Homework 1

Problem Solving

1. Kelvin and Xavier were doing an investigation on parachutes. One of them suggested that the type of material the parachute was made from had an effect on how long it took to reach the ground. Their results are given in

the table below.

(a) Calculate the average time in seconds for each material.

<br> Determine the frequency of a green laser with a wavelength of 532nm.
const2013 [10]

Answer:

5.64*10^{14}m

Explanation:

C = Fλ

C: Speed of light = 3*10^8m/s

f: Frequency (Hz)

λ: Wavelength (m)

Rearrange formula for wavelength:

C/F = λ

\frac{3*10^8}{532*10^{-9}} =5.64*10^{14}m

What does your data indicate about the optimum ph level for this enzyme-catalyzed reaction?
mestny [16]
At an optimum pH of 7.0, there are more molecules per minute in all amounts of substrate thus this pH is ideal for maximum growth. 5. Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees Celsius. Increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate.
