Of the important biological molecules only the non-polar lipids (fats and oils) and large polymers (e.g. polysaccharides, large proteins and DNA) do not dissolve. The water acts as a solvent for chemical reactions and also helps transport dissolved

castortr0y [4]

The speed of light is: c = 3x10^8 m/s <span>

or 

c = 186,000,000 miles/sec = 1.86x10^8 mi/s 

1 furlong = 0.125 mile 

1 fortnight = 2 weeks(7d/wk)(24h/d)(3600s/h) 
= 1209600s = 1.2096x10^6 s 

Therefore, 

c =1.86x10^8 mi/s(1furl/0.125mi)(1.2096x10^6s/fort) 

<span>c = 18x10^14 furlong/fortnight = 18x10^8 Mfurlong/fortnight</span></span>

Four point charges of magnitudes +3q, -q, +2q, and -4q are arranged in the corners of a square of side length L. The charge -q c
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

d) 0 V

Explanation:

It can be showed that the potential due to a point charge q, to a distance d from the charge, can be expressed as follows:

V = \frac{k*q}{r}

where k = \frac{1}{4*\pi*\epsilon0} = 9e9 N*m2/C2

As the potential is an scalar, and is linear with the charge, we can apply the superposition principle, which means that we can find the potential due to one of the charges, as if the other were not present.

By symmetry, all four charges are at the same distance from the center, so we can write the total potential, as follows:

V = \frac{k}{d} ( q1 + q2 + q3 + q4) (1)

where d, is the semi-diagonal of the square, that we can find applying Pythagorean theorem, as follows:

d = \sqrt{\frac{L^{2}}{4} + \frac{L^{2}}{4} } = L*\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

Replacing by the values in (1) we have:

V = \frac{9e9N*m2/C2}{\frac{L}{2}*\sqrt{2} }* ( +3q -q + 2q + -4q)  = 0 V

which is equal to the option d).

Which law best describes why the planets are pulled toward the Sun and orbit it? Newton's law of universal gravitation Kepler's
mamaluj [8]
Newton's universal law of gravitation says that the force acting upon (and therefore the acceleration of) an object toward Earth should be inversely proportional to the square of its distance from the center of Earth.
