Weight- force pulling the object towards the center of the earth. Normal force is the surface's force pushing on an object. Tension is the force (from a rope), which is used to support object(s) without breaking. Friction is the a reaction force (used to keep an object at same motion) Starting/Static: Friction that goes in the direction of the intended motion to keep it there (at rest) Kinetic/Sliding: Friction that goes the opposite of the intended motion to keep the nonzero velocity constant. A wheel has starting friction, not kinetic friction. If a wheel had a kinetic friction, it would slide as if it was on ice, or slide like you do when sliding block. A square block does not rotate, because kinetic friction (from the shape of the block, I'm guessing) does not allow the block to. Derivatives of : If you can't find a derivative, try and use non-calculus methods. Remember where we got the idea of the derivative and instead, find the slope of the secant line (or use the derivative equation without lim of delta x). When studying integration, the most important part is method, because it's the hardest place to notice is where you messed up. NEVER tell somebody what your essay is about when you're getting help from them in editing- it defeats the purpose of the essay itself. NEVER indicate how close they are to the theme, etc.. That's how you know if your grammar/English is good or not (note: it maybe be boring either way). Biology notes: Carbohydrate: monosaccharide: simplest kind (CH2O)n. where n=3 to 8. ex. alpha beta glucose and fructose. dissacccharide: glycosidic linkage, condensation reaction, where a simple molecule is lost (dehydration if H2O). polysaccharide: ex. starch: alpha glucose polymer, principal energy storage molecules in plant cells glycogen: same polymer. pattern different. Major energy stroage molecule in animal cells cellulose: beta. structural for plant cells and main wood component. chitin: like cellulose, except nitrogen attached to the ring. structural molecule in fungus cells, insect exoskeleten, and mollusks. Lipid: insoluble in water and other polar solvents, but soluble in nonpolar substances i.e. ether or chloroform. Triglycerides: (fats, oils and waxes) consist of three fatty acids witha glycerol molecule. Fatty acid: with a carboxyl (COOH) at one end of chain. Vary in structure based on number of carbons and placement of multi-bonds. Saturated fatty acid: single paired carbon atoms. Monosaturated: one double bond; POLY more than one double bond. Phospholipid: an antipathathic (with polar and nonpolar regions) lipid with a phosphate group (PO3 2-) rpeplacing a fatty acid. The two fatty acfids are nonpolar and hydrophobic, while phosphate is polar and hydrophilic. Forms sndwichlike fomations as a result.(an element in the stucture in cell membranes.) Amino acid- a central C bonded to amino group (-NH2) and carboxyl group (-COOH) and a radical; simplest- glycine. Protein: amino acid polymers- peptide bonds forming a (poly)peptide chain primary structure describes amino acids, secondary: 3d shape from H-bonds between amino acids; teritary 3d shape dominating structure of globular protein; includes hydrogen/ionic bonding from R groups of amino acids. Hydrophobic effect of R groups moving towards certain of protein (away from H2O which protein is usually immersed) co/adhesion. formation of disulfide bonds in an amioo acid (cytosine- cytosine) quaternary a protein assembled from more than one separate peptides. Nucleic Acid: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) nucleotide polymer. Nucelotide: nitrogen base, five-carbon sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate group. Nitrogen bases- double ring purines- adenine, guanine; single ring pyrimidine thymine, cytosine. bonds: A-T, C-G double helix with antiparallel strands. RNA: different from DNA: ribose, single strand, uracil replaces thymine. Steroid: 4 carbon rings linked. |

| In college, get into the most difficult major that you can still have a high GPA in- college isn't about grades themselves, but a career path... and if you're in a major that's too easy or ( you think is pointless) or a major where you only need to get 2.0 in & you get ONLY 2.0, it's still the wrong major for you, cuz you've shown you're not great at it... That's why college is competitive and why you should never worry about switch majors & worry about if a job is right for you. |
