What are the characteristics of prokaryotes?

1 answer:

5 0

Prokaryotes lack an organized nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Prokaryotic DNA is found in a central part of the cell called the nucleoid. The cell wall of a prokaryote acts as an extra layer of protection helps maintain cell shape, and prevents dehydration.

The wavelength of light that has a frequency of 1.20 × 1013 s-1 is ________ m.

klio [65]

The relationship between frequency and wavelength for an electromagnetic wave is
$c=f \lambda$
where
f is the frequency
$\lambda$ is the wavelength
$c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light.

For the light in our problem, the frequency is $f=1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}$ , so its wavelength is (re-arranging the previous formula)
$\lambda= \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{1.20 \cdot 10^{13} s^{-1}}= 2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}m$

A 100-N force causes an object to accelerate at 2 m/s/s. What is the mass of the object?

Kitty [74]

Answer:

$50\; \rm kg$ .

Explanation:

By Newton's Second Law, the acceleration $a$ of an object is proportional to the net force $\sum F$ on it. In particular, if the mass of the object is $m$ , then

$\sum F = m \cdot a$ .

Rewrite this equation to obtain:

$\displaystyle m = \frac{\sum F}{a}$ .

In this case, the assumption is that the $100\; \rm N$ force is the only force that is acting on the object. Hence, the net force $\sum F$ on the object would also be

Make sure that all values are in their standard units. Forces should be in Newtons (same as $\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2}$ , and the acceleration of the object should be in meters-per-second-squared ( $\rm m \cdot s^{-2}$ ). Apply the equation $\displaystyle m = \frac{\sum F}{a}$ to find the mass of the object.
