What is the differences between mitosis and meiosis?

Mitosis and meiosis are both processes which describe the production of new cells. Mitosis produces 2 daughter cells which are genetically identical to the parent cell. Each daughter cell is diploid (contains the normal number of chromosomes). This is the result of DNA replication and 1 cell division. Mitosis is used in growth and asexual reproduction. Meiosis produces 4 daughter cells, each of which are unidentical to the parent cell and to one another. Each daughter cell is haploid (contains half the number of normal chromosomes). This is the result of DNA replication, followed by crossing over of homologous chromosomes and separation of chromosomes. There are two cell divisions: the parent cell divides once and then each cell produced by this first division divides once. Meiosis is used to produce gametes (sperm and egg cells), the cells of sexual reproduction. Two gametes fuse to form a zygote, a diploid cell with the full number of chromosomes.

A mass hanged on a spring scale. what is the force exerted by gravity on 700g ?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

6.86 N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = mg............... Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted by gravity on the mass, m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity

Note: The Force exerted by gravity on the mass is thesame as the weight of the body.

From the question,

Given: m = 700 g = (700/1000) = 0.7 kg

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = 9.8(0.7)

F = 6.86 N

Decreases, stays the same, increases. The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume). The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules. The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.

A particle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of vector a = 2.00ĵ m/s2 and an initial velocity of vector v i =
natali 33 [55]

With acceleration

\mathbf a=\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\,\mathbf j

and initial velocity

\mathbf v(0)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i

the velocity at time <em>t</em> (b) is given by

\mathbf v(t)=\mathbf v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\mathbf a\,\mathrm du

\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\displaystyle\int_0^t\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\,\mathbf j\,\mathrm du

\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u\,\mathbf j\bigg|_{u=0}^{u=t}

\mathbf v(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\,\mathbf j

We can get the position at time <em>t</em> (a) by integrating the velocity:

\mathbf x(t)=\mathbf x(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^t\mathbf v(u)\,\mathrm du

The particle starts at the origin, so \mathbf x(0)=\mathbf0.

\mathbf x(t)=\displaystyle\int_0^t\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u\,\mathbf j\,\mathrm du

\mathbf x(t)=\left(\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)u\,\mathbf i+\dfrac12\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)u^2\,\mathbf j\right)\bigg|_{u=0}^{u=t}

\mathbf x(t)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t\,\mathbf i+\left(1.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\,\mathbf j

Get the coordinates at <em>t</em> = 8.00 s by evaluating \mathbf x(t) at this time:

\mathbf x(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)\,\mathbf i+\left(1.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)^2\,\mathbf j

\mathbf x(8.00\,\mathrm s)=(64.0\,\mathrm m)\,\mathbf i+(64.0\,\mathrm m)\,\mathbf j

so the particle is located at (<em>x</em>, <em>y</em>) = (64.0, 64.0).

Get the speed at <em>t</em> = 8.00 s by evaluating \mathbf v(t) at the same time:

\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(2.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(8.00\,\mathrm s)\,\mathbf j

\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)=\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf i+\left(16.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathbf j

This is the <em>velocity</em> at <em>t</em> = 8.00 s. Get the <em>speed</em> by computing the magnitude of this vector:

\|\mathbf v(8.00\,\mathrm s)\|=\sqrt{\left(8.00\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2+\left(16.0\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)^2}=8\sqrt5\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\approx17.9\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}
