Biologists use ball-and-stick models to study complex molecules by representing atoms with balls and bonds with sticks. DNA is a

biological molecule that contains millions of atoms. What is a limitation of using a ball-and-stick model for DNA

One of the major limitations of using the ball and stick model for DNA, is that within a single double stranded segment of DNA, one would have to use many many balls to represent atoms that are present in the sugar phosphate backbone, along with all of the main atoms that compose the nitrogenous bases of DNA, we also cannot construct or show the helical form of DNA, by using balls and sticks as well.

1. A kangaroo hops 84 m to the east in 7 seconds.
DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance hopped  = 84m

Displacement  = 84m due east

Time  = 7s

Unknown:

Speed of kangaroo  = ?

Velocity of kangaroo  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

    Speed  = \frac{distance}{time }   = \frac{84}{7}  = 12m/s

  Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}   = \frac{84}{7}   = 12m/s due east

A space shuttle takes off from FL and circles Earth several times, finally landing in CA. While the shuttle is in flight, a phot
mixer [17]

Answer:

Both the astronauts and photographer have the same displacement

Explanation:

Displacement is the minimum distance between two point. The initial point of both the astronauts and the photographer was Florida and the final point was California. So, the minimum distance for both of the astronauts and the photographer would be the distance between Florida and California would be the same.

Hence, both the astronauts and photographer will have the same displacement.

Visible light falls into wavelength ranges of 400-700 nm, for which 1 m = 1 × 10 9 nm . The energy and wavelength of light are r
Paul [167]

Answer:

E = 3.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy of the photon can be given in terms of its wavelength by the use of the following formula:

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

c = speed of light = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s

λ =  wavelength of light = 560.6 nm = 5.606 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(6.626\ x\ 10^{-34}\ Js)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{5.606\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}\\

<u>E = 3.54 x 10⁻¹⁹ J</u>

All of the following are physical properties of hydrogen peroxide except it
tankabanditka [31]
The answer to this question is B, Reacts with sunlight.

The 2 main properties of substances are their physical properties and chemical properties. 
Physical properties are some observable/measurable characteristics, such as their color, mass, state, melting point, conductivity etc.

Meanwhile, for chemical properties, they're about how the substance reacts with other substances, such as metals react with acid to form hydrogen. And by the word "react", it means there's no way turn the reaction product back to the original substance without using chemical methods such as heating or electrolysis. 

Therefore, all the choices above are physical properties of hydrogen peroxide except for B, as it is the only choice that relates to the substance reacting to another substance.
