Newton’s law of Motion

First Law of Motion:
            It states “A body remains at rest or continue to move with uniform velocity in a straight line, unless some unbalanced force acts upon it to change its state of rest or uniform motion”
Inertia:
            The property of a body to oppose any change in its state of rest or of uniform motion is called inertia. 
Newton’s Second Law of Motion:
“When a force is applied on a body, it produces acceleration in the body. The acceleration is in the direction of the force. The acceleration is directly proportional to the applied force and inversely proportional to the mass of the body.”
            Mathematically  F=ma
Force:
            Force is an agent which when applied to a body changes or tends to change its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a straight line.
Unit of force:
            In S.I system the unit of force is newton.
                                    F = ma
                                    1N= 1kg. 1m s-2It is defined as the force which produces an acceleration of 1m s-2 in a body of mass 1kg.
Inertial Mass:
            Mass is the quantity of matter in a body which remains constant every where in the universe.
            From Newton’s second law of motion   
Thus, mass determines the acceleration produced in a body. The larger the mass the smaller will be the acceleration for a fixed applied force
Newton’s Third Law of Motion:
            When two bodies interact the action is always equal and opposite to reaction.
            “To every action force there is an equal and opposite reaction force.”
            It means that action always acts on one body and reaction on the other body. That is why action and reaction never balanced each other.
            If two bodies A and B collide, the action of body A on B is force and reaction of B on A is force Then according to Newton’s third law of motion we can write

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) DNA is heredity material. It controls the properties and potential activities of a cell. Location in cell DNA occurs in chromosomes, in the nuclei of the cells and in much lesser amounts in mitochondria and chloroplast. Chemical composition of DNA DNA is made of four kinds of  nucleotides; d-adenosine monophosphate (d-AMP) d-guanosine monophosphate (d-GMP) d-cytidine monophosphate (d-CMP) d-thymidine monophosphate (d-TMP) These nucleotides are united with one another through phosphodiester linkages in a specific sequence to form long chains. Two nucleotides join to form  dinucleotide  e.g nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide  (NAD) which is important coenzyme in several oxidation-reduction reactions in the cell. Three nucleotides join to form  trinucleotide . Ratio of Bases in DNA In 1951,  Erwin Chargaff  provided data about the ratios of different bases present in DNA. This data suggested that ade...

Mr chips important short questions.

Chapter#1 Question # 1:How does a person spend his time in old age after retirement? Answer : After retirement when a person becomes old, he has nothing to do. His time seems to pass like lazy cattle moving across a landscape(valley). Question # 2:Why did Chips keep on adjusting his timetable according to the school bells even after the retirement? Answer : After spending more than forty three(43) years at Brookfield, it was not possible for Chips to break his ties with school. He began to live across the road and Mrs. Wickets. That's why it was possible for Chips to keep on adjusting his timetable according to the school bells. Question # 3:How did Chips voice sound in old age? Answer : Although Chips had become old yet he did not loose the zeal and zeast for the life. So his voice remained resonant and lively even in his old age. Question # 4:What did Chips do before going to the bed? Answer : Chips was spending a pleasant and placid time at Mrs. Wickets after his retirem...

What are zymogens? How they are formed? What Is a Zymogen?   A zymogen is like a wrapped candy bar. In order to get to the good stuff, you need to tear away what's keeping you from it.  Zymogens , or  proenzymes , are enzymes that aren't functioning yet because their action is infertile by a 'wrapper'. The 'wrapper' can be a link between two  amino acids  (the building blocks of proteins), like a piece of string keeping a box closed. Or it can be an further section of protein, like a jar lid. How they are formed? When cells make enzymes, especially proteases, they often make them as zymogen, an inactive form of the enzyme. This is so they don't go crazy and are only used when needed. Imagine your reaction if your blender suddenly hopped about on the counter, out of control, spewing half-chopped fruit everywhere. The counter would be a mess, and so would the cell. You can recognize most zymogens by their name. Enzymes that begin with ...
