Answer:

X-linked recessive inheritance

A male with a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome is typically affected with the condition. Because females have two copies of the X chromosome and males have only one X chromosome, X-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females.

How far does light travel in the time it takes sound to travel 1 cm in air at 20°c?

kykrilka [37]

The speed of sound at $20^{\circ}C$ is approximately v=343 m/s. The distance covered by the sound wave is
$s=1 cm=0.01 m$
And the time it takes is
$t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{0.01 m}{343 m/s}=2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s$

Now we want to find how far the light travels during this time. Light travels at speed $c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ , therefore the distance it covers during this time is
$S=ct = (3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s)=8700 m$

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average velocity of 3 m/s. the river height is 90m above the lake. what is the tota

strojnjashka [21]

Kinetic energy per unit of mass is

$K=\frac{v^{2} }{2}$

Given, $v=3m/s^{2}$

Therefore,

$K=\frac{(3^{2} m/s^{2} )^2}{2}$

$K=4.5 J/kg$

Now potential energy per unit mass is

$p=g\times h$

Given, $h=90 m$

Therefore,

$p= 9.8m/s^2 \times 90$

$p=882.9 J/kg$

Thus, total mechanical energy of the river water per unit mass is

$T=K+p=(4.5+882.9)J/kg$

$T=887.9 J/kg$

$T=0.887 kJ/kg$

A thermally isolated system consists of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper. The aluminum and the copper are in t

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Explanation:

Make up a question.

The only change is going to be c.

Suppose they aluminum starts our higher at 50oC

Suppose the copper starts out at 20oC

Suppose the mass of both are 25 grams.

Aluminum

m*2c * deltat

deltat = 50 - x
c = 2*c
m = 25

Copper

m*c*deltat

deltat = x - 20

m = 25

c = c

Now since the amount of heat is the same (this starts out on a heated slab of something).

m*2c * (50 - x) = m * c * x - 20 The m and the c are the same. Cancel them out.

2 * (50 - x) = (x - 20) Remove the brackets.

100 - 2x = x - 20 Add 20 to both sides.

120 - 2x = x Add 2x to both sides.

120 = 3x Divide by 3

x = 40

What does this tell you?

It tells you that the temperature of the aluminum is only going to drop 10 degrees

The copper is going to gain 40 - 20 = 20 degrees.

The heat transfer is actually the same. It doesn't take as much heat to heat copper as it does aluminum. That's shown by the difference in how the temperature changes. One looses 10 degrees. The other gains 20. The transfer is the same because of the way the "c" operates.
