Suppose your friend claims to have discovered a mysterious force in nature that acts on all particles in some region of space. H

e tells you that the force is always pointed away a definite point in space, which we can call the force center. The magnitude of the force turns out to be proportional to B/r3, where r is the distance from the force center to any other point. Your friend says that it has been determined that the constant of proportionality has been determined to be B= 2 (in units to be determined later), so that the magnitude of the force on a particle (in newtons) can be written as 2r^3, when the particle is at a distance r from the force center.

Answer:

             U = 1 / r²

Explanation:

In this exercise they do not ask for potential energy giving the expression of force, since these two quantities are related

             

         F = - dU / dr

this derivative is a gradient, that is, a directional derivative, so we must have

          dU = - F. dr

the esxresion for strength is

         F = B / r³

let's replace

          ∫ dU = - ∫ B / r³  dr

in this case the force and the displacement are parallel, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

let's evaluate the integrals

            U - Uo = -B (- / 2r² + 1 / 2r₀²)

To complete the calculation we must fix the energy at a point, in general the most common choice is to make the potential energy zero (Uo = 0) for when the distance is infinite (r = ∞)

             U = B / 2r²

we substitute the value of B = 2

             U = 1 / r²

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

3.0 x 10¹ Nm

Explanation:

Torque = F x r

Where F is force applied and r is perpendicular distance from pivot point . r

is also called lever arm

Here F = 15 N and r = 2.0 m

Torque

= 15 N X 2.0 m

= 3.0 10¹ Nm.

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

False: Quaternary structure is achieved when multiple polypeptide chains in protein come together.

Explanation:

There are four levels of protein structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and Quaternary structure.

Tertiary structure is a protein structure, which is achieved when a protein folds into a compact, three-dimensional shape stabilized by interactions between side-chain R groups of amino acids.

However, Quaternary structure is achieved when multiple polypeptide chains in protein come together.
