A gold sphere of radius R=100 μm and density 19g/cm^3 falls through water. Given the viscosity of water is about 10^-3​ Pa s and

the density of water is 1.0g/cm^3, calculate the terminal velocity of the sphere. The viscous drag coefficient for a sphere is α=6π.
Don't forget to consider the buoyant force on the sphere when calculating net force!

The terminal velocity of gold sphere is 39.2 cm/s

<h3>What is terminal velocity?</h3>

Terminal velocity is the maximum velocity attainable for an object as it falls through a fluid.

<h3>How to calculate the terminal velocity of the gold sphere?</h3>

The terminal velocity of the gold sphere is given by v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η where

  • g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²,
  • r = radius of sphere = 100 μm = 100 × 10⁻⁶ m = 10⁻⁴ m = 10⁻² cm,
  • ρ = density of sphere = 19 g/cm³,
  • σ = density of water = 1.0 g/cm³ and
  • η = viscosity of water = 10⁻³ Pa-s

So, susbtituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

v = 2gr²(ρ - σ)/9η

v = 2 × 9.8m/s²× (10⁻² cm)²(19 g/cm³ - 1.0 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × (18 g/cm³)/(9 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 2 × 980 cm/s² × 10⁻⁴ cm² × 2 g/cm³/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 3920 g/s² × 10⁻⁴/(1 × 10⁻³ Pa-s)

v = 392 cm/s × 10³ × 10⁻⁴

v = 392 × 10⁻¹ cm/s

v = 39.2 cm/s

So, the terminal velocity is 39.2 cm/s

Identify the palindromic base sequence in the DNA donor molecule shown.
Airida [17]

Explanation:

Since a double helix is formed by two paired antiparallel strands of nucleotides that run in opposite directions, and the nucleotides always pair in the same way (adenine (A) with thymine (T) in DNA or uracil (U) in RNA; cytosine (C) with guanine (G)), a (single-stranded) nucleotide sequence is said to be a palindrome

trapecia [35]

Answer:8.76\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}

Explanation:

Given

n=5

0.3 fraction recrystallize after 100 min

According to Avrami equation

y=1-e^{-kt^n}

where y=fraction Transformed

k=constant

t=time

0.3=1-e^{-k(100)^5}

e^{-k(100)^5} =0.7

Taking log both sides

-k\cdot (10^{10}=\ln 0.7

k=3.566\times 10^{-11}

At this Point we want to compute t_{0.5}\ i.e.\ y=0.5

0.5=1-e^{-kt^n}

0.5=e^{-kt^n}

0.5=e^{-3.566\times 10^{-11}\cdot (t)^5}

taking log both sides

\ln 0.5=-3.566\times 10^{-11}\cdot (t)^5

t^5=1.943\times 10^{10}

t=114.2 min

Rate of Re crystallization at this temperature

t^{-1}=8.76\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}
