Answer: Hello there!

First, sound waves can propagate in any material, so options b and d can be discarded.

Sound waves propagate in spherical waves from the source, not in a perpendicular way, so this discards the option c.

Now, "sound waves have regions of compressions and refractions" is the right answer, these regions of compression and refraction are regions where the pressure changes, which is the thing that explains why sound waves are pressure waves.

specific heat capacity of copper(c)=0.39J*g°c

Mass(m)=20grams

Quantity of heat(Q)=100joules

Temperature rise(@)=?

@=Q/(mxc)

@=100/(20x0.39)

@=100/7.8

Given that the concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase is 3.3 pmol ⋅ L − 1 and R max ( V max ) = 222 μmol ⋅ L − 1 ⋅ s − 1 , d

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1.

Explanation:

Given:

The concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase = total enzyme concentration = Et = 3.3 pmol⋅L^–1 = 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1

The maximum rate of reaction = Rmax (Vmax) = 222 μmol⋅L^–1⋅s^–1 = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1

The formula for the turnover number of an enzyme (kcat, or catalytic rate constant) = Rmax ÷ Et = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1 ÷ 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1 = 67,272,727.27 s^–1

Therefore, the turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1

4. Calculate the kinetic energy of a 4.7 kg object moving at a speed of 7 m/s. SHOW YOUR WORK

SashulF [63]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 115.15 \ J}}$

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to motion. It is calculated with the following formula.

$E_K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

The mass of the object is 4.7 kilograms. The velocity of the object is 7 meters per second.

m= 4.7 kg
v= 7 m/s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$E_K= \frac{1}{2} (4.7 \ kg)(7 \ m/s)^2$

Solve the exponent.

(7 m/s)²= 7 m/s * 7 m/s = 49 m²/s²

$E_K= \frac{1}{2} (4.7 \ kg)(49 \ m^2/s^2)$

Multiply the numbers together.

$E_K = 2.35 \ kg * 49 \ m^2/s^2$

$E_K= 115.15 \ kg*m^2/s^2$

Convert the units. 1 kilogram square meter per square second is equal to 1 Joule.

$E_K= 115.15 \ J$

The object has <u>115.15 Joules</u> of kinetic energy.

A screw incorporates which other simple machine?

Radda [10]

Answer:

Inclined plane.

Explanation:

Geometrically, a screw is a narrow inclined plane that is wrapped around a cylinder. Like the other simple machines a screw can amplify force; a small rotational force (torque) on the shaft can exert a large axial force on a load.

A screw is a cylinder with a head (solid top) at one end and a pointed tip (like a nail) at the other end.

The mechanical advantage of the screw depends on the space between the threads and the length (and thickness) of the screw. The closer the threads are, the greater the mechanical advantage. It is easier to drive a screw into an object if the thread spacing is smaller.

The Earth’s surface is not made of

[/caption]Most of the Earth surface, about 70%, is covered with water. The remaining 30% is made up of the seven continental landmasses. Underneath the water that fills the oceans, and the dirt and plants that cover the continents, the Earth's surface layer is made of rock.

Hope this helps!
