Biology 107 Lab Sample Quiz Table 1. Characteristics of the objective lenses on a light microscope. *Use a wavelength of light of 565nm for your calculation 1. The following is a drawing of a virus. What is its actual size? 2. Would this virus be seen under a light microscope? Why?
It is contained inside a long, narrow cell of length
1×10−41×10−4 mm. What uncertainty does this imply for the velocity
of the virus along the length of the cell? Assume the virus has a
density equal to that of water.
The virus has a diameter of 50 nm.
What is
?
What region of the spectrum best corresponds to light with a wavelength equal to... the size of a virus? the diameter of a hydrogen atom? your height?
Density is equal to the mass of a substance divided by its volume: density = mass of substance/volume of substance Water displacement can be used to find the volume of a solid by placing the object in a known volume of water. When the object is added to water, the measured total volume increases. This final volume is equal to the volume of the initial water plus the volume of the solid object added. To determine the volume of the...
A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose size is approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the bat makes. If bats emit a chirp at a frequency of 5.89 104 Hz, and if the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, what is the smallest insect a bat can detect? _______ mm
Incorrect Question 2 0/1 pts A clast with a size of 0.03 mm is suspended in the water of a stream. The water velocity begins to slow. At what velocity (cm/s) will this clast finally stop moving? 1000 Erosion 100 Flow speed (cm/s] Transport Deposition A 0.1 + 10 0,001 0,01 100 1000 Grain size [mm]
(a) Calculate time required for a virus particle that is 50 nm (50x10-9 m) in diameter with a density of 1.03 g cm-3 suspended in water with a density of 1.0 g cm-3 to settle out of a water column that is 3 m deep. Assume the dynamic viscosity is 1x10-3 kg m-1 s-1. (b) What is the time required if the virus particle was attached to an Al(OH)3 floc that is 0.1 mm in diameter with a density of...
8. 5pt Suppose you gathered a ball of interstellar gas that was equal to the size of the Earth (a radius of about 6400 km). If this gas has a density of 3.8 hydrogen atoms per cm3, typical of the interstellar medium, what would its total mass be? The volume of a sphere is (For comparison, a bowling ball has a mass of about 5 kg) 9. [5pt] At the average density of of a star-forming molecular cloud, about 880...
. If 1 mm is equal to1/25,400 inch, convert the size of a bacterium measuring 3 µm X 1.5 µm to inches and Show your calculations.
You have discovered a new virus and you decide to estimate its size by using a series of filters. There is no loss of activity when you pass suspension of your virus through a 0.3µm filter, there is a 1 log decrease in activity upon passage through a 0.1-µm filter, and there is a total loss of the remaining activity upon passage through the 0.05-µm filter. What would be your conclusions?
