Some bacteria are propelled by motors that spin hair-like flagella. A typical bacterial motor turning at a constant angular velo

city has a radius of 1.3 x10-8m, and a tangential speed at the rim of 2.1 x10-5 m/s. (a) What is the angular speed (the magnitude of the angular velocity) of this bacterial motor? (b) How long does it take the motor to make one revolution?

Answer :

(a) The angular speed of this bacterial motor is 1.6\times 10^3s^{-1}

(b) The time taken by the motor to make one revolution is 3.9\times 10^{-3}s

Explanation :

(a) To determine the angular speed of this bacterial motor.

Angular speed : It is defined as the rate at which an object changes its angle.

Formula used :

\omega=\frac{v}{r}

where,

\omega = angular speed

v = tangential speed = 2.1\times 10^{-5}m/s

r = radius = 1.3\times 10^{-8}m

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\omega=\frac{2.1\times 10^{-5}m/s}{1.3\times 10^{-8}m}

\omega=1.6\times 10^3s^{-1}

Thus, the angular speed of this bacterial motor is 1.6\times 10^3s^{-1}

(b) to determine the time taken by the motor to make one revolution.

Formula used :

T=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}

where,

T = time

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

T=\frac{2\times 3.14}{1.6\times 10^3s^{-1}}

T=3.9\times 10^{-3}s

Thus, the time taken by the motor to make one revolution is 3.9\times 10^{-3}s

What is cell biology​
Anna [14]

Answer:

Cell biology (also cellular biology or cytology) is a branch of biology that studies the structure, function and behavior of cells. Cell biology encompasses both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and can be divided into many sub-topics which may include the study of cell metabolism, cell communication, cell cycle, biochemistry, and cell composition. The study of cells is performed using several techniques such as cell culture, various types of microscopy, and cell fractionation. These have allowed for and are currently being used for discoveries and research pertaining to how cells function, ultimately giving insight into understanding larger organisms. Knowing the components of cells and how cells work is fundamental to all biological sciences while also being essential for research in biomedical fields such as cancer, and other diseases. Research in cell biology is interconnected to other fields such as genetics, molecular genetics, biochemistry, molecular biology, medical microbiology, immunology, and cytochemistry.
