For resistors in series in a DC circuit, the potential difference is proportional to the resistance.

The voltage V across the 7.1 ohm resistor can be found from the proportion
   V/7.1 = 12/4.8
   V = 7.1*12/4.8 = 17.75

The potential difference at the battery terminals is the sum of the potential differences across the two series resistors.
   Vbatt = 17.75 V + 12 V
   Vbatt = 29.75 V

How is a flywheel constructed to maximize its rotational inertia?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

It is constructed with a high mass and a high raidus.

Explanation:

The rotational inertia I for every object is calculated as:

cMR^2 = I

where c is a constant, M is the mass of the object and R the radius of the object.

So, for a flywheel, the rotational inertia is calculated as:

I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2

Then, for constructed a flywheel with the maximun rotational inertia we have to set the maximum mass and the maximun radius.

Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to separate nucleic acids by their _______.
ss7ja [257]
<h2>Answer: size</h2>

Gel electrophoresis is called to the  technique used by scientists for analytical purposes, in life sciences laboratories to separate macromolecules (DNA, RNA, and proteins from various sources).

The process consists of separating the molecules according to their <u>size</u> and <u>electric charge</u>. This is done with a gel (a gelatinous substance extracted from seaweed, called <em>agarose</em>) of controllable porosity placed in an ionic buffer environment. This is how the gel acts as a molecular sieve that separates larger molecules from the smaller ones, because each molecule has different size and charge and will move through the gel at different speeds.

That is, the smaller molecules move more quickly through the gel while the larger ones are left behind.
