During the redox reaction in glycolysis, which molecule acts as the oxidising agent?

The oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P), a three-carbon sugar, yields energy. In this oxidation, electrons and H+ are transferred to NAD+, forming NADH, and a phosphate group is attached to the oxi...

Using standard formulae, derive an expression for the final speed of a falling object in terms of its change in height. Assume zero air resistance or other resistive forces.

E k = (1/2)mv 2 E p = mg(dh) Set these equal to each other, because of conservation of energy: (1/2)mv 2 = mg(dh) Cancel the mass: (1/2)v 2 = g(dh) v 2 = 2g(dh) v = (2g(dh)) 1/2
