Two thin-walled concentric conducting spheres of radii 5.0 cm and 10 cm have a potential difference of 100 V between them.
 
  (k = 1/40 = 8.99  109 N  m2/C2)
  (a) What is the capacitance of this combination?
  (b) What is the charge carried by each sphere?

Question 2

Blocks A and B of masses 10 kg and 7 kg, respectively, are connected by a rope, which passes over a light frictionless pulley, as shown. The horizontal surface is rough. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.40 and 0.20, respectively.
 
  External forces P and Q act on block B, as shown. In Figure 5.20, force P equals 28 N. The maximum value of force Q, for which the system remains at rest is closest to: A) 140 N
  B) 120 N
  C) 98 N
  D) 110 N
  E) 130 N

Interferon was scarce and expensive until 1980, when the interferon gene was inserted into bacteria using recombinant DNA technology, allowing for mass cultivation and purification from bacterial cultures.

Many medications that are used to treat infertility are injected subcutaneously. This is easy to do using the anterior abdomen as the site of injection but avoiding the area directly around the belly button.

Did you know?

Adolescents often feel clumsy during puberty because during this time of development, their hands and feet grow faster than their arms and legs do. The body is therefore out of proportion. One out of five adolescents actually experiences growing pains during this period.

Did you know?

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.

Oxytocin is recommended only for pregnancies that have a medical reason for inducing labor (such as eclampsia) and is not recommended for elective procedures or for making the birthing process more convenient.
