Answer:

706 J

Explanation:

Use the gravitational potential energu equation

Eg = mgh

and sub in the values

Eg = (4kg)(9.8)(18)

Eg = 705.6

Which type of macromolecules a cell brake down food?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Hope this helps you find the answer

Explanation:

The proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides that make up most of the food we eat must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them—either as a source of energy or as building blocks for other molecules.

A Michelson interferometer uses red light with a wavelength of 656.45 nm from a hydrogen discharge lamp. Part A How many bright-

kati45 [8]

Answer:

51793 bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed when the mirror M2 moves through 1.7cm

Explanation:

The number of maxima appearing when the mirror M moves through distance \Delta L is given as follows,

$\Delta m = \frac{\Delta L}{\frac{\lambda}{2}}$

Here,

$\Delta L$ = is the distance moved by the mirror M

$\lambda$ is the wavelenght of the light used.

$\Delta L$ = 0.017m

$\lambda = 656.45*10^{-9}m$

$\Delta m = \frac{0.017}{\frac{656.45*10^{-9}}{2}}$

$\Delta m = 51793.72$

Therefore, 51793 bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed when the mirror M2 moves through 1.7

What mass of silver will occupy a volume of 87.75 mL? The density of silver is 10.49 g/mL.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The mass of silver that will occupy a volume of 87.75 mL is 920.5 grams.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space. In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance. Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

So the density of silver is 10.49 g / mL indicates that 10.49 g occupies a volume of 1 mL. Then a rule of three can be applied in the following way: if in 1 mL a mass of 10.49 g is occupied, in 87.75 mL how much mass will it occupy?

$mass=\frac{87.75 mL*10.49 g}{1 mL}$
