A feather and a minivan are dropped vertically downward from a height of twenty meters and both are subject to air drag as they

fall. The minivan reaches the ground much faster than the feather. Which one of the following statements concerning this situation is true, if any?
a) The minivan has a larger terminal velocity than the feather because it experiences less air resistance than the feather.

b) The minivan encounters a smaller force of air resistance than the feather and falls faster.

c) Each object experiences the same amount of air drag, but the minivan experiences the greatest force of gravity.

d) The feather experiences more air drag than the minivan and has a smaller terminal velocity.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is directly proportional to its length and is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, this dependence is given by:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

\rho is the material's resistance, L is the legth and A is the cross-sectional area.

For the first and second coils, we have:

R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A_1}\\R_2=\frac{\rho L}{A_2}\\\rho L=R_1A_1\\\rho L=R_2A_2\\R_1A_1=R_2A_2\\\frac{R_2}{R_1}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}

For the third and fourth coils, we have:

R_3=\frac{\rho L'}{A_3}\\R_4=\frac{\rho L'}{A_4}\\\rho L'=R_3A_3\\\rho L'=R_4A_4\\R_3A_3=R_4A_4\\\frac{R_4}{R_3}=\frac{A_3}{A_4}

If your runnin at full speed for an average human, and lept over a 10 foot brook would you make it?

Unless you are a mutant....I don't think you would make it. I'm 5'8" and most people are 6'7" or less. It's bsically impossible to do. :)

In the gene TATTCATTGTTA—TGATTT—ATTCG, CATTGTTA encodes for pepsin, a digestive enzyme. The rest of the sequence doesn’t code fo
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

TATTCATTCATTA—TGATTT—ATTCG

Explanation:

A mutation is a permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA. A mutation occurs during replication or recombination. It may be due to base substitutions, deletions and insertions. As per the question, DNA segment forms encodes for the enzyme pepsin is CATTGTTA.

Option TATTCATTCATTA—TGATTT—ATTCG is the correct answer. In the DNA segment which encodes pepsin, a purine base (G) guanine is replaced by another purine (A) adenine. This type of mutation is called a transition type point mutation.

Due to base substitution, the mutated segment CATTCATTA will nor encode pepsin.

On a horizontal surface is located
Ierofanga [76]

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)

Which force is represented by the arrow at
shutvik [7]

A is pulling the block straight down toward the center of the Earth, no matter what the slope of the plane may be. A is the force of gravity.

The directions of B and C both depend on the slope of the plane.

B is a force that's parallel to the plane, pulling the block UP the plane. B is the force of friction.

C is a force perpendicular to the plane, preventing the block from falling down through the plane. C is the normal force.
