The correct answer is option C

DNA is used in tracking the evolutionary changes as certain mutation in DNA happen at constant rate.

DNA is a stable molecule and the mutations that takes place in the DNA occurs at constant rate so it is easy to be studied for the evolutionary traces.

The DNA is used to to study the phylogenetic events that are not documented by the fossils.

When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. What type of change is it? Explain.

\large{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\frak {\color {red}{Question:}}}}}}

\sf \red{When \: baking \: soda \: is \: mixed \: with \: lemon \: juice, \: bubbles \: are \: formed \: with \: the \: evolution \: of \: a \: gas.}

\large{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\frak {\color {blue}{Answer:}}}}}}

When baking soda is mixed with lemon juice, bubbles are formed with the evolution of a gas. The gas is formed in the reaction is Carbon dioxide. CO_{2} is formed.

The change which happened in this reaction is a chemical change.

\boxed{ \frak \green{Explanation}}

Since, in chemical change we can't bring a substance to it's actual form how it was in earlier.

Examples: burning of paper is chemical, since we can't get the fine paper again after it is burnt.

Thus, the above reaction is also a chemical change, since we can't get back the lemon juice how it was earlier.

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light  λ is  580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D  = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = \frac{\lambda\times D}{d}

Putting the values we get fringe width

= \frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe  is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be  

= 4.86 mm.

A 4 kilogram box is at rest on a frictionless floor. A net force of 12 newtons acts on it. What is the acceleration of the box?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

<h2>3 m/s^2</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Mass m= 4kg

Force F= 12N

Required

Acceleration the relation between force, acceleration, and mass is Newton's first equation of motion, which says a body will continue to be at rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force

F=ma

a=F/m

a=12/4

a=3 m/s^2

What is the approximate value of the gravitational force between a 73 kg astronaut and a 7.1×104 kg spacecraft when they're 89 m
Luden [163]

Answer:

F = 4.3671 * 10^{-8}\ Newtons

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two corpses is given by the following equation:

F = GMm/d^2

Where F is the force, G is the gravitational constant

(G = 6.67408*10^{-11}\ m^3kg^{-1}s^{-2}), M and m are the masses of the corpses and d is the distance between them.

So we have that:

F = 6.67408*10^{-11} * 7.1*10^4 * 73/89^2

F = 4.3671 * 10^{-8}\ Newtons
