A woman exerts 100n of force to lift a laundry basket weighing 75 n show work

Biology

Andru [333]3 years ago

In order to calculate the work done, you need to know how far she lifted it.  We don't know the distance, so it's not possible to calculate the work.

All we have right now is a laundry basket that weighs 75N being lifted with 100N of force.  Reading carefully, we know that the vertical forces on the laundry basket are unbalanced, and the NET force on it is 25N upward.

We can go further if we assume that all of this is happening on Earth.  Then, since the basket's weight is 75N, its mass is (W/g) = 7.653 kg.  From Newton #2, we know that F=mA, which we can re-arrange to state that A = F/m. So in the case of the unfortunate laundry basket,

A = F/m = (25N / 7.653 kg) = <em>3.27 m/s²</em> .

The laundry basket is accelerating to the sky as we speak, at the rate of 3.27 meters per second².  As it cleared the fence a few moments ago, Mrs. O'Leary's cows next door spotted it, panicked, ran into the barn and clear through the back wall into the pasture.  Now, a full minute after lift-off, the laundry basket has achieved a vertical velocity 196 m/s, and is 5.88 kilometers downrange.  After a simple roll maneuver, it may be in orbit soon, if the 100N force on it continues.

<u>Answer</u>:

1. Gene expression may be controlled by epigenetic mechanisms.

The base pair sequence of a gene is not solely responsible for the sequence of amino acids. A gene may have several allele/variants whose expression is controlled by multiple factors. Epigenetic processes such as DNA methylation, do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. Instead they influence the protein amino acid sequence by changes in the process of transcription or even translation.

2. The mutation introduced a stop codon into the middle of the mRNA molecule.

The protein will be shorter if the point mutation causes the creation of a stop codon in the interior of the mRNA strand. Thus, the remaining sequence after the mutation will no longer be used to create the rest of the protein.

3. Pre-mRNA is not edited, and is used as mRNA.

Because no introns and exons are included in the model, the pre-mRNA is not edited. During this step, the introns are removed from the DNA strand. However, due to the fact that the model does not define them and thus differentiate between them and the exons, the pre-mRNA will be used as mRNA.

4. The process of translation in the beetle is similar to other organisms, but involves a unique genetic code.

The processes of translation and transcription are identical in all organisms. The only difference is the DNA sequence itself, which is species or organism specific. Thus, as it is a new beetle species, its genetic code will be unique. However, it will be translated and transcripted in the same manner as that in all other species.Their mRNA will also have and use the same nucleic acids.

5. The removes introns from pre-mRNA.

The pre-mRNA includes both introns and exons. However, only exons are used in the protein synthesis, whereas the introns are removed during the pre-mRNA stage.

6. Each of many tRNA molecules contains an anticodon, and it binds to a specific amino acid.

The anticodon of a tRNA molecule is amino acid specific. Thus, it can bind to one or a few specific mRNA codons.

7. RNA contains uracil (U) instead of thymine (T).

Both DNA and RNA have phosphate groups bound to a nitrogenous base. However, the single stranded RNA has uracil instead of the thymine found in the double stranded DNA. Also, both RNA and DNA have cytosine and guanine.
