When carrying extra weight, the space formed between the top of your head and the two axles of the motorcycle is referred to as
Dafna11 [192]
When carrying extra weight, the space formed between the top of your head and the two axles of the motorcycle is called "load triangle". Because of a motorcycle's size and weight<span> and the fact that it has only two wheels, how to carry extra load is very important. One has to make sure that they are keeping the weight low and close to the middle of the motorcycle and keep the load evenly from side to side. Heavier items should be in the "load triangle".</span><span> </span>

Large numbers of ribosomes are present in cells that specialize in producing which molecules?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Protein molecules

Explanation:

Ribosomes are the cell organelles that are responsible for the synthesis of protein in the cell. Proteins are the fundamental building blocks and help in repair and damage of cell in the body.

Ribosome is a complex which is made up of protein and RNA. Ribosomes can be found floating within the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

An alpha particle (charge +2e) travels in a circular path of radius .5m in a magnetic field of 1.0 T. Find the (a) period, (b) s
navik [9.2K]

Given Information:

Radius = r = 0.5 m

Magnetic field = 1.0 T

Required Information:

Period = T = ?

Speed = v = ?

Kinetic energy = KE = ?

Answer:

Period = 0.13x10⁻⁶ seconds

speed = 24.16x10⁶ m/s

Kinetic energy = 12.11 MeV

Explanation:

(a) period

The time period of alpha particle is related to its orbital speed as

T = 2πr/v  eq. 1

According to newton's law

F = ma

Force due to magnetic field is given by

F = qvB

qvB = ma

qvB = m(v²/r)

qB = mv/r

v = qBr/m  eq. 2

substitute the eq. 2 in eq. 1

T = 2πr/qBr/m

r cancels out

T = 2π/qB/m

T = 2πm/qB

T = 2π*6.65x10⁻²⁷/2*1.602x10⁻¹⁹*1

T = 0.13x10⁻⁶ seconds

(b) speed

From equation 1

T = 2πr/v

v = 2πr/T

v = 2π*0.5/0.13x10⁻⁶

v = 24.16x10⁶ m/s

(c) kinetic energy (in electron volts)

Kinetic energy is given by

KE = 0.5mv²

KE = 0.5*6.65x10⁻²⁷*(24.16x10⁶)²

KE = 1.94x10⁻¹² J

since 1 electron volt has 1.602x10⁻¹⁹ J

KE = 1.94x10⁻¹²/1.602x10⁻¹⁹

KE = 12.11 MeV

What amount of energy is needed for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J

Explanation:

We need to find the energy for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4.

The energy in transition from 1 state to another is given by :

E=\dfrac{-2.18\times 10^{-18}}{n^2}\ J

The difference in energy for n = 1 to n = 4 is:

E=-2.18\times 10^{-18}\times (\dfrac{1}{4^2}-1)\\\\E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J

So, the required energy is equal to 2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J.
