Answer:

New research reveals that glycans -- branched sugar molecules found in mucus -- can prevent bacteria from communicating with each other and forming infectious biofilms, effectively rendering the microbes harmless.

A car which is traveling at a velocity of 15 m/s undergoes an acceleration of 6.5 m/s2 over a distance of 340 m. How fast is it

fomenos

Answer:68.15m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₁=15m/s

a=6.5m/s²

v₁=?

x=340m

Formula:

v₁²=v₁²+2a (x)

Set up:

= $\sqrt{15m/s} ^{2} +2(6.5m/s^2)(340m)$

<h2>Solution:</h2><h2>68.15m/s</h2>

A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward

kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C

A man stands by a train track to watch the train car go by. Inside, a man walks through the train car eating a hot dog (the hot

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

D) 11 m/s

Explanation:

The problem asks us to calculate the velocity of the hot dog with respect to the observer stationary outside the train. This velocity is given by:

$v=v_t + v_m + v_h$

where

$v_t=+10 m/s$ is the velocity of the train (towards right)

$v_m=+2 m/s$ is the velocity of the man (towards right)

$v_h=-1 m/s$ is the velocity of the hot-dog (towards left, so we put a negative sign)

Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

$v=+10 m/s+2 m/s-1 m/s=+11 m/s$

and the positive sign means the velocity is toward right.

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.

babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

$p\propto \frac{1}{A}$

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"

is true.
