Lady_Fox [76]

DNA sequencing is the technique which allows multiple peoples DNA to be compared to look for similarities and differences in order to solve crime and is denoted as option C.

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

This is referred to as the deoxyribonucleic acid and contains the genetic components of organisms and is also located in the nucleus. On the other hand, DNA sequencing refers to the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence.

Each organisms has a unique DNA sequence which is why it is used to identify individuals through the use of bodily fluids such as saliva, blood etc.

It is used to compare the similarities and differences in order to solve crime thereby making it the most appropriate choice.

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 62.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

slava [35]

Answer:

69.68 N

Explanation:

Work done is equal to change in kinetic energy

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

W = $F_{total} .d$

where m = mass of the sprinter

vf = final velocity

vi = initial velocity

W = workdone

kf = final kinetic energy

ki = initial kinetic energy

d = distance traveled

Ftotal = total force

vf = 8m/s

vi= 2m/s

d = 25m

m = 60kg

inserting parameters to get:

W = ΔK = Kf - Ki = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} .d =\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}$

$F_{total} = \frac{\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{f} - \frac{1}{2} mv^{2} _{i}}{d}$

$F_{total=} \frac{\frac{1}{2} X 62 X6^{2} -\frac{1}{2} X 62 X2^{2} }{25}$

= 39.7

we know that the force the sprinter exerted F sprinter, the force of the headwind Fwind = 30N

$F_{sprinter} = F_{total} + F_{wind} = 39.7 + 30 = 69.68 N$
