Why you use liquid nitrogen in eds detector?

The ED spectrometer is comprised of a liquid nitrogen (LN2) dewar, Si crystal, and preamplifier. The special Si crystal is mounted at the end of the detector located closest to the specimen. When X-rays strike the Si crystal very small signals are produced. These signals are amplified in the detector and sent on to the analysis electronics in the computer for further processing. The crystal is cooled by a cold finger, an extension of the LN2 dewar. Liquid nitrogen cools and therefore stabilizes the electronic properties of the crystal, improving the measurements of minute X-ray signals.

What is reverse osmosis system to purify water?

A R.O. machine contains a filter membrane that water is forced through. It mixes with a caustic chemical in a flocking process. Dirt is suspended. When reverse pressure is applied only the purified water is sent along to be used.


Why optical fiber is slowly replacing copper cables in telecommunications?

Copper wire passes computer communications through the use of modulated carrier waves. RF energy is susceptible to resistance which reduces the signal over distance according to the Rho value of the copper wire. The longer the wire the higher the resistance the less signal is received at the other end. Secondly, being an RF signal, copper wire is susceptible to receiving signals from other sources which can cause interference though inter-modulation products caused by phase sum and difference between competing signals. Thirdly, RF signals are subject to standing waves which are caused by mismatches between feeders. This mismatch can prevent the signal from leaving the feeder (Copper wire) which in turn can prevent the signal from being received at the other end and cause the transmitter amplifier to become stressed and fail. Finally, copper wire is limited in the speed of the signal which can be transmitted. Fibre optical cable With multi-frequency fibre cables multiple signals can be sent down one cable at one time. Dependent on the purity for the fibre cable there is very little optical resistance runs of over 20km can be easily achieved. There is no transmission frequency limit to light. There is no standing wave problem. There is no interference problem from external sources. Fibre bundles carry more signals that the equivalent copper wire bundle in less physical space.

Electrical or chemical signals may control the movement of what across cell membranes?

Electrical or chemical signals may control the movement of ions across cell membranes. Ions are electrically charged particles that play crucial roles in various cellular processes. Electrical signals, such as action potentials, can trigger the opening or closing of ion channels to allow the movement of specific ions. Chemical signals, such as neurotransmitters, can also bind to receptors on the cell membrane to initiate a cascade of events that influence ion movement.


What feeds your muscles so that they can contract?

Your body produces a source of energy from food. It is called ATP. This is what your muscles use to contract. The signals are sent through a simple structure. The electronic signals from your brain travel through a gap in between your muscle and your nerves.


Spinal nerves carry what kind of information?
