Potential Russia
Richard Washburn Child was an American author and diplomat who served as the U.S. ambassador to Italy between 1921 and 1924 during the rise of fascism in that country.Earlier, however, Child visited Russia on the eve of the revolution and was greatly impressed with what he saw.He praised the Russians for their spirit and independence.He optimistically believed that Russia was a dormant force ready to liberate itself from its feudal past and spring forward into modernity.He describes Russia’s resources, both natural and human, and attempts to explain the Russian mindset. Child acknowledged rumours of a stirring revolutionary mood, but he did not believe they were accurate.Reading his observations, given what we know would soon happen, is both fascinating and poignant.Child would later go on to be a huge supporter of Mussolini and editor of the dictator’s autobiography. Child urged the United States to establish partnerships with Russia and create opportunities with this powerful nation before other countries beat them to it.He believed that Great Britain was already taking steps to invest in Russia.Child also emphasised the importance of sending representatives to Russia who actually understood the customs and spoke the language.

What is the difference between equilibrium potential, resting potential, and membrane potential?
Equilibrium potential is the membrane potential at which the net flow of a particular ion across the membrane is zero. Resting potential is the membrane potential of a cell when it is at rest, typically around -70 millivolts in neurons. Membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a cell, which is maintained by the selective permeability of the cell membrane to different ions. In summary, equilibrium potential is the potential at which there is no net flow of ions, resting potential is the potential of a cell at rest, and membrane potential is the overall potential across the cell membrane.

What is potential energy or gravitational potential energy?
Potential energy, specifically gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses due to its position in a gravitational field. It is the energy that an object has because of its height above the ground. The higher an object is lifted, the greater its gravitational potential energy. This energy can be converted into kinetic energy when the object is allowed to fall or move downward.
-
How is the resting potential and membrane potential created?
The resting potential is created by the unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane. This is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium ions out of the cell and potassium ions into the cell. The membrane potential is created by the separation of charges across the cell membrane, with the inside of the cell being more negatively charged compared to the outside. This is due to the presence of negatively charged proteins inside the cell and the movement of ions across the membrane.

What is the difference between potential and potential difference?
Potential refers to the amount of stored energy in an object due to its position or state, while potential difference is the difference in potential energy between two points in a system. In other words, potential is a scalar quantity that represents the energy at a single point, while potential difference is a vector quantity that represents the change in energy between two points. Potential is measured in joules, while potential difference is measured in volts.

Potential History : Unlearning Imperialism
In this theoretical tour-de-force, renowned scholar Ariella Aïsha Azoulay calls on us to recognize the imperial foundations of knowledge and to refuse its strictures and its many violences. Azoulay argues that the institutions that make our world, from archives and museums to ideas of sovereignty and human rights to history itself, are all dependent on imperial modes of thinking.Imperialism has segmented populations into differentially governed groups, continually emphasised the possibility of progress while trying to destroy what came before, and voraciously sought out the new by sealing the past away in dusty archival boxes and the glass vitrines of museums. By practising what she calls potential history, Azoulay argues that we can still refuse the imperial violence that shattered communities, lives, and worlds, from native peoples in the Americas to the Congo ruled by Belgium's brutal King Léopold II, from dispossessed Palestinians in 1948 to displaced refugees in our own day.In Potential History, Azoulay travels alongside historical companions - an old Palestinian man who refused to leave his village in 1948, an anonymous woman in war-ravaged Berlin, looted objects and documents torn from their worlds and now housed in archives and museums - to chart the ways imperialism has sought to order time, space, and politics. Rather than looking for a new future, Azoulay calls upon us to rewind history and unlearn our imperial rights, to continue to refuse imperial violence by making present what was invented as "past" and making the repair of torn worlds the substance of politics.

What is the resting potential and the membrane potential?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. It is typically around -70 millivolts and is maintained by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane. The membrane potential refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of the cell membrane, which is essential for the transmission of signals in neurons.
-
How is the resting potential and the membrane potential formed?
The resting potential is the electrical potential difference across the membrane of a neuron when it is not being stimulated. This potential is formed by the unequal distribution of ions across the membrane, with more sodium ions outside the cell and more potassium ions inside the cell. The membrane potential is formed by the movement of these ions through ion channels in the membrane, which are selectively permeable to specific ions. The resting potential is maintained by the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell, helping to maintain the concentration gradients of these ions.

What is the difference between resting potential and membrane potential?
Resting potential refers to the membrane potential of a neuron when it is not being stimulated or sending signals. It is typically around -70 millivolts and represents the baseline electrical charge of the neuron. Membrane potential, on the other hand, refers to the difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of a neuron's cell membrane at any given moment, including both resting and active states. In summary, resting potential is a specific type of membrane potential that represents the neuron's baseline electrical state when not actively transmitting signals.

What is a potential difference and what is a potential?
A potential difference, also known as voltage, is the difference in electric potential between two points in an electric circuit. It is measured in volts and represents the amount of work needed to move a unit of electric charge between the two points. Potential, on the other hand, refers to the electric potential energy per unit charge at a specific point in an electric field. It is a scalar quantity that helps determine the direction in which electric charges will move in a circuit.
