Why did scientist reject Lamarck's idea of evolution?

1 answer:

laila [671]3 years ago

3 0

Explanation:

Lamarck's theory of evolution, also called as theory of inheritance of acquired traits was rejected because he suggested that the acquired characteristics which an organisms acquires through its life experiences are transferred to its next generation, which is not possible since acquired characters does not bring any change to an individuals set of genes.

Answer: Traits acquired during a lifetime are not passed through offspring. (C.)

A hard-boiled egg of mass 46.0 gg moves on the end of a spring with force constant 25.6 N/mN/m . The egg is released from rest a

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

0.022kg/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of boiled egg=46 g= $\frac{46}{1000} kg=0.046 kg$

$1kg=1000 g$

Constant force=F=25.6 N/m

Initial displacement= $A_1=0.296 m$

Final displacement= $A_2=0.12 m$

Time=t=4.55 s

Damping force= $F_x=-bv_x$

We have to find the magnitude of damping constant b.

We know that the displacement of the oscillator under damping motion is given by

$x=Ae^{-\frac{b}{2m}t}cos(w't+\phi)$

For maximum displacement $cos(w't+\phi)=1$

Therefore , $x=A_2$

Substitute the values

$A_2=A_1e^{-\frac{-b}{2m}t}$

$e^{-\frac{b}{2m}t}=\frac{A_2}{A_1}$

$-\frac{b}{2m}t=ln\frac{A_2}{A_1}$

$lnx=y\implies x=e^y$

Substitute the values

$-\frac{b}{2\times 0.046}\times 4.55=ln\frac{0.12}{0.296}$

$\frac{2\times 0.046}{4.55b}=ln\frac{0.296}{0.12}$

$\frac{2\times 0.046}{4.55}=0.9b$

$b=\frac{2\times 0.46}{4.55\times 0.9}=0.022kg/s$

Hence,the magnitude of damping constant b=0.022kg/s
