<span>Viruses are regarded as being on the borderline of living and non-living because it exhibits characteristics of both living and non-living organisms. Inside a host, the virus can act as a living organism using the host's cellular system while outside the host, the virus crystallizes that makes them incapable of conducting metabolic activities. </span>
Can you give all of the characteristics of the atom carbon?
Answer is at the very end
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the asteroid = 10 x 10⁹kg
Distance between the asteroid = 850km
Unknown:
Force = ?
Solution:
We can predict the outcome of this reduction in distance between the two masses using the newton's law of universal gravitation.
The law states that "the gravitational force of attraction between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".
Mathematically, we have;
F =
F is the gravitational force
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹Nm²kg⁻²
m is the mass of the body
r is the distance between them.
From this, we know that as the separation increases, the force of gravitation will reduce since the mass is constant.
The distance between the two asteroids decreased from 1000km to 850km, this will increase the force of attraction between them and we expect the force to be higher than 6700N.
At 1000Km, force = 6700N,
since as the distance reduces the force increases, we expect the force to be about 9200N.
Let us verify this by plugging the values into the equation:
F =
F = 9200N
Answer: C. meiosis produces sex cells that are joined during sexual reproduction to produce offspring
Explanation:
Meiosis is also called as reduction division in this the parent diploid cell divides twice to produce four haploid daughter cells. The daughter cells so produce after cell division contain half the number of chromosomes then that of the parent cells. The germ cells in males and females divide twice or meiotic division occurs in them twice to produce four daughter haploid gamete cells that are sperms (male) and ovum (oocyte) (female). These male and female gametes fuse during sexual reproduction. The sperm fertilizes an ovum to produce zygote.
