Valerie is preparing a blood sample for analysis. She wants to separate the solid red blood cells and obtain only the liquid por

tion, called plasma. The red blood cells are too small to filter out, but are denser than the plasma.
Describe the steps Valerie could take to separate the blood sample.

Sample Response: First, she should put the sample in a test tube and place it in a centrifuge. This would cause the red blood cells to move to the bottom because of their higher density. Next, she would be able to decant the plasma and analyze it separately from the red blood cells.

Hope this helps :)

A bowling ball with a mass of 9kg is thrown down a lane with a constant speed of 3 m/s. The ball hits the 1.5kg pin, initially a
olasank [31]

Answer:

M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3    conservation of momentum

V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1      where V2 = speed of M1 after impact

V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9  =   (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s

Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign

Magnet A has twice the magnetic field strength of magnet B and pulls on magnet B with a force of 100 N. The amount of force that
son4ous [18]

The force exerted by the magnetic in terms of the magnetic field is,

F\propto B

Where B is the magnetic fied strength and F is the force.

Thus, if the magnetic A has twice magnetic field strength than the magnet B,

Then,

B_A=2B_B

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B is,

\begin{gathered} F_B\propto B_B \\ F_B\propto\frac{B_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{F_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{100}{2} \\ F_B=50\text{ N} \end{gathered}

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B on magnet A is 50 N.

The force exerted by the magnet A exerts on the magnet B is exactly 100 N as given.

Hence, the option B is the correct answer.

How does the force of gravity exerted
givi [52]

The two forces of gravity are equal

Explanation:

We can answer this question by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the Sun as object A and the Earth as object B. This means that the force of gravity exerted by the Sun on the Earth is the action, while the force of gravity exerted by the Earth on the Sun is the reaction: according to Newton's third law, these two forces are equal and opposite.

Therefore, the two forces of gravity are equal in magnitude, which is given by:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the Earth

r is the separation between the Earth and the Sun

an object has a displacement of + 12 m in 6 seconds if the average velocity is found using the equation change in position / ela
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

+2m/s

Explanation:

average   velocity = displacement traveled / total time taken

                           = +12m/ 6s

                           = +2 m/s

You look at a barometer and see that the air pressure is getting much higher... How will the weather probably change? *
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The weather will clear up and get sunnier.

Explanation:As weather forecasters monitor air pressure, falling barometer measurements can signal that bad weather is on the way. In general, if a low pressure system is on its way, be prepared for warmer weather with storms and rain. If a high pressure system is coming, you can expect clear skies and cooler temperatures.

hope this helped:)
