Titin is a spring-shaped elastic protein that attaches to the thick filament and anchors it to the Z-discs of a sarcomere. If ti

tan was denatured, making it straight, it would no longer be able to: a. hold the thick filament in place. b. recoil when stretched and uncoil when the force is removed. c. contract the sarcomere. d. uncoil when stretched and recoil when the force is removed.

Answer:

a. hold the thick filament in place.

Explanation:

Titin is the third most abundant protein in skeletal muscle (after actin and myosin), this protein has a highly elastic potential, and is therefore the protein most responsible for muscle elasticity.

Each titin molecule connects a Z line to the M line of a sarcomere, thus helping to stabilize the position of the thick filament.

So, titin denaturation may result in an inability to hold the thick filament in place.

A 15-lb block B starts from rest and slides on the 25-lb wedge A, which is supported by a horizontal surface. Neglecting frictio
xxTIMURxx [149]

The angle of the wedge is 30°.

Answer:

5.88 ft/s

Explanation:

a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.

initial velocity u= 0

final velocity, v

acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²

Sliding displacement, s = 3ft

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values and solve for v

v^2-0 = 2\times 16 \times 3 =96 ft^2/s^2\\v = 9.8 ft/s

b) Use conservation of momentum:

Initial momentum of the system  = 0

final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')

v' = 5.88 ft/s

A submarine is 2.84 102 m horizontally from shore and 1.00 102 m beneath the surface of the water. A laser beam is sent from the
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

468 m

Explanation:

So the building and the point where the laser hit the water surface make a right triangle. Let's call this triangle ABC where A is at the base of the building, B is at the top of the building, and C is where the laser hits the water surface. Similarly, the submarine, the projected submarine on the surface and the point where the laser hit the surface makes a another right triangle CDE. Let D be the submarine and E is the other point.

The length CE is length AE - length AC = 284 - 234 = 50 m

We can calculate the angle ECD:

tan(\hat{ECD}) = \frac{ED}{EC} = \frac{100}{50} = 2

\hat{ECD} = tan^{-1} 2 = 63.43^o

This is also the angle ACB, so we can find the length AB:

tan(\hat{ACB}) = \frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{AB}{234}

2 = \frac{AB}{234}

AB = 2*234 = 468 m

So the height of the building is 468m

What is the direction of the force for a negative charge moving downward in a magnetic field pointing to the left?
velikii [3]

Answer: A

Out of the screen

Explanation:

Using right hand rule, the magnetic force is perpendicular to the plane form by the magnetic field of a charged particle and its speed. Which will be into the screen.

But the negative charged particle moves in the opposite direction of the positive charged particle. Therefore, the magnetic force direction will be out of the screen
