Chem/Phys Flashcards
Use instantaneous or average velocity for PFGE?
Use average velocity for multiple changes. Instantanous will not help because it does not account for more than one trial.
Average speed and velocity in gel that only goes in one direction?
Average speed and volcity will be similar in gel that travels one direction.
What happens in PFGE when there are 2 bands for DNA?
They will separate more
What Ka to use when pOH 4.8?
Use Ka of 6.2*10^-10 because pH=9.2 so use Ka same as pH for a buffer
Electric field points where?
From (+) to (-). An axon is negative
Is sodium, potassium, or chloride ions smaller?
Sodium because smallest MW
Given 100 m/s, what is distance of electrodes?
Look in graph for milliseconds
What is needed to find resistance?
Need resistance per unit length and length
What will y intercepts be given multiple V max on lineweaver burk plot?
All intercepts will differ
Pressure inside buriet will be what when water inside is higher than outside?
Lower
Given density and volume, finding mass. Density kg/cm cubed?
Divide by 10^6
What is needed to solve using dopplers effect?
speed of sound, frequency of sound waves emitted and observed. Not speed of moving object.
How to determine which active site determines binding?
Whichever binding site has more competing
Given that hydrophobic and anionic are ligand, which amino acids bind?
L and R
How to solve for density of human body when some is in water?
W(air)/[W(air)-W(water)]
Determine charge with what groups?
Carboxylic acid and phosphates
Phosphate on which carbon on ribose?
3
Solve for frequence given h and E?
f=E/h
What would doppler help measure in body?
blood flow because measures differences in speed based on frequency
Given P and V, change P, what will new V be to keep the same ratio?
Use PV=PV
Gas will behave not ideal in what condition?
High pressure, low volume
Find total pressure given moles of each and pressure of 1?
Add all moles and solve by total moles.
Given standard reduction potentials (E), which is best oxidizing agent?
Flip signs to make them negative, the less negative one is better oxidizing agent.
Given standard reduction potentials (E), both negative, in electrolytic cell, which will reduce and oxidize?
More negative reduction potential will reduce because eletrolytic cell.
What changes/will not change as light goes from 1 media to another?
Velocity and wavelength will change. Frequency will not change.
Required for doppler effect?
One must be moving toward or away to detect shift.
Open pipe vs closed pipe harmonics?
Open= 1, 2, 3… Closed= 1, 3, 5…
Minimum velocity in spring?
zero
Percent above water given density= 491?
50.9% because 491/1000 is in water
Given acceleration, mass to charge ratio (do 1/x), find strength of electric field?
E= ma/q
Using strontium instead of potassium, electric field required would be?
Less than 2E but greater than E because +2 charge and also twice mass will almost cancel out
How will current travel?
Least resistance!
How to double capacitance?
use a radius of 2^(1/2)r
Work done in magnetic field?
Zero because work is done parallel, magnetic field perpendicular
Carbon configuration in amide hydrolysis?
sp3->sp2->sp3 (N attacks carbonyl)
Why does light more slowly in optical lens than through a vacuum?
light is absorbed and re-emitted by the atomic structure of the optically dense medium
What will electron do when released from cathode in eletric field?
Accelerate towards anode. Current will begin to flow
Increase frequency of a photon has what effect?
Increases speed of ejected electrons, does not effect number ejected
Increasing speed of charged particle will affect electric force how?
Will not affect electric force. E= qE
Given mass, charge, and electric field, how to find acceleration?
A= qE/m
How to change focal length?
Change radius is only way
Charge cannot accumulate indefinently on a capacitor because?
Two plates of capacitor accumulate charge of different sign. As you collect more, the other is harder to add because repulsion (hard to reach until equilibrium)
When capacitor discharges, how to keep same current?
Must reduce resistance because voltage decreases as capacitor discharges
What can store energy?
Batteries and capacitors
Pressure of fluid formula?
P= gravity * height * density
What is 0.707/0.5
700/500 equals 1.4 so answer 1.41
Going from lower to higher index of refraction?
Light should bend towards the normal (air to bead)
Effect on image when larger index of refraction is used?
Image will move (not smaller or larger)
How to solve for wavelength when given frequency, speed of light and diameter?
Solve wavelength= V/f and then Diameter / wavelength
Solve for pressure difference in fluid?
pressure= density * gravity * delta height. Do not do pgd = pdg
How much of ball is floating?
mg= pvg
Solve for artery blood flow when diameter cut in half?
speed doubles because stays constant
When using stronger magnet what happens?
F= qvB so voltage increases
How to make tone lower in violin?
Use heavier strings. Do not mess with wood
How block accelerates in pulley system?
Coefficient of KE is always smaller than coefficient of static friction. Constant force on mass produces linear acceleration (second newton law) not exponential
How to solve for coefficient of static friction?
frictional force/normal force
What will velocity be when released at 10 m vs 20 m?
20 m will have velocity increased by a factor of (2^1/2)
If cart moves without brake a stops, use what for force? (FV for power)
Use friction not brake force
