Why is it important for DNA to be copied before cell division?

If DNA is improperly copied, the cell will function differently.
This is called a mutation.
Mutated cells do not do the originally intended purpose.

How do you tell a stars life expectancy based on an hr diagram?
e-lub [12.9K]
The X-axis of the H-R Diagram indicates the star's surface temperature in degrees Kelvin.  The Y-axis, on the other hand, indicates luminosity, or brightness.

Main sequence refers to a roughly diagonal, slightly S-curved line stretching between the upper-left and lower-right corners on which main sequence stars chart. They maintain a predictable relationship between luminosity and temperature: the brighter, the hotter. The upper-right quadrant of the H-R diagram is home to newly discovered red giants while the lower-left quadrant of the H-R Diagram belongs almost exclusively to white dwarfs.

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 2.15 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d = 0.0895 m fr
Igoryamba

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.15 kg

Distance = 0.0895 m

Amplitude = 0.0235 m

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using newton's second law

F= mg

Where, f = restoring force

kx=mg

k=\dfrac{mg}{x}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{2.15\times9.8}{0.0895}

k=235.41\ N/m

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the mass

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Here, v = A\omega

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times(A\omega)^2

Here, \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times A^2\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times235.41\times(0.0235)^2

K.E=0.06500\ J

Hence, The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

What is the principle of potentiometer?​
kupik [55]

Answer:

The principle of a potentiometer is that the potential dropped across a segment of a wire of uniform cross-section carrying a constant current is directly proportional to its length. The potentiometer is a simple device used to measure the electrical potentials (or compare the e.m.f of a cell).

Explanation:

A car and a train move together along straight, parallel paths with the same constant cruising speed v(initial). At t=0 the car
kogti [31]

Answer:

t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Δd = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

Explanation:

As v(t) = v_i + at, when the car is making full stop, v(t_1) = 0 . a = -a_i . Therefore,

0 = v_i - a_it_1\\v_i = a_it_1\\t_1 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

Apply the same formula above, with v(t_2) = v_i and a = a_i, and the car is starting from 0 speed,  we have

v_i = 0 + a_it_2\\t_2 = \frac{v_i}{a_i}

As s(t) = vt + \frac{at^2}{2}. After t = t_1 + t_2, the car would have traveled a distance of

s(t) = s(t_1) + s(t_2)\\s(t_1) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2})\\ s(t_2) = \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

Hence s(t) = (v_it_1 - \frac{a_it_1^2}{2}) + \frac{a_it_2^2}{2}

As t_1 = t_2 we can simplify s(t) = v_it_1

After t time, the train would have traveled a distance of s(t) = v_i(t_1 + t_2) = 2v_it_1

Therefore, Δd would be 2v_it_1 - v_it_1 = v_it_1 = v_i^2/a_i

A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it st
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by the product of mass and velocity with which it is moving.

Let the mass of ball is m. A tennis player smashes a ball of mass m horizontally at a vertical wall. The ball rebounds at the same speed v with which it struck the wall.

Initial speed of the ball is v and final speed, when it rebounds, is (-v). The change in momentum is given by :

p = final momentum - initial momentum

p=-mv-mv\\\\p=-2mv

So, the magnitude of change in momentum is (2mv).
