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.

Levart [38]

Explanation:

Let

x_1 = distance traveled while accelerating

x_2 = distance traveled while decelerating

The distance traveled while accelerating is given by

x_1 = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = \frac{1}{2}at^2

\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{2}(2.5\:\text{m/s}^2)(30\:\text{s})^2

\:\:\:\:\:= 1125\:\text{m}

We need the velocity of the rocket after 30 seconds and we can calculate it as follows:

v = at = (2.5\:\text{m/s}^2)(30\:\text{s}) = 75\:\text{m/s}

This will be the initial velocity when start calculating for the distance it traveled while decelerating.

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax_2

0 = (75\:\text{m/s})^2 + 2(-0.65\:\text{m/s}^2)x_2

Solving for x_2, we get

x_2 = \dfrac{(75\:\text{m/s})^2}{2(0.65\:\text{m/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:\:= 4327\:\text{m}

Therefore, the total distance x is

x = x_1 + x_2 = 1125\:\text{m} + 4327\:\text{m}

\:\:\:\:= 5452\:\text{m}

A 0.700-kg particle has a speed of 1.90 m/s at point circled A and kinetic energy of 7.20 J at point circled B. (a) What is its
Savatey [412]

Answer:

a). E_{kA}=1.2635 J

b). V_{B}=4.535\frac{m}{s}

c). ΔE_{t}=8.4635 J

Explanation:

ΔE=kinetic energy

a).

E_{kA}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v_{A} ^{2} \\ v_{A}=1.9 \frac{m}{s}\\ m=0.70kg\\E_{kA}=\frac{1}{2}*0.70kg*(1.9 \frac{m}{s})^{2} \\E_{kA}=1.2635 J

b).

E_{kB}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v_{B} ^{2}

V_{B}^{2}=\frac{E_{kB}*2}{m} \\V_{B}=\sqrt{\frac{E_{kB}*2}{m}} \\V_{B}=\sqrt{\frac{7.2J*2}{0.70kg}} \\V_{B}=4.53 \frac{m}{s}

c).

net work= EkA+EkB

E_{t}=E_{kA}+ E_{kB}\\E_{t}=1.2635J+7.2J\\E_{t}=8.4635J

Simple Harmonic Motion
Delvig [45]

- The net force is greatest at the position of maximum displacement

- The net force is zero when at the equilibrium position

Explanation:

The motion of a spring is a Simple Harmonic Motion, in which the displacement of the end of the spring is given by a periodic function of the form

x=Asin (\omega t)

where A is the amplitude (the maximum displacement), and \omega the angular frequency of the motion.

We can analyze the net force acting on the spring by looking at Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the net force

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement

From the equation, we notice immediately that:

  • The net force is the greatest when the displacement x is the greates, so at the position in which the spring has maximum compression or stretching
  • The net force is zero when the displacement x is zero, so when the spring crosses the equilibrium position

An apple falls from a tree and 2.5 seconds later hits the ground. How fast is the apple falling when it hits the ground? Neglect
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

<h2>9.8 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

<h2>Since the ball rises for 2.5 s, the time to fall is 2.5 s. The acceleration is 9.8 m/s2 everywhere, even when the velocity is zero at the top of the path. Although the velocity is zero at the top, it is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s² downward.</h2>
