Answer:

9200 seconds

2.55 hours

Explanation:

Given,

Rate of movement of replication fork across the base pair is equal to 500 base pair per second.

The total number of base pair in the chromosome of an e. coli bacteria = 4.6 million

= 4.6 * 10^6\\

Now, time taken by replication fork to replicate the entire e. coli chromosome

is equal to total number of base pairs in the chromosome of an e.coli bacteria divided by the rate of replication

= \frac{4.6* 10^6}{500} \\= 9200 seconds

= \frac{9200}{60*60}\\= 2.55 hours

Answer:

So i just finished doing this project and this what i put, I hope this helps (:

Explanation:

1. When mass 1 increases the force between the objects increases. If Mass 2 decreases, the force between the objects decreases

2. An object with more mass has more/less gravitational force than an object with a smaller mass. Objects that are closer together have more/less of a gravitational force between them than objects that are further apart. The more separation two objects have, the more the force between them decreases.

3. The forces are equal (Newton's third law of motion)

4. The force between the spheres will quadruple

5. ( I dont know what this is )

6. The force of gravity exerted by the notebook on you is negligible

--The force of gravity

If there is a force between all masses, why are you not pulled toward your desk by the desk’s gravity when you walk away from it? Remember that the net force on you determines how your motion changes. The force of gravity between you and the desk is extremely small compared with other forces constantly acting on you, such as friction, the force from your muscles, Earth’s gravity, and the gravitational pull from many other objects. The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. The Mass of the Objects The more mass two objects have, the greater the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled.

--The Distance Between the Objects

As distance between the objects increases, the force of gravity decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is one-fourth as strong as before.

--Gravity on Earth

​​​​​​​ The force of gravity acts on both masses equally, even though the effects on both masses may be very different. Earth’s gravity exerts a downward pull on a dropped coin. Remember that every action force has an equal and opposite reaction force. The coin exerts an equal upward force on Earth. Because the coin has an extremely small mass compared with Earth, the coin can be easily accelerated. Earth’s acceleration due to the force of the coin is far too small to notice because of Earth’s large mass. The acceleration due to Earth’s gravity is called g and is equal to 9.8 m/s2 at Earth’s surface. You can calculate the force of Earth’s gravity on an object at Earth’s surface using the object’s mass and this acceleration. The formula that expresses Newton’s second law is F = ma. If you use g as the acceleration, the formula for calculating the force due to gravity on a mass close to Earth’s surface becomes F = mg.
