Can someone summarize the technique of gel electrophoresis in one or two sentences?

There is a gel (agarose) that is placed in abuffer-filled box and an electrical field is applied via a power supply. The negative terminal is at the far end (black wire), this causes DNA migrates toward the anode (red wire).

Answer:

The electric field strength at point (x,y) = ( 20 mm ,0cm) is =16321.0769 N/C

The electric field strength at point (x,y) = (0cm, 20 mm) is =35321.58999 N/C

Explanation:

Question: What is the electric field strength at point (x,y) = ( 20 mm ,0cm)?

Answer:

The electric field at any given point of the dipole is given as:

E= (KP) ÷ (r^2 + a^2)^3/2

Where:

K = 9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2 (coloumb constant)

P = (0.003) (5x10^-9c) which is the movement of the dipole

(0.003) is arrived at when mm is converted to m. 3.0 mm space apart was converted to a meter.

r= the point, in the question above is 20mm = 0.02m

Now, the electric field, E can be calculated by putting the values in the formula above:

E = (KP) ÷ (r^2 + a^2)^3/2

= (9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2) (0.003 m) (5x10^-9c) ÷ [ (0.02m)^2 + (0.003)^2]^3/2

= 0.135 ÷ (8.271513x10^-6)

=16321.0769 N/C

Question: What is the electric field strength at point (x,y) = (0cm, 20 mm )?

Answer:

Here, the electric field, E= 2krp ÷ (r^2 - a^2)^2

E= 2 (9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2) (0.02m) (0.003 m) (5x10^-9c) ÷ [(0.02m)^2 - (0.003)^2]^2

= 0.0054 ÷ 0.000000152881

=35321.58999 N/C

According to the graph, how many atoms would remain after two half-lives?

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Let No be initial no of atoms

N = N0 / 2 after 1 half-life

N = N0 / 4 after 2 half-lives

So after 2 half-lives 20 of the 80 atoms remain

If the second harmonic of a certain string is 42 Hz, what is the fundamental frequency of the string?

stich3 [128]

I would think that you would have to do 42/2=21Hz, but I'm not sure...

Do any of the galaxies appear to be closer to each other as your universe expands? What does this say about the possibility of g

Luda [366]

Explanation:

In local galactic group the force of expansion of universe is overcome by the force of attraction due to gravity. Best example is our own galaxy milky way and another giant galaxy in our local group Andromeda. Andromeda having enormous gravity is pulling milky way towards itself, overcoming the force of expansion.

So, there are possibilities of collision despite the expansion of universe at a rapid pace. It is estimated that the milky way and Andromeda will collide each other after about 50 billion years from now.
