A 8.57-m ladder with a mass of 21.4 kg lies flat on the ground. A painter grabs the top end of the ladder and pulls straight upw

ard with a force of 258 N. At the instant the top of the ladder leaves the ground, the ladder experiences an angular acceleration of 1.63 rad/s2 about an axis passing through the bottom end of the ladder. The ladder's center of gravity lies halfway between the top and bottom ends. (a) What is the net torque acting on the ladder

Answer:

1311.5\ \text{Nm}

Explanation:

l = Length of ladder = 8.57 m

m = Mass of ladder = 21.4 kg

F = Force on ladder = 258 N

\alpha = Angular acceleration = 1.63\ \text{rad/s}^2

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Net torque is given by

\tau=lf-\dfrac{l}{2}mg\\\Rightarrow \tau=8.57\times 258-\dfrac{8.57}{2}\times 21.4\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow \tau=1311.5\ \text{Nm}

The net torque acting on the ladder is 1311.5\ \text{Nm}.

Los ácidos nucleicos y las proteínas comprenden una red de biomacromoléculas que almacenan y transmiten información que sustenta la vida de la célula. El estudio de estos mecanismos es un campo llamado biología molecular. El desarrollo de esta ciencia siempre ha ido acompañado de avances técnicos que permiten romper barreras metodológicas para probar hipótesis novedosas. Entre los métodos disponibles para los biólogos moleculares, destacan cinco: electroforesis, secuenciación, clonación, transferencia y reacción en cadena de la polimerasa. Su impacto llega a la genética, la medicina y la biotecnología. Aquí, se revisan la relevancia histórica, los fundamentos técnicos y las tendencias actuales de estos cinco métodos esenciales. La revisión pretende ser útil tanto para estudiantes como para científicos profesionales que buscan adquirir conocimientos avanzados sobre el valor de estos métodos para investigar los mecanismos moleculares que sostienen la vida.
