Answer:

b .at the outer edge of the Galactic Disk

Explanation:

The sun is located on the outeredge of the galaxy. So it has an orbit within our Milky Way galaxy that is also located arround the outer edge of the galactic disk, and goes around in about 30 million years.

In reallity, allong its trayectory, the sun goes above and below the gallactic disk, but it stays in the outer edge of the galaxy, far away from the galactic bulge and the galactic center, but closer to it than the galactic halo.

A box is initially sliding across a frictionless floor toward a spring which is attached to a wall. the box hits the end of the

Serjik [45]

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where k is the spring's constant and x is the displacement with respect to the relaxed position of the spring.

The work done by the spring is the negative of the potential energy difference between the final and initial condition of the spring:
$W=-\Delta U = \frac{1}{2}kx_i^2 - \frac{1}{2}kx_f^2$

In our problem, initially the spring is uncompressed, so $x_i=0$ . Therefore, the work done by the spring when it is compressed until $x_f$ is
$W=- \frac{1}{2}kx_f^2$
And this value is actually negative, because the box is responsible for the spring's compression, so the work is done by the box.

Why is evolution called a scientific theory?

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Evolution is both a fact and a theory. Evolution is widely observable in laboratory and natural populations as they change over time. The fact that we need annual flu vaccines is one example of observable evolution. At the same time, evolutionary theory explains more than observations, as the succession on the fossil record. Hence, evolution is also the scientific theory that embodies biology, including all organisms and their characteristics. In this paper, we emphasize why evolution is the most important theory in biology. Evolution explains every biological detail, similar to how history explains many aspects of a current political situation. Only evolution explains the patterns observed in the fossil record. Examples include the succession in the fossil record; we cannot find the easily fossilized mammals before 300 million years ago; after the extinction of the dinosaurs, the fossil record indicates that mammals and birds radiated throughout the planet. Additionally, the fact that we are able to construct fairly consistent phylogenetic trees using distinct genetic markers in the genome is only explained by evolutionary theory. Finally, we show that the processes that drive evolution, both on short and long time scales, are observable facts.
