The images show two different types of Galapagos tortoises that scientists believe descended from the same species. The first ty

pe (left) lives on islands that have high vegetation and few grasses. The second type (right) lives on an island that has large amounts of grasses and low-lying shrubs. What explains the differences in the second turtle's characteristics?
A. The environment triggered a gene mutation in neck length to help the second turtle survive.
B.Mutations are random, so the high number of individuals with longer necks is simply by chance.
C. turtles with genes for long necks had a better chance of surviving to reach reproductive age.
D.Turtles with short necks completely lacked adaptations for survival, so they died off.

Answer:

C. turtles with genes for long necks had a better chance of surviving to reach reproductive age.

Explanation:

The turtles that had long necks were more fit to the environmnet in which they were lovated and were able to grow larger and have more reproductive time because of their ability to feed on grass and small shrubs, this helped them always haev food available, and made them the dominant gene eventually.

Explanation:

The position vector r:

\overrightarrow{r(t)}=lcos\theta\hat{i}+lsin\theta\hat{j}

The velocity vector v:

\overrightarrow{v(t)}=\overrightarrow{\frac{dr}{dt}}=\dot{l}cos\theta-lsin\theta\dot{\theta}\hat{i}+\dot{l}sin\theta+lcos\theta\dot{\theta}\hat{j}

The acceleration vector a:

\overrightarrow{a(t)}}=cos\theta(\ddot{l}-l\dot{\theta}^2)-sin\theta(2\dot{l}\dot{\theta}+l\ddot{\theta})\hat{i}+cos\theta(2\dot{l}\dot{\theta}+l\ddot{\theta})+sin\theta(\ddot{l}-l\dot{\theta}^2)\hat{j}

\overrightarrow{v(t)}=0.13\hat{i}+0.18\hat{j}

\overrightarrow{a(t)}}=-0.3\hat{i}-0.1\hat{j}

) A 1000 kg car travelling at 50 m/s slams into a 1500 kg parked truck in an inelastic manner as
solmaris [256]

(a)

KE = m v^2 / 2 = (1200 kg)(20 m/s)^2 / 2 = 240,000 J


(b)

The energy is entirely dissipated by the force of friction in the brake system.


(c)

W = delta KE = KEf - KEi = (0 - 240,000) J = -240,000 J



(d)

Fd = delta KE

F = (delta KE) / d = (-240,000 J) / (50 m) = -4800 N

The magnitude of the friction force is 4800 N.
