Question 2: In 2-4 sentences, explain what would happen to the cell if the nucleus didn’t work?

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Then the cell won't be able to function properly. With no nucleus the cell will lose control. It won't know what to do and there will be no cell division.

andre [41]

Answer:

$d=1.84\ mm$

Explanation:

Capacitance

A two parallel-plate capacitor has a capacitance of

$\displaystyle C=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{d}$

where

$\epsilon_o=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}\ F/m$

A = area of the plates = $\pi r^2$

d = separation of the plates

$\displaystyle d=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{C}=\frac{\epsilon_o \pi r^2}{C}$

We need to compute C. We'll use the circuit parameters for that. The reactance of a capacitor is given by

$\displaystyle X_c=\frac{1}{wC}$

where w is the angular frequency

$w=2\pi f=2\pi \cdot 36000=226194.67\ rad/s$

Solving for C

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{wX_c}$

The reactance can be found knowing the total impedance of the circuit:

$Z^2=R^2+X_c^2$

Where R is the resistance, $R=15 K\Omega=15000\Omega$ . Solving for Xc

$X_c^2=Z^2-R^2$

The magnitude of the impedance is computed as the ratio of the rms voltage and rms current

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{V}{I}$

The rms current is the peak current Ip divided by $\sqrt{2}$ , thus

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}$

$I_p=0.65\ mA/1000=0.00065\ A$

Now collect formulas

$\displaystyle X_c^2=Z^2-R^2=\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}\right)^2-R^2$

Or, equivalently

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2V^2}{I_p^2}-R^2}$

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 18^2}{0.00065^2}-15000^2}$

$X_c=36176.34\ \Omega$

The capacitance is now

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{226194.67\cdot 36176.34}=1.22\cdot 10^{-10}\ F$

The radius of the plates is

$r=18\ cm/2=9 \ cm = 0.09 \ m$

The separation between the plates is

$\displaystyle d=\frac{8.85\cdot 10^{-12} \cdot \pi\cdot 0.09^2}{1.22\cdot 10^{-10}}$

$d=0.00184\ m$

$\boxed{d=1.84\ mm}$

A block of mass 4 kilograms is initially moving at 5m/s on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the block and the sur

emmasim [6.3K]

• Net vertical force on the block:

∑ F = n - w = 0

(n = magnitude of normal force, w = weight)

n = w = m g

(m = mass, g = 9.8 m/s²)

n = (4 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N

• Net horizontal force:

∑ F = -f = m a

(f = mag. of friction, a = acceleration)

We have f = µ n = 0.5 (39.2 N) = 19.6 N, so

-19.6 N = (4 kg) a

a = -4.9 m/s²

With this acceleration, the block comes to a rest from an initial speed of 5 m/s, so that it travels a distance ∆x in this time such that

0² - (5 m/s)² = 2 (-4.9 m/s²) ∆x

∆x = (25 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²) ≈ 2.55 m ≈ 2.6 m
