The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the radius of the wheel divided by the radius of the axle. On wheel and axle A,

the wheel and axle are very close in size. On wheel and axle B, the radius of the wheel is much greater than the radius of the axle.

Answer:

Wheel and axle B

Explanation:

It is given that the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the radius of the wheel divided by the radius of the axle.

Mathematically, it can be written as :

MA=\dfrac{r_w}{r_a}.................(1)

On wheel and axle A, the wheel and axle are very close in size while on wheel and axle B, the radius of the wheel is much greater than the radius of the axle.

From equation (1) it is clear that the mechanical advantage is directly proportional to the radius of wheel.

So, the mechanical advantage of wheel and axle B is greater.

When it reaches an altitude of 3600 m, where the temperature is 5.0∘C and the pressure only 0.68 atm, how will its volume compar
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The question was incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Explanation:

A helium-filled balloon escapes a child’s hand at sea level and 20.0C. When it reaches an altitude of 3600 m, where the temperature is 5.0∘C and the pressure only 0.68 atm, how will its volume compare to that at sea level?

The ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

P = absolute pressure

V = Volume of a gas

n = no of moles of a gas

R = ideal gas constant

T = Absolute temperature of a gas

For initial and final states:

P_{i}V_{i} = nRT_{i}   \\P_{f}V_{f} = nRT_{f}   \\\frac{V_{f} }{V_{i} } = \frac{P_{i}T_{f} }{P_{f}T_{i} }

= 1.4

as the trait is dominant and controlled by a single gene,the mutation must have occurred on both diploid copies. true or false?
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A dominant trait is a trait that is inherited from parents. It is a trait that is obtained from a particular copy or type of a gene that overshadows or overwhelms the effects of another type or copy of that gene. Dominant traits are controlled by a single gene.

Therefore , as the trait is dominant and controlled by a single gene,the mutation must have occurred on both diploid copies is a false statement.

A car is traveling with 90km/hr and another car with 20m/s in opposite direction. Calculate the relative velocity.
Slav-nsk [51]
90 km/h is 25 m/s
the relative velocity when cars are traveling in opposite directions is the sum of the two
25+20= 45 m/s
