The four classes of polymers are:

1. Nucleic acids. Examples are DNA and RNA

2. Protein. Examples are enzymes and hemoglobin

3. Carbohydrates. Examples as starch and glycogen

4. Lipids. Examples are triglycerides and phospholipids

The building blocks of nucleic acids are called bases and there are four types known as Guanine, Adenine, Thymine and Cytosine.

The building blocks of carbohydrates are glucose molecules.

The building blocks of protein are amino acids.

The building blocks of lipids are a combination of fatty acids and glycerol.

A pen cap floats in a plastic lemonade 3/4 full of water vif you squeeze the bottle the pen cap sinks to the bottom if you then

elena-s [515]

Answer:

The pressure of the air molecules inside the pen cap increases and the volume occupied by the air decreases such that the combined volume occupied by the pen cap and the air volume reduces while the combined mass of the pen cap and the air molecules remain the same

Given that density = The mass/Volume, we have that the density varies inversely as the volume, and as the volume reduces, the density increases

Upon squeezing, therefore, as the new combined density of the pen cap and the air molecules rises to more than the density of the water in the bottle, then, the pen cap air molecule is relatively more denser than the water, which will result in the pen cap sinking to the bottom of the bottle

que 2. Why do we keep frequency constant instead of keeping vibrating length constam second law of vibrating string?

ella [17]

Answer:

The second law of a vibrating string states that for a transverse vibration in a stretched string, the frequency is directly proportional to the square root of the string's tension, when the vibrating string's mass per unit length and the vibrating length are kept constant

The law can be expressed mathematically as follows;

$f = \dfrac{1}{2\cdot l} \cdot \sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m} }$

The second law of the vibrating string can be verified directly, however, the third law of the vibrating string states that frequency is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass per unit length cannot be directly verified due to the lack of continuous variation in both the frequency, 'f', and the mass, 'm', simultaneously

Therefore, the law is verified indirectly, by rearranging the above equation as follows;

$m = \dfrac{1}{ l^2} \cdot \dfrac{T}{4\cdot f^2} }$

From which it can be shown that the following relation holds with the limits of error in the experiment

m₁·l₁² = m₂·l₂² = m₃·l₃² = m₄·l₄² = m₅·l₅²
