the line joining the Earth and the Moon. Indicate the point at which g = 0 (Do not consider positions inside either object.)

One strain of bacteria was found to have a membrane potential of -120 mVmV at a pHpH of 7.5. A bacterium can be modeled as a 1.5-μmμm-diameter sphere. How many positive ions are needed on the exterior surface to establish this membrane potential? (There are an equal number of negative ions on the interior surface.) Assume that the membrane properties are the same as those of mammalian cells.
