puck of mass m initially at speed u collides head-on (without rotation) with a stationary puck of mass M. Find the velocities of both puck after the collision if: i) the collision is fully elastic ii) the collision if fully inelastic. i) momentum: kinetic energy: mu = mv+MV (+ve in direction of initial u) 1 /2 m u2 = 1/2 m v2 + 1/2 M V2 2 eqns in 2 unknowns: V = (u - v) m/M substitute in K eqn: u2 = v2 + (M/m) V2 = v2 + (M/m) (u - v)2 (m/M)2 = v2 + (u - v)2 (m/M) let ρ = (m/M) ⇒ v2 (1 + ρ) - 2ρ

Ah Seung Chong Molecular Biology CTW: Enzyme Kinetic Dr. Cruz 07/22/2010 Enzyme kinetics Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts or assistants‚ without enzyme many of important processes of life could not happen. Most of enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions by lowering amount of activation energy needed for the reaction1. Enzymes are usually highly selective‚ only bind to specific substrate and convert it to product at a particular rate1. The rate of the reaction

Biochemistry Unit The Kinetics of Alkali Phosphatase Inhibition 1. OVERVIEW This practical builds on the enzymology lab skills you learned in the Acid Phosphatase practical. Again‚ you will measure the initial reaction velocity (V 0) of an enzyme reaction‚ but this time in the absence and then presence of an inhibitor. Last time you used Acid Phosphatase (Prac 1)‚ but this time you will use the enzyme Alkali Phosphatase. These enzymes have different primary (and hence tertiary) structures

Melissa Cavanaugh Lab: Tuesdays at 1pm Enzyme Kinetics Lab Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that will catalyze reactions to make the rate of the reaction occur faster than it would without. It can also make the reaction occur in the first place. Tyrosinase is an enzyme that has a variety of functions and activities. It produces pigments like melanin and others that would be apparent when a fruit is cut in half and it browns. (Bien-etre 3).There is that one function that stands out and the enzyme

Abstract: Gravimetric analysis can be used to determine the percentage of phosphorus in plant food. A precipitant of known composition is produced and weighed to find percent of phosphorus in compound. From the mass and known composition of the precipitate‚ the amount of original ion can be determined. Introduction: Gravimetric analysis is based on the measurement of mass. Gravimetric analysis involves isolation of an ion in solution by a precipitation reaction‚ filtering‚ washing the precipitate

Rachel Smith Design Lab: Kinetics Lab Introduction: ! Background Information- Effervescent tablets reduce stomach acid and help treat upset stomachs. The familiar fizzing you hear when you drop an Alka-Seltzer tablet into a glass of water is the result of a chemical reaction. After dropping the tablet into the water‚ the reaction causes the solid tablet to become dissolved and releases tiny bubbles of carbon dioxide. This reduces the time it takes for the medicine to work as it does not need to dissolve

Use the postulates of the kinetic theory to explain the following: i)Matter can exist in three states ii)The pressure exerted by a confined gas decreases as its temperature is lowered iii)A gas of low molecular mass will diffuse through air faster than a gas of high molecular masseven though both are at same temperature. The Kinetic Theory can be used to describe the three physical states of matter namely‚ solid‚ liquid and gas. In this theory‚ some basic assumptions has to be made: a) all matter

AP Chemistry Kinetics Lab Abstract: The purpose of this lab is to learn how to write law expressions‚ determine orders by graphs‚ and calculate rate constants. By determining the number of drops of sodium hypochlorite necessary to make a diluted food dye change to colorless in less than three minutes helps calculate the absorbance which can then be analyzed to find the pseudo rate constant and eventually leading to the rate constant and the rate law. The results show that the m and n are both 1st

Sebastian Hernandez How does Stephen Fry use literary devices to support his purpose in writing Kinetic Typography? Language has slowly deteriorated throughout time and Stephen Fry has been able to express this issue in writing Kinetic Typography. He constantly introduces his view of language as something that could be fun‚ entertaining‚ and possibly enjoyable but English speakers of the day had let the beauty and grace of the language fall away and those that retain the practice of language
