Indicate whether the sentence or statement is true or false.
astra-53 [7]

Answer: No

Explanation: if a nucleic acid contains uracil then it is not DNA it's an RNA. Uracil is the basic nitrogenous base of RNA. DNA does not have Uracil in its structure. It contains thiamine instead of Uracil. So the answer is NO.

1.) A person walks 12.5 km in 1.9 h. What is the person's<br> average velocity in km/h and m/s?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

1. 6.56 km/hr

2. 1.83 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity/speed can be calculated using the formula;

Average speed/velocity = distance/time

According to the information provided in the question, distance = 12.5km, time = 1.9h

Average velocity in km/hr = 12.5/1.9

= 6.578

= 6.56km/hr

However, in order to calculate the average speed in m/s, we have to convert distance in km to m, and time in hour to seconds.

1km = 1000m

12.5km = 12.5 × 1000

= 12500m

1 hour = 3600seconds

1.9hours = 1.9 × 3600

= 6840seconds

Average velocity = 12500/6840

= 1.827

= 1.83m/s
