The biosynthesis of ribosomal RNA occurs in:

A small ball of mass m and charge q is attached to the bottom end of a piece of negligible mass thread of length l, whose top end is fixed. The system formed by the thread and ball is in vertical plane and is in uniform horizontal magnetic field B, which is perpendicular to the plane of figure and points into the paper The ball is started with a velocity v_(0) from lower most point of circle in a direction perpendicular both to the magnetic induction and to direction of thread. The ball moves along a circular path such that thread remains tight during the whole motion. Neglect any loss of enery. What is the magnitude of magnetic induction B, if the minimum initial speed at which the described motion of ball (complete vertical circular motion) occurs is V_(0)=(1)/(2)sqrt(17gL)

Assertion (A) : Replication and transcription occur in the nucleus but translation occurs in the cytoplasm. Reason (R ) : m-RNA is transferred from the nucleus into the cytoplasm where ribosomes and amino acids are available for protein synthesis.

The following features occur during protein synthesis: (i) Movement of m-RNA from the nucleus into the Cytoplasm, where it binds to the ribosomes (ii) Formation of amino acyl t-RNA complex (iii) Transcription of specific segments of DNA into m-RNA molecules in the nucleus (iv) Binding of N-terminal amino acid, methionine t-RNA to the 'P' site of the ribosome. The t-RNA anticodon "pairs with AUG on m-RNA" (v) Formation of peptide bond between first and second amino acids at the 'A' site (vi) Release of the completed polypeptide chain from ribosomes (vii) Migration of dipeptide to form a tripeptide and then a polypeptide The correct order of events is

Figure 1.31 shows the trace of the path of a charged particle in a bubble chamber. Assume that the magnetic field is into the plane of the paper with magnitude 0.4 T. The smooth spiral path occurs because the particle loses energy in ionizing molecules along the path. a. Which part of the path corresponds to higher kinetic energy for the particle? Inner or outer part of spiral. b. Is the charge positive or negative? c. The radius of curvature ranges from 70 mm to 10 mm. What is the range of values of the magnitude of momentum if the magnitude of the charge is e?

A series of pulses, each of amplitude 0.150 m , are sent on a string that is attached to a wall at one end. The pulses are reflected at the wall and travel back along the string without loss of amplitude. When two waves are present on the same string. The net displacement of a given point is the sum of the displacement of the individuals waves at the point. What is the net displacement at point on the spring where two pulses am crossing, (a) if the string is rigidly attached to the post? (b) if the end at which reflection occurs is free is slide up and down ?

(iii) What is the function of salt bridge in it? (iv) Name the salt to be used in salt bridge. (v) Write the reactions occurring at each electrode. (vi) In which direction the electrons would flow in the external circuit? (vii) How electrical neutrality is maintained in both the half cells?
