BIO The Hottest Living Things From the surreal realm of deep-sea hydrothermal vents 200 miles offshore from Puget Sound, comes a newly discovered hyperthermophilic—or extreme heat-loving—microbe that holds the record for the hottest existence known to science. This microbe is tentatively known as Strain 121 for the temperature at which it thrives: 121 °C. (At sea level, water at this temperature would boil vigorously, but the extreme pressures at the ocean floor prevent boiling from occurring.) What is this temperature in degrees Fahrenheit?

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a helically-shaped bacterium that is usually found in the stomach. It burrows through the gastric mucous
lining to establish an infection in the stomach's epithelial cells (see photo). Approximately 90% of the people infected with H. pylori will
never experience symptoms. Others may develop peptic ulcers and show symptoms of chronic gastritis. The method of motility of H.
pylori is a prokaryotic flagellum attached to the back of the bacterium that rigidly rotates like a propeller on a ship. The flagellum is
composed of proteins and is approximately 40.0 nm in diameter and can reach rotation speeds as high as 1.50 x 103 rpm. If the speed
of the bacterium is 10.0 μm/s, how far has it moved in the time it takes the flagellum to rotate through an angular displacement of 5.00
* 10² rad?

T1. Calculate what is the received frequency when the car drives away from the radar antenna at a speed v of a) 1 m/s ( = 3.6 km/h), b) 10 m/s ( = 36 km/h), c) 30 m /s ( = 108 km/h) . The radar transmission frequency f is 24.125 GHz = 24.125*10^9 Hz, about 24 GHz. Speed of light 2.998 *10^8 m/s.
