A hydrogen bond forms by the electrostatic interaction of opposite charges in two molecules. If

Darya [45]

The force between the molecules involved in the bond is 6. 426 *10^-11 Newton

<h3>How to determine the force</h3>

Using the formula:

F = K[q1 x q2]/D^2

where K is coulombs constant =9 *10 ^9 Nm^2/C^2.

q1 and q2 = charges = 1.60x10 -20C

d = distance between the charges = 2x10 -10 m

Substitute the values into the formula

F = $9 * 10^9\frac{ 1.60*10^ -20 * 1.60 *10^ -20}{2x10^ -10^{2} }$

F = $9 *10^9\frac{2. 856* 10^-40}{4* 10^-20}$

F = $9* 10^9 * 7. 14* 10^-21$

F = $6. 426 * 10^-11$ Newton

Thus, the force between the molecules involved in the bond is 6. 426 *10^-11 Newton

Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found

fredd [130]

Answer: Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found in an organism's <u>DNA.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Our genetic information is stored in DNA. DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule is a double helix structure which carries information which used in development and growth of body and determines physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color and skin color.

A 375-pound concrete cylinder has a base area of 144 square inches. with the cylinder resting on its base, the pressure exerted

Akimi4 [234]

The pressure exerted by the concrete cylinder is 2.60 pound/in².

We need to know about the pressure to solve this problem. Pressure is a unit that describes how much force is applied to a surface area. It can be determined as

P = F / A

where P is pressure, F is force and A is area.

From the question above, we know that

F = 375 pound

A = 144 in²

By substituting the given parameters, we can calculate the pressure

P = F / A

P = 375 / 144

P = 2.60 pound/in²

Thus, the pressure should be 2.60 pound/in².

A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 10 m/s^2. What will the acceleration be if: a) The

Liula [17]

What you need to know is that the force is

F=ma

The force is the product of mass and acceleration

this means that the acceleration is

a=F/m

a) The force is halved?
this means that f will be $\frac{F}{2}$ now:

a= $\frac{F}{2m}$

So the accelaration will also he halved (it's the original acceleratation divided by 2)

b) The object's mass is halved?
a= $\frac{F}{m/2}$ =a= $\frac{F2}{m}$

which is the original acceleration times two!! so it will double

c) The force and the object's mass are both halved?
now we have

a= $\frac{F/2}{m/2}$ =a= $\frac{2F}{2m}$ =a= $\frac{F}{m}$

so they will cancel each other out and the acceleration will stay the same!
