Cosmic ray particles can do permanent damage to DNA, especially if both strands are damaged. Explain why damage to just one base

on one strand of a DNA molecule may be repairable.

One strand has the ability to for form its corresponding strand by means of the deoxy nucleosides existing in the cell. But conversely, if both the arrangements of DNA are impaired, then it would be impossible for the DNA to generate two strands that happened of same match from the current nucleosides. Henceforth, one strand damage can be remembered but double stranded can be lasting or permanent.

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 14.9 m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 107 m from the base
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

1) t=1.743 sec

2)Vo=61.388  m/sec

3)the x component of its velocity just be- fore it strikes the ground is the same as the  initial velocity of the ball that is=61.388  m/sec

4)Vf=17.08 m/s

Explanation:

1)From second equation of motion we get

h=Vit+(1/2)gt^2

here in case(a): Vi=0 m/s,h=14.9m,,put these values in above equation to find the time the ball is in motion

14.9=(0)*t+(1/2)(9.8)t^2

t^2=14.9/4.9

t^2=3.040 sec

t=1.743 sec

2) s=Vo*t

Putting values we get

107=Vo*1.743

Vo=61.388  m/sec

3)the x component of its velocity just be- fore it strikes the ground is the same as the  initial velocity of the ball that is=61.388  m/sec

4)From third equation of motion we know that

Vf^2-Vi^2=2gh

here Vi=0 m/s,h=14.9 m

Vf^2=Vi^2+2gh=0+2(9.8)(14.9)

Vf^2=292.04

Vf=17.08 m/s

You push a table 8 meters for 16 minuutes and do 6720 j of work how much power do ypu use
Yuri [45]
P=W/t

P=Power
W=Work
t=Time

Convert 16 minutes in seconds:
16 mins = 960 secs

P=6720/960=7.23 W [Watt]

when a person uses an iron to remove the wrinkles from a shirt, why does heat travel from the iron to the shirt?
artcher [175]
I think the answer to your question is that:
There is chemical energy being produced (by the water) and that causes the base of iron to absorb the heat. Then when the heated base of the iron is placed onto the shirt, the heat flattens the wrinkles on it.
