In a cell, protein synthesis is the primary function of the ribosomes, found in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

A Ribosome is a cell organelle that makes protein. The location of the ribosome in a cell determine the kind of protein it makes. If the ribosome is attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, the proteins made are utilized both within and outside the cell. If the ribosome is in the cytoplasm, floating freely, then the kind of protein made will be utilized within the cell only.

The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus and density related to velocity of sound

$v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}$

by rearranging the equation we can say

$B = \rho * v^2$

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

$B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2$

so SI unit will be

$B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}$

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus

A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 37 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splas

Alchen [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a). 16.741 m/s

(b). 15.75 m/s

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Height of the cliff, h = 37 m

Time taken to reach the sound to us = 2.92 s

Speed of the sound in air at room temperature = 343 m/s

Now,

Let us say the speed of the ball = u m/s

So,

Time taken by the ball to reach at the bottom, t is given by,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 37}{9.8}}\\t=2.747\,s$

So,

Splash is heard after = 2.92 s

So,

Time taken by sound to travel the shortest distance along the hypotenuse of the triangle thus formed is,

t = 2.92 - 2.747

t = 0.172 s

Now,

Distance traveled by sound is given by,

$Distance=343\times 0.172\\Distance=59.02\,m$

So,

In the triangle using the Pythagoras Theorem,

Horizontal distance traveled is,

$D=\sqrt{59.02^{2}-37^{2}}\\D=45.99\,m$

So,

Speed of throwing of ball is given by,

$Distance=Speed\times Time\\45.99=u\times 2.747\\u=16.741\,m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the ball = 16.741 m/s.

(b).

If,

Speed of sound = 331 m/s

So,

Distance traveled by sound is,

$Distance=331\times 0.172\\Distance=56.932\,m$

So,

Distance traveled in the horizontal by ball is,

$Distance=\sqrt{56.932^{2}-37^{2}}\\Distance=43.269\,m$

So,

Speed of the ball thrown is given by,

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Speed=\frac{43.269}{2.747}\\Speed=15.75\,m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the ball = 15.75 m/s.

The work function for tungsten metal is 4.52eV a. What is the cutoff (threshold) wavelength for tungsten? b. What is the maximum

Tanya [424]

Answer: a) 274.34 nm; b) 1.74 eV c) 1.74 V

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to consider the energy balance for the photoelectric effect on tungsten:

h*ν = Ek+W ; where h is the Planck constant, ek the kinetic energy of electrons and W the work funcion of the metal catode.

In order to calculate the cutoff wavelength we have to consider that Ek=0

in this case h*ν=W

(h*c)/λ=4.52 eV

λ= (h*c)/4.52 eV

λ= (1240 eV*nm)/(4.52 eV)=274.34 nm

From this h*ν = Ek+W; we can calculate the kinetic energy for a radiation wavelength of 198 nm

then we have

(h*c)/(λ)-W= Ek

Ek=(1240 eV*nm)/(198 nm)-4.52 eV=1.74 eV

Finally, if we want to stop these electrons we have to applied a stop potental equal to 1.74 V . At this potential the photo-current drop to zero. This potential is lower to the catode, so this acts to slow down the ejected electrons from the catode.
