4 0

Answer:

a = 3,0 m/s²

Explanation:

En este ejercicio se pide calcular la aceleracion del cuerpo, usemos las ecuaciones de cinematica en una dimensión.

v= v₀ + a t

como el corredor parte del reposo si velocidad inicial es cero

v = at

a = v/t

calculemos

a = 12 /4,0

a = 3,0 m/s²

The process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position is called.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Mutation is the process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position

Any change in the structure of a gen or in the usual DNA sequence of a cell is called mutation. It can be caused by mistakes during cell division when the DNA is copied or by the exposure to DNA damaging agents in the environment like UV light or cigarette smoke, and may be transmitted to subsequent generations.

A mutation is a permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of an organism, virus or other genetic elements.

There are three types of mutations:

Base substitutions
Deletions
Insertions

The Deoxyribonucleic acid, also called DNA, is the hereditary material that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of humans and almost all other organisms. DNA is made of nucleotides.

A. How long does it take light to travel through a 3.0-mm-thick piece of window glass?

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

a) $1.517\times10^{-11}$ s

b) 3.41 mm

Explanation:

We take the speed of light, c = $3.0\times10^8$ m/s and the refractive index of glass as 1.517.

Speed = distance/time

Time = distance/speed

Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium

$n=\dfrac{c}{s}$

$s=\dfrac{c}{n}$

$t=\dfrac{d}{c/n}$

$t=\dfrac{dn}{c}$

$t=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{3.0\times10^8}$

$t=1.517\times10^{-11}$

We take the refractive index of water as 1.333.

Speed in water = speed in vacuum / refractive index of water

Distance = speed * time

$d=s\times t$

$d=\dfrac{c}{n_w}\times \dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times1.517}{c}$

$d=\dfrac{3\times10^{-3}\times 1.517}{1.333}$

d = 3.41 mm

Find the intensity of a 55 dB sound given I 0=10^-12W/m^2

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

Explanation:

β(dB)=10 × $log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_{0} })$

$I_{0}$ = $10^{-12}$ W/ $m^{2}$

β=55 dB

Therefore plugging into the equation the values,

55=10 $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

5.5= $log_{10}(\frac{I}{ [tex]10^{-12}$ })[/tex]

$10^{5.5}$ = $\frac{I}{10^{-12} }$

316227.76× $10^{-12}$ = I

I= 3.16 × $10^{-7}$ W/ $m^{2}$

Which part of a river would have animals with very muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water? Source z

lidiya [134]

The part of a river that would have animals with muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water is in the transition zone, the mid-transition zone to be precise. Water at the source zone possesses a lot of potential energy and as it flows from the upper reaches the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy when the course of the river begins to gradually level out and this translates into increase in velocity. By the time river water reaches the middle of the transition zone, most of the potential energy would have been turned into kinetic energy and thus water velocity would be quite high here. Animals living here would develop muscles because of constantly fighting against the strong current to avoid being swept downstream.
