A study of the Earth by The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) determined there were 7.80×1011 tons of carbon stored in living plants on the Earth's surface, at the time of the study. Calculate the mass of carbon stored in these plants in grams. (1 ton equals 907.19 kg)

Large electric fields in cell membranes cause ions to move through the cell wall. the field strength in a typical membrane is 1.0 x 10 7 n/c. what is the magnitude of the force on a calcium ion with charge +e? what is its acceleration? is it possible for a particle with the same charge as as calcium to have a different acceleration if placed at this location? what would change the acceleration: mass of the particle? diameter of the particle?
