Enzyme reaction and deactivation Lipase is being investigated as an additive to laundry detergent for removal of stains from fab

ric. The general reaction is: fats- fatty acids 1 glycerol The Michaelis constant for pancreatic lipase is 5 mM. At 60 C, lipase is subject to deactivation with a half-life of 8 min. Fat hydrolysis is carried out in a well-mixed batch reactor that simulates a top-loading washing machine. The initial fat concentration is 45 gmol m23. At the beginning of the reaction, the rate of hydrolysis is 0.07 mmol l21 s21. How long does it take for the enzyme to hydrolyse 80% of the fat present?

Answer:

t= 27.38 mins [this the time taken by the enzyme to hydrolyse 80% of the fat present]

Explanation:given values

Half life of lipase t_1/2 = 8 min x 60s/min = 480 s

Rate constant for first order reaction

k_d = 0.6932/480 = 1.44 x 10^-3 s-1

Initial fat concentration S_0 = 45 mol/m3 = 45 mmol/L

rate of hydrolysis Vm0 = 0.07 mmol/L/s

Conversion X = 0.80

Final concentration S = S_0(1-X) = 45 (1-0.80) = 9 mol/m3

K_m = 5mmol/L

time take is given by

t= -\frac{1}{K_d}ln[1-\frac{K_d}{V_m_0}(k_mln\frac{s_0}{s}+(s_0-s))]

all values are given and putting these value we get

t=1642.83 secs

which is equal to

t= 27.38 mins [this the time taken by the enzyme to hydrolyse 80% of the fat present]

A closely wound search coil has an area of 3.21 cm2, 120 turns, and a resistance of 58.7 O. It is connected to a charge-measurin
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The magnetic field in the System is 0.095T

Explanation:

To solve the exercise it is necessary to use the concepts related to Faraday's Law, magnetic flux and ohm's law.

By Faraday's law we know that

\epsilon = \frac{NBA}{t}

Where,

\epsilon  =electromotive force

N = Number of loops

B = Magnetic field

A = Area

t= Time

For Ohm's law we now that,

V = IR

Where,

I = Current

R = Resistance

V = Voltage (Same that the electromotive force at this case)

In this system we have that the resistance in series of coil and charge measuring device is given by,

R = R_c + R_d

And that the current can be expressed as function of charge and time, then

I = \frac{q}{t}

Equation Faraday's law and Ohm's law we have,

V = \epsilon

IR = \frac{NBA}{t}

(\frac{q}{t})(R_c+R_d) = \frac{NBA}{t}

Re-arrange for Magnetic Field B, we have

B = \frac{q(R_c+R_d)}{NA}

Our values are given as,

R_c = 58.7\Omega

R_d = 45.5\Omega

N = 120

q = 3.53*10^{-5}C

A = 3.21cm^2 = 3.21*10^{-4}m^2

Replacing,

B = \frac{(3.53*10^{-5})(58.7+45.5)}{120*3.21*10^{-4}}

B = 0.095T

Therefore the magnetic field in the System is 0.095T

What is a period in physics?<br>​
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The period of a wave is the time for a particle on a medium to make one complete vibrational cycle. Period, being a time, is measured in units of time such as seconds, hours, days or years. The period of orbit for the Earth around the Sun is approximately 365 days; it takes 365 days for the Earth to complete a cycle.
