Experiments using "optical tweezers" measure the elasticity of individual DNA molecules. For small enough changes in length, the

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 0.3 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on DNA molecule, $F=1.5\ nN=1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N$

The molecule got stretched by 5 nm, $x=5\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Let k is the spring constant of that DNA molecule. It can be calculated using the Hooke's law. It says that the force acting on the spring is directly proportional to the distance as :

$F=-kx$

$k=\dfrac{F}{x}$

$k=\dfrac{1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N}{5\times 10^{-9}\ m}$

k = 0.3 N/m

So, the spring constant of the DNA molecule is 0.3 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

GenaCL600 [577]

Initial velocity=u=0m/s
Acceleration=a=10m/s^2
Time=t=2s

Final velocity=v

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=u+at$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=0+10(2)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto v=20m/s$

What real-world examples show no work begin done? Can you think of examples other than resisting the force of gravity?

irga5000 [103]

Oh my gosh ! Resisting the force of gravity always DOES involve doing work.
If no work is being done, then you're NOT resisting the force of gravity.

Example:

-- ball rolling on the floor . . . no work
-- ball rolling up a ramp . . . work being done
-- ball rolling down a ramp . . . work being done, BY gravity
