The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. Choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begins to move. Then the force (in newtons) exerted by the expanding gas on the bullet is 14,000 + 10,000x − 26,000x^{2}, where x is in meters. Determine the work done by the gas on the bullet as the bullet travels the length of the barrel.

Explanation:

We will calculate the work done as follows.

     W = \int_{0}^{0.54} F dx

         = \int_{0}^{0.54} (14,000 + 10,000x - 26,000x^{2}) dx

         = [14000x + 5000x^{2} - 8666.7x^{3}]^{0.54}_{0}

         = 7560 + 1458 - 1364.69

         = 7653.31 J

or,      = 7.65 kJ       (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gas on the bullet as the bullet travels the length of the barrel is 7.65 kJ.

A river flows with a speed of 0.600 m/s. A student first swims upriver 0.500 km, then turns around and returns to his starting p
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

a) 1111.0 seconds

b) 833.3 s

c) Because of proportions

Explanation:

a) Total time of round trip is the sum of time upriver and time downriver

t_{total}=t_{up}+t_{down}

Time upriver is calculated with the net speed of student and 0.500 km:

t_{up}=\frac{d_{istance}}{|v_{swimmer}|} ;\\v_{swimmer}=v_{relative to river}+v_{river}=-1.2+0.6=-0.6 m/s\\t_{up}=\frac{500 m}{0.6 m/s}=833.3 s

(Becareful with units 0.5 km= 500m) Similarly of downriver:

t_{down}=\frac{d_{istance}}{|v_{swimmer}|} ;\\v_{swimmer}=1.2+0.6=1.8 m/s\\t_{down}=\frac{500 m}{1.8 m/s}=277.7 s

So the sum is:

t_{total}=1111.0s

b) Still water does not affect student speed, so total time would be simply:

t_{total}=\frac{1000 m}{1.2 m/s}=833.3 s

c) For the upriver trip, student moved half the distance in half speed of the calculation in b), so it kept the same ratio and therefore, same time. So the aditional time is actually the downriver.

Batesian mimicry is an adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a given species in a given environment.

<h3>What is Batesian mimicry?</h3>

Batesian mimicry can be defined as a type of adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a particular species and/or population.

On the first island, the color of the population won't change because of the absence of predators.

On the second island, the color of the population will change because of the presence of predators that can be alerted by the color.

On the third island, the color of the population won't change because of the presence of a species with a similar color.

In conclusion, Batesian mimicry is an adaptive feature associated with the coloration of a given species in a given environment.
