Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Causes mutations in DNA.

The signature mutation caused by ultraviolet light is a CC to TT mutation, caused when a CC dimer is mispaired with two adenine bases during replication. Because of these mutations, the connection between ultraviolet damage to DNA and cancer is quite clear.

A small asteroid with a mass of 1500 kg moves near the earth. At a particular instant the asteroid’s velocity is ⟨3.5 × 104, −1.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7 i - 2.24 x 10^{7 j) kgm/s

Explanation:

Due to earths gravity, force on asteroid is given by:

F= \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} } r^

Plugging in the values, we have

F= [(6.67x10^{-11})(1500)(5.97 x 10^{24})(8x10^{6}i + 9x10^{6 j)] / ((8x10^{6})² + (9x10^{6 )²)^{1.5}

F= 2736 i^ + 3078 j^

In order find the final momentum of the Asteroid, apply impulse momentum theorem

P_{f} = P_{i + FΔt

P_{f} = 1500(3.5 x 10^{4 i - 1.8x10^{4 j) + (2736i + 3078j)(1.5x10^{3)

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7  i- 2.24 x 10^{7 j)kgm/s

Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) An electric iron works on the heating effect of electric current

(b) The heating effect of an electric current is the tendency for electric current to cause the temperature of the material through which it is flowing to rise due to the resistance of the material

The heating effect, 'E', is given by the formula, E = I²·R·t

Where;

I = The current flowing

R = The resistance of the material

t = The time the material takes to heat up

(c) The values showed by Pinki here is the value of care, concern and prevention, to prevent the harmful effect of the high heat on the skin of her daughter

Please help! A net force of 2.0 N acts on a 2.0-kg object for 10 seconds. What is the object’s kinetic energy after that 10 seco
padilas [110]
For Newton's second law, the force F applied to the object of mass m will cause an acceleration a of the body:
F=ma
So, the acceleration is 
a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{2.0 N}{2.0 kg}=1 m/s^2

The object undergoes through this acceleration for 10 seconds, t=10 s. Since it is an accelerated motion, we can find its final velocity after 10 seconds:
v_f = v_i + at=0 m/s+(1m/s^2)(10 s)=10 m/s
where v_i is the initial velocity of the object, which is zero since it starts from rest.

Finally we can calculate the final kinetic energy of the object, which is given by
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(2.0 kg)(10 m/s)^2=100 J

Let’s say you pour an ounce of water from a class into a bowl. Does the water’s mass change?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

No. If you take 5$ from your wallet and place on the shelf, does it change its value - No. So if you take the water from class(does not matter how much) and pour all of it somewhere else, it doesn't change its mass, yet it changes its shape.
