A dragster going 15m/s increases its velocity to 25 m/s north in 4 seconds.

Physics

Tomtit [17]3 years ago
3 0
Initial speed, v₁ = 15 m/s
Final speed, v₂  = 25 m/s
Duration of the acceleration, t = 4 s

Calculate the acceleration.
a = (v₂ - v₁)/t
   = (25-15 m/s)/(4 s)
   = 2.5 m/s²

Answer: 2.5 m/s²

What are the products of linear electron flow during the light reactions of photosynthesis?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

NADPH and ATP

Explanation:

In the clear stage the light that "hits" chlorophyll excites an electron to a higher energy level. In a series of reactions, energy is converted (throughout an electron transport process) into ATP and NADPH. Water breaks down in the process releasing oxygen as a secondary product of the reaction. ATP and NADPH are used to make the C-C bonds in the dark stage.

Photophosphorylation is the process of converting the energy of the electron excited by light into a pyrophosphate bond of an ADP molecule. This occurs when water electrons are excited by light in the presence of P680. The energy transfer is similar to the chemosmotic electron transport that occurs in the mitochondria.

Light energy causes the removal of an electron from a P680 molecule that is part of Photosystem II, the electron is transferred to an acceptor molecule (primary acceptor), and then passes downhill to Photosystem I through a conveyor chain of electrons The P680 requires an electron that is taken from the water by breaking it into H + ions and O-2 ions. These O-2 ions combine to form O2 that is released into the atmosphere.

The light acts on the P700 molecule of Photosystem I, causing an electron to be raised to a higher potential. This electron is accepted by a primary acceptor (different from the one associated with Photosystem II).

The electron goes through a series of redox reactions again, and finally combines with NADP + and H + to form NADPH, a carrier of H needed in the independent phase of light.

Electron of photosystem II replaces the excited electron of the P700 molecule.

There is therefore a continuous flow of electrons (non-cyclic) from water to NADPH, which is used for carbon fixation.

Cyclic electron flow occurs in some eukaryotes and in photosynthetic bacteria. NADPH does not occur, only ATP. This also occurs when the cell requires additional ATP, or when there is no NADP + to reduce it to NADPH.

In Photosystem II, the "pumping" of H ions into the thylakoids (from the stroma of the chloroplast) and the conversion of ADP + P to ATP is motorized by an electron gradient established in the thylakoid membrane.

A bat hits a 0.150 kg baseball for
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

11.85 kg m/s

Explanation:

impulse = mass ( change in velocity )

              = mass ( final velocity - initial velocity )

               = 0.150 ( 32.0 - (-47.0))

                = 0.150 ( 32.0 +47.0)

                = 0.150 (79)

                = 11.85 kg m/s

Two trains travel toward each other on the same track, beginning 100 miles apart. One train travels at 40 miles per hour; the ot
Paladinen [302]

D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles

V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph

v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph

t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?

time taken by the two trains to collide is given as

t = D/(V + v)

t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h

v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph

d = distance traveled by the bird

distance traveled by the bird is given as

d = v' t

d = 90 x 1

d = 90 miles

What is the difference between flashing point, boiling point and melting point​
sp2606 [1]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Melting point</u> is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. It is the temperature at which a solid changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
  • <u>Boiling poin</u>t is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid into a gas.
  • <u>The flash point </u>of a flammable liquid or volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed.

What is the torque τa about axis a due to the force f⃗ ? express the torque about axis a at cartesian coordinates (0,0)?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

\tau_a = F a sin \theta

Explanation:

The torque of a force is given by:

\tau = F d sin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

F, the force

a, the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)

\theta, the angle between the direction of the force and a

Therefore, the torque is

\tau_a = F a sin \theta
