Explain what the interviewer meant when he said that genetic mutations are like misprints in a book.

Physics
1 answer:
asambeis [7]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A publisher can misprint a book in several different ways. The publisher can miss words, make spelling errors, mix up paragraphs, or delete some text entirely. With such errors, the text will be inaccurate, and people reading that part will get confused. Mutations in genes happen similarly. At times, parts of the gene may change entirely, leading to altered products. There are many types of gene mutations, but all types of mutations can potentially affect the cell and its function.

. A newly discovered planet has three times the mass and five times the radius of Earth. What is the ratio of the acceleration d
NikAS [45]

Answer:

0.12

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity of a planet with mass M and radius R is given as:

g = (G*M) / R²

Where G is gravitational constant.

The mass of the planet M = 3 times the mass of earth = 3 * 5.972 * 10^24 kg

The radius of the planet R = 5 times the radius of earth = 5 * 6.371 * 10^6 m

Therefore:

g(planet) = (6.67 * 10^(-11) * 3 * 5.972 * 10^24) / (5 * 6.371 * 10^6)²

g(planet) = 1.18 m/s²

Therefore ratio of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet, g(planet) to acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the planet, g(earth) is:

g(planet)/g(earth) = 1.18/9.8 = 0.12

You and a friend each apply 500 N of force to move a cement block 50 cm. How much work was done on the cement block?
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

 W = 500 J

Explanation:

Work is defined by

         W = F . x

if we develop the dot product

         W = F x cos θ

where is the angle between the force and the displacement, in this case the angle is zero, so cos 0 = 1

          W = F x

indicate that each person applies a force of 500 N, so the total force is

         F = 1000 N

let's reduce the distance to the SI system

          x = 50 cm = 0.50 m

let's calculate

          W = 1000 0.50

          W = 500 J
