Answer:

The mechanical energy of a pendulum is the sum of two types of energy:

- The kinetic energy (KE), which is the energy associated to the motion of the pendulum, and which is given by

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m is the mass of the pendulum and v its speed;

- The potential energy (PE), which is the energy associated to the position of the pendulum, and which is given by

PE=mgh

where g is the acceleration due to gravity and h the height of the pendulum, relative to its equilibrium position

The mechanical energy is the sum of these two values:

E = KE + PE

And neglecting air resistance, the pendulum is an isolated system, so the mechanical energy remains constant:

E=const.

This means that the energy continuously converts from kinetic energy and potential energy, and viceversa.

In particular, at the following moments we have:

i. the moment at which it completes one cycle, just before it begins to fall back towards the other end --> potential

In fact, in this position the speed is zero, so the kinetic energy is zero.

ii. the moment that it is in the middle between the two ends --> kinetic

In fact, in this position the height of the pendulum is zero, so the potential energy is zero.

iii. just before it reaches the end of one cycle (just before instant i --> kinetic and potential

In fact, here the pendulum has not reached yet its maximum height: so, it is still in motion, therefore it still has kinetic energy and potential energy.

Which linkages would you expect to find at a branch point in glycogen or amylopectin?
shusha [124]

Answer:

α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

The carbohydrates are the polymers made of the sugars and bonded together through the glycosisdic bonds. The monosaccharides are the simplest unit of the carbohydrates.

The glycogen and amylopectin share similar structural features. Both have α-1,4-glycosidic linkage in their linear structure. The branching has been introduced in the glycogen and amylopectin structure through the α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

Thus, the answer is α-1,6-glycosidic linkage.

How does the recessive sickle cell allele stay in the gene pool
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Even though the allele is recessive it is passed down from parent to child and if both parents have the recessive allele it is possible the child will have sickle cell as it is inherited.

The mitochondrial matrix has what charge compared with the intermembrane space?
Solnce55 [7]
The matrix (inside mito) has a negative charge compared to the intermembrane space (outside of mito but still inside) because positively charged protons are constantly pumped from the matrix to the intermembrane space. A cell oxidizes an organic molecule producing 3 NADH molecules and 3 FADH2 molecules..

Which example describe biotic and abiotic factors interacting with the environment? A a valley filling up with rain water b sunl
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a

Explanation:

Remember, a biotic factors are those that are living (having life in them), while the abiotic factors are not living organisms.

Oxygen is in the category of biotic and it interacts with the atmosphere (space) which is abiotic.
