Explain imprinting in relation to Lorenz's geese. What would most likely have happened if the first thing the goslings saw was a

dog?

iragen [17]2 years ago

If the first thing that the goslings saw was a dog, they would have followed the dog as a mother.

Imprinting refers to the process of training an animal to bond with anything it sees after birth even if it is not its real mother. Lorenz first achieved imprinting in 1935 using geese which followed him as their mother shortly after they were born.

If the geese were exposed to a dog, they could also have seen the dog as their mother and followed it accordingly shortly after birth.

A particle moves along the x-axis according to x(t)=10t−2t²m. (a) What is the instantaneous velocity at t = 2 s and t = 3 s? (b)
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

a) v(2) = 2m/s, v(3) = -2m/s

b) speed at t = 2s is 2m/s

speed at t = 3s is 2m/s

c) 0 m/s

Explanation:

We can take the derivative of x(t) to find the equation of velocity

v(t) = x'(t) = 10 - 4t

(a) v(2) = 10 - 4*2 = 10 - 8 = 2 m/s

v(3) = 10 - 4*3 = 10 - 12 = -2 m/s

(b) The speed would be the same as velocity without the direction

speed at t = 2s is 2m/s

speed at t = 3s is 2m/s

(c) The average velocity between t = 2s and t = 3s is distance it travels over period of time

v_a = \frac{s(3) - s(2)}{\Delta t} = \frac{10*3 - 2*3^2 - (10*2 - 2*2^2)}{3 - 2}

v_a = \frac{12 - 12}{1} = 0/1 = 0 m/s

A student at the top of a building of height h throws one ball upward with a speed of vi and then throws a second ball downward
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The velocity of the one thrown up will be the same as the second one

Explanation:

They will fall and hit the ground at the same time although they have the same velocity because object one although has double height it has initial velocity of zero

A net force of magnitude 36 N gives an object of mass m1 an acceleration of 6.0 m/s^2. The same net force gives m1 and another o
Jet001 [13]
This is a beautiful problem to test whether a student actually understands
Newton's 2nd law of motion . . . Force = (mass) x (acceleration). 

That simple law is all you need to solve this problem, but you need to
use it a few times.

m₁ alone:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = ( m₁ ) x  (6 m/s²)

                         m₁ = (36 N) / (6 m/s²)   

                         m₁  =  6 kilograms .

m₁ and m₂ glued together:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = (6 kg + m₂) x (2 m/s²)

                     6 kg + m₂  =  (36 N) / (2 m/s²)  =  18 kilograms

                               m₂  =  12 kilograms .

m₂ alone:
                     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                       36 N = (12 kg) x (acceleration)

                     Acceleration = (36 N) / (12 kg)

                     Acceleration  =   3 m/s²
