Okay, so this is physics. What is the meaning of KE? It's Kinetic Energy. What is the meaning of GPE? It's Gravitational Potential Energy. So how do you calculate either, and what are their significances? Kinetic -> motion, Gravitational potential energy -> energy that can be used to do work due to gravity. So is the bowling ball moving, or is it someplace it can fall from, or both?

Kinetic energy is calculated as 1/2 * mv^2, where m is the mass of the object, and v is the velocity. Potential energy for conservative forces is the product of the force and the distance over which it can do work. Thus in the case of GPE, it is the weight multiplied by the height, as gravity is a conservative force. What is the weight? It's not equal to the mass.

Hopefully these hints will get you thinking.

I'm having trouble answering a question on my biology homework. Explain why the following structural formula is not correct base
Ratling [72]
I'd say that it is incorrect because each carbon atom should bond 4 times and all three carbon atoms in this structural formula only bond once. The reverse is true for hydrogen atoms. They only form one bond but in this structural formula two of them have four bonds. I don't know about nitrogen though.

What are the basic building blocks of DNA and RNA
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

A nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids.

Explanation:

RNA and DNA are polymers made of long chains of nucleotides. A nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) attached to a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base.

Hope this helps even though it was yesterday :)
