Answer:

The acceleration of Kaya is 1.41\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of Kaya, u = 14 m/s

Final speed of Kaya, v = 5.5 m/s

Time, t = 6 s

We need to find Kaya's acceleration. We know that it is given by the change in speed per unit time. Its formula is given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{14\ m/s-5.5\ m/s}{6\ s}\\\\a=1.41\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of Kaya is 1.41\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

After performing gel electrophoresis on the pcr product, you see that one sample has a 200 bp band and the other does not this shows that 200 bp band is significantly larger than the size of primer dimers unless the primers are 100 bp long, they are not visible.

Gel electrophoresis is the process used to evaluate the success of the PCR reaction.A closer examination of the suitability of agarose gel electrophoresis is done for assessing PCR product yield.

PCR is a series of chemical reactions that take place outside a living cell

Use of 2% agarose gel and 100bp marker and spreading the marker strips properly with 80-90V is done to avoid heating.

As a fish jumps vertically out of the water, assume that only two significant forces act on it: an upward force F exerted by the
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

a

   a =  12.32 \  m/s^2

b

 F = 1017.52 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  length of the Chinook salmon is  l =  1.50 \  m

   The mass of the Chinook salmon is m  =  46.0 \ kg

   The  upward velocity in water is  u =  3.00 \ m/s

    The  upward velocity in air is v =  5.80 \ m/s

   

Generally from kinematic equations

     v^2  =  u^2 +  2as

=>    5.80^2  =  3.00^2 +  2  *  a *  [ [\frac{2}{3} * l ]

=>   5.80^2  =  3.00^2 +  2  *  a *  [ [\frac{2}{3} * 1.5 ]

=>   5.80^2  =  3.00^2 +  2  *  a *  [1 ]      

=>    a =  12.32 \  m/s^2

Generally magnitude of the force F during this interval in N  is mathematically represented as

      F  =  m (a + g )

=>    F  =  46.0 (12.32 + 9.8 )

=>    F = 1017.52 \  N

This problem has been solved!
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward, and the force of gravity acting on the ball is directed downward.

Explanation:

When a ball is tossed vertically upwards, it reaches its maximum point. This maximum point is known as the maximum height of the ball. At this maximum height, its velocity is zero, its acceleration is directed downwards and the force of gravity acting in the ball is directed downwards towards the earth.

7. A scientist studying a squid observes that the squid at rest
Rzqust [24]

The average force on the squid during the ejection of 0.60 kg of water at a velocity of 15.0 m/s in 0.15 seconds is 60 N.              

We can calculate the average force with the average acceleration as follows:

F = m\overline{a}   (1)

Where:

  • m: is the mass of water = 0.60 kg
  • \overline{a}: is the average acceleration

The <em>average acceleration</em> is given by the change of velocity in an interval of time

\overline{a} = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}   (2)

Where:

  • v_{i}: is the initial velocity = 0 (the squid is at rest)
  • v_{f}: is the final velocity = 15.0 m/s
  • t_{i}: is the initial time = 0  
  • t_{f}: is the final time = 0.15 s

Now we can find the <em>average force</em> after entering equation (2) into (1)

F = m(\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t_{f} - t_{i}}) = 0.60 kg(\frac{15.0 m/s - 0}{0.15 s}) = 60 N  

Therefore, the average force on the squid during the propulsion is 60 N.
