Would you expect to Ser-Lys-Asp at the centre or at the surface of a globular protein and Why?

Serine has a neutral polar side chain capable of forming hydrogen bonds. Lysine has a basic
side chain, and aspartic acid has an acidic side chain, both of which can form salt bridges as
well as hydrophilic interactions. Although polar amino acids can be found inside a folded
protein structure, they are more likely to be found around the outside where the protein is in
contact with water.

The r group or side chain of the amino acid serine is -ch2-oh the r group or side chain of the amino acid alanine is -ch3 where would you expect to find these amino acids in a globular protein in aq?
Serine, being hydrophilic, will be more likely to appear near the surface of a globular protein in solution, and alanine, being hydrophobic, will more likely appear near the centre of the protein. This illustrates the "hydrophobic effect", which is one of the effects that stabilizes the tertiary and quaternary structures of proteins. The hydrophobic effect is not due to an intramolecular force but the tendency of hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acids to interact oppositely with water and segregate into surface and inner regions.
How big is a globular cluster?
A globular cluster is a group of thousands of stars. As the density decreases from the centre, all clusters are measured until the luminosity has decreased by one half - a half radii. So, most globular clusters have a half light radius of around 32 light years.
How did you find the Force on inclined submerged plane surface?
The best way is to find the centre of surface of planar area. Then the force due to hydrostatic pressure will be:F = d h0 g S,where:F is force,d is density of fluid,h0 is depth at the centre of surface,S is surface of the area.It works because when we consider the centre of surface, there will exactly as much surface with lesser pressure effecting on it as there is surface below the centre point where the pressure is higher.The net force vector will be perpendicular to the area at the centre of surface point.

What is convex mirrors?
It's reflecting surface is away from the centre of sphere of which mirror is part. This mirror is thicker from centre and thin from outside.

Is equatorial circumference the same as radius?
No. The circumference is the distance around a circle or equaltor wheras the radius is the distance from the centre of a sphere (the centre of the earch if you will) to the surface. the diameter is twice the distance of the radius and is the distance from the surface of a sphere, through the middle point across to the other surface.
