That's true, and there are also other mechanisms that can also create floods.

Recall that the spring constant is inversely proportional to the number of coils in the spring, or that shorter springs equate t

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

$x_1= 0.0425m$

Explanation:

Using the tension in the spring and the force of the tension can by describe by

T = kx

, T = mg

Therefore:

$m*g = k*x$

With two springs, let, T1 be the tension in each spring, x1 be the extension of each spring. The spring constant of each spring is 2k so:

$T_1 = 2k*x_1$

$2T_1 = m*g=4k x_1$

Solve to x1

$x_1=\frac{m*g}{4k}$

$x_1=\frac{k*x}{4*k}$

$x_1=\frac{x}{4}$

$x_1 = 0.170 / 4$

$x_1= 0.0425m$

The critical angle for water is 49°. If a ray of light

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Snell's Law states

Ni sin i = Nr sin r

Judging from the question the source of the ray is in the water (directed up)

or NI = 1 / sin 49 Ni = 1.325 deg the critical angle

From inside the pond:

Nr = 1.325 * sin 45 / 1 = 94 deg

So refraction can occur outside the pond and you do not have total internal refection.

What mRNA sequence would result from the following DNA sequence?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

UAC CUG AGG AUC

Explanation:

The mRNA sequence from ATG GAC TCC TAG DNA sequence would be UAC CUG AGG AUC.

According to Chargaff's base pairing rule, the purine bases always pair with pyrimidine bases. Specifically, Adenine base must pair with Thymine base while Guanine base must pair with Cytosine base. In RNA, Thymine base is replaced with Uracil base.

Hence:

ATG GAC TCC TAG will pair with

UAC CUG AGG AUC
