Answer;

A. two glass marbles bounce off each other.

Explanation;

Elastic collisions are collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. The total system kinetic energy before the collision equals the total system kinetic energy after the collision. If total kinetic energy is not conserved, then the collision is referred to as an inelastic collision.

An elastic collision occurs when the two objects "bounce" apart when they collide. Two rubber balls are a good example. In an elastic collision, both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. Almost no energy is lost to sound, heat, or deformation.

Elastic collisions are collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved. I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Two glass marbles bounce off each other is an example of an elastic collision. Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

linear acceleration

$a = \frac{2g}{2 + \frac{R}{b}}$

angular acceleration

$\alpha = \frac{2g}{R(2 + \frac{R}{b})}$

Explanation:

As we know that the force due to tension force is upwards while weight of the disc is downwards

so we will have

$2mg - T = 2ma$

also we have

$Tb = (\frac{1}{2}mR^2 + \frac{1}{2}mR^2)\alpha$

now we have

$Tb = mR^2(\frac{a}{R})$

$T = \frac{mRa}{b}$

now we have

$2mg = (2ma + \frac{mRa}{b})$

$a(2 + \frac{R}{b}) = 2g$

so we have

linear acceleration

$a = \frac{2g}{2 + \frac{R}{b}}$

angular acceleration

$\alpha = \frac{2g}{R(2 + \frac{R}{b})}$

malfutka [58]

Answer:

The correct option is: d. Fiber-optic

Explanation:

A fiber-optic cables or an optical-fiber cable is a cable that is composed of a bundle of optical fibers. These cables are used for transmitting information or digital signals over long distances.

Each optical fiber in an optical-fiber cable is individually coated with a protective plastic cover and contained in a protective tube. Therefore, an optical-fiber cable is not affected by any electromagnetic interference or radio frequency interference.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

1. enhance learning and memory ability in nonhuman organisms.

Explanation:

Genetic engineering can be defined as the process by which scientists modify the genome of an organism using new molecular tools. The resulting organism after the modification is known as Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO).

To create this genetically modified organisms requires recombinant DNA.

Advances in genetic engineering show that it is possible to enhance learning and memory ability in nonhuman organisms through biotechnology.
