3. Explain the relationship between power, energy and time.

1 answer:

7 0

There is a very simple relationship between the three. First off, power is the amount of energy used over a certain amount of time. Energy is the capacity of carrying out that power. Lastly, time depends on how much energy you have to exert the work.

Hope this helps :)

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Explanation: In the previous section we listed four characteristics of radioactivity and nuclear decay that form the basis for the use of radioisotopes in the health and biological sciences. A fifth characteristic of nuclear reactions is that they release enormous amounts of energy. The first nuclear reactor to achieve controlled nuclear disintegration was built in the early 1940s by Enrico Fermi and his colleagues at the University of Chicago. Since that time, a great deal of effort and expense has gone into developing nuclear reactors as a source of energy. The nuclear reactions presently used or studied by the nuclear power industry fall into two categories: fission reactions and fusion reactions

Question: In experiment your teacher has provided you with a sample of sandy, salty, ocean water and

liq [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

Homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture are in the same proportion throughout any sample extracted from the mixture while an heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture differ in term of proportion when different samples of the mixture are extracted and compared.

For example, a sandy water will have some parts (usually the bottom) of the mixture with more sand than other parts of the mixture, hence, it (sandy water) is a heterogeneous mixture. While salty and ocean water has it's salt dissolved in the same proportion throughout the water in the mixture, hence salty and/or ocean water is a homogeneous mixture.

Sandy water can be separated by filtration (i.e using a filter paper to separate the sand from the water when the mixture is poured over a filter paper) while salty and ocean water can be separated by distillation (i.e boiling of the mixture so the water molecules can boil and move through a tube as gas or steam into another container where they are cooled and converted back to liquid or water while leaving the solid salt component of the mixture in the boiling tube).

The Gulf Stream is an example of a(n) ____________ current.

lorasvet [3.4K]

It's a surface current because it's driven by the winds near the equator.

Explanation:
The Gulf stream System is one of the world's most intensely studied current systems. The Gulf stream begins upstream of the promontory, wherever the Sunshine State Current ceases to follow the seabed. The position of the Stream because it leaves the coast changes throughout the year. within the fall, it shifts north, whereas within the winter and early spring it shifts south.

The specific spatial arrangement of amino acid residues that are close to each other in the polypeptide chain is called______the

natulia [17]

Answer:

c. tertiary.

Explanation:

In this case, we can review the definition of each level of structuration in the proteins:

Primary structure

In the primary structure, the amino acids are linked by peptide bonds. That is, the order of the amino acids is the criterion that defines this type of structure.

Secondary structure

In the secondary structure, we have to look at the way in which the protein is folded. The options are:

-) Beta-laminar: A structure in which the protein has a planar shape.

-) Alpha-helix: A structure in which the protein has a cross-strand form.

Tertiary structure

In the tertiary structure, the R groups that the amino acids have in the primary structure can generate interactions with each other. Interactions such as hydrogen bridges, dipole-dipole, hydrophobic interactions. This makes the protein have a very specific three-dimensional structure, on which its function depends.

Quaternary structure

In the quaternary structure, several subunits may be attached, or there may be prostatic groups (metals that can help to attach various protein units).

With all these in mind, the deffinition that fits with the description in the question is the tertiary structure.

I hope it helps!
