Answer:

PCR (polymerase chain reaction)

Explanation:

PCR was developed in 1983 by Kary B. Mullis, an American biochemist who won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1993 for this invention.

Is a technique used to make numerous copies (quickly and accurately) of a specific segment of DNA.

PCR enables investigators to obtain large quantities of DNA that are required for various experiments and procedures in medical diagnostics, molecular biology, forensic analysis, and even evolutionary biology.

As this makes possible  to amplified DNA from a wide range of sources, the technique has been applied to many fields.

Example: PCR is used to diagnose genetic disease and to detect low levels of viral infection.

At a given instant an object has an angular velocity. It also has an angular acceleration due to torques that are present. There
katen-ka-za [31]

a) Constant

b) Constant

Explanation:

a)

We can answer this question by using the equivalent of Newton's second law of motion of rotational motion, which can be written as:

\tau_{net} = I \alpha (1)

where

\tau_{net} is the net torque acting on the object in rotation

I is the moment of inertia of the object

\alpha is the angular acceleration

The angular acceleration is the rate of change of the angular velocity, so it can be written as

\alpha = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta \omega is the change in angular velocity

\Delta t is the time interval

So we can rewrite eq.(1) as

\tau_{net}=I\frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

In this problem, we are told that at a given instant, the object has an angular acceleration due to the presence of torques, so there is a non-zero change in angular velocity.

Then, additional torques are applied, so that the net torque suddenly equal to zero, so:

\tau_{net}=0

From the previous equation, this implies that

\Delta \omega =0

Which means that the angular velocity at that instant does not change anymore.

b)

In this second case instead, all the torques are suddenly removed.

This also means that the net torque becomes zero as well:

\tau_{net}=0

Therefore, this means that

\Delta \omega =0

So also in this case, there is no change in angular velocity: this means that the angular velocity of the object will remain constant.

So cases (a) and (b) are basically the same situation, as the net torque is zero in both cases, so the object acts in the same way.

A stone is thrown horizontally at 60.0 m/sm/s from the top of a very tall cliff. Calculate its horizontal position and vertical
svp [43]

Answer:

X-Positions:                                         Y-Positions

x(0) = 0                                                   y(0) = 0

x(2) = 120 m                                           y(2) = 19.6 m

x(4) = 240 m                                          y(4) = 78.4 m

x(6) = 360 m                                          y(6) = 176.4 m

x(8) = 480 m                                          y(8) = 313 m

x(10) = 600m                                         y (10) = 490 m

Explanation:

X-Positions

  • First, we choose to take the horizontal direction as our x-axis, and the positive x-axis as positive.
  • After being thrown, in the horizontal direction, no external influence acts on the stone, so it will continue in the same direction at the same initial speed of 60. 0 m/s
  • So, in order to know the horizontal position at any time t, we can apply the definition of average velocity, rearranging terms, as follows:

       x = v_{ox} * t = 60.0 m/s * t(s)

  • It can be seen that after 2 s, the displacement will be 120 m, and each 2 seconds, as the speed is constant, the displacement will increase in the same 120 m each time.

Y-Positions

  • We choose to take the vertical direction as our y-axis, taking the downward direction as our positive axis.
  • As both axes are  perpendicular each other, both movements are independent each other also, so, in the vertical direction, the stone starts from rest.
  • At any moment, it is subject to the acceleration of gravity, g.
  • As the acceleration is constant, we can find the vertical displacement (taking the  height of the cliff as the initial reference level), using the following kinematic equation:

       y = \frac{1}{2} * g* t^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 m/s2 * t(s)^{2}

  • Replacing by the values of t, we get the following vertical positions, from the height of the cliff as y = 0:
  • y(2) = 2* 9.8 m/s2 = 19.6 m
  • y(4) = 8* 9.8 m/s2 = 78.4 m
  • y(6) = 18*9.8 m/s2 = 176.4 m
  • y(8) = 32*9.8 m/s2 = 313.6 m
  • y(10)= 50 * 9.8 m/s2 = 490.0 m

This force will cause the path of the particle to curve. Therefore, at a later time, the direction of the force will ___________
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

have a component along the direction of motion that remains perpendicular to the direction of motion

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to enter which sentence is correct, let's start by writing Newton's second law.

circular movement

          F = m a

          a = v² / r

          F = m v²/R

where the force is perpendicular to the velocity, all the force is used to change the direction of the velocity

in linear motion

         F = m a

where the force is parallel to the acceleration of the body, the total force is used to change the modulus of the velocity

the correct answer is: have a component along the direction of motion that remains perpendicular to the direction of motion

Suppose two point charges, Q1 = -6.25 x 10-9 C and Q2 = -6.25 x 10-9 C, are separated by a distance d = 0.617 m.
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A) F =  9.23 x 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

Data

q₁ = -6.25 x 10⁻⁹ C

q₂ = -6.25 x 10⁻⁹ C

d = 0.617 m

k = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = ?

Formula

              F = k q₁q₂ /r²

-Substitution

              F = (9 x 10⁹)(-6.25 x 10⁻⁹)(-6.25 x 10⁻⁹) / (0.617)²

-Simplification

              F = 3.512 x 10⁻⁷ / 0.381

-Result

              F = 9.227 x 10⁻⁷ N  ≈ 9.23 x 10⁻⁷ N
