Answer:

100nm-280nm

Explanation:

Ultraviolet rays (UV) are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It goes from 10nm to 400nm wavelengths, they are shorter than visible light, thus it's impossible to see by a human eye, and larger than X-rays (used in many medical applications and harmful when long-exposed).

According to its wavelengths, UV can be divided in different types:

UVA: long wave UV (315nm-400nm)

UVB: medium-wave UV (280nm-315nm)

UVC: short wave UV (100nm-280nm)

Therefore, UVC comprises wavelengths between 10nm and 280nm.

12345 [234]

Answer:B) The binding site with a kid of7.9uM is the low affinity site.

Explanation:

The rate at which macro molecules like protein bind together is called affinity. The higher the affinity site the more readily these macro molecules fuses together. 7.9uM is a low affinity value than 359uM.

Place the left charge at the 2 cm position and the right one at the 4 cm position. Vary the left and right charge to the values
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force between two charges can be expressed as follows

F = k q₁ q₂ / d²

q₁ and q₂ are two charges , d is distance between them , k is a constant whose value is 9 x 10⁹

distance between charges is fixed which is 4 -2 = 2 cm = 2 x 10⁻² m

force between 1μC and  4μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 4 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 4μC and  1μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 4 x 1 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 2μC and  2μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 2 x 2 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 9 x 10 = 90 N

force between 1μC and  2μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 2 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 4.5 x 10 = 45 N

force between 1μC and  8μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 8 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 18 x 10 = 180 N

force between 2μC and  8μC

= 9 x 10⁹ x 1 x 8 x 10⁻¹² / ( 2 x 10⁻² )²

= 36 x 10 = 360 N

Left Charge   Right Charge Resulting force(N)

1μC                     4μC                  90 N

4μC                   1μC                    90 N

2μC                  2μC                    90 N

1μC                    2μC                   45 N

1μC                  8μC                    180 N

2μC                  8μC                  360 N

A 46.0-kg box is being pushed a distance of 8.80 m across the floor by a force P whose magnitude is 171 N. The force P is parall
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

a) 1504.8 J

b) 991.76 J

c) 0J

d) 0J

Explanation:

(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

W_P=Px

P: applied force = 171N

x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m

you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

W_P=(171N)(8.80m)=1504.8J

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

W_f=F_fx=\mu N x=\mu Mg x

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250

M: mass of the box = 46.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

W_f=(0.250)(46.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(8.80m)=991.76J

(c) The Normal force is

N=Mg=(46.0kg)(9,8m/s^2)=450.8N

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

W_N=0J

(d) the same as before:

W_g=0J
