Punctuated equilibrium is defined as a theory in the evolutionary biology in which it states that when one specie appears in the fossil record they will become stable, and that it will only show little evolutionary change for most of their geological history. Therefore, the option that cannot be the result of punctuated equilibrium is extinction and coevolution. The correct answer is option A.

crowbar of 5 metre is used to lift an object of 800 metre if the effort arm is 200cm calculate the force applied

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

F = 5226.6 N

Explanation:

To solve a lever, the rotational equilibrium relation must be used.

We place the reference system on the fulcrum (pivot point) and assume that the positive direction is counterclockwise

F d₁ = W d₂

where F is the applied force, W is the weight to be lifted, d₁ and d₂ are the distances from the fulcrum.

In this case the length of the lever is L = 5m, t the distance desired by the fulcrum from the weight to be lifted is

d₂ = 200 cm = 2 m

therefore the distance to the applied force is

d₁ = L -d₂

d₁ = 5 -2

d₁= 3m

we clear from the equation

F = W d₂ / d₁

W = m g

F = m g d₂ / d₁

we calculate

F = 800 9.8 2/3

F = 5226.6 N

Suppose you're performing experiments in science class in which you start with 70 bacteria and the amount of bacteria triples ev

barxatty [35]

1h----------------> 70x3=210 bacteria
2h-----------------> 210*3=630 bactaeria
let be y the number of bacteria at the t=0h
it is y=70 3^0
for t= 1h
y=70*3^1=210
for t=2h
y=70*3^2=630

so we can write y=70*3^x, where x is the number of hour

One of your summer lunar space camp activities is to launch a 1090 kg rocket from the surface of the Moon. You are a serious spa

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

ΔP.E = 6.48 x 10⁸ J

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon:

g = GM/R²

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of moon = 7.36 x 10²² kg

R = Radius of Moon = 1740 km = 1.74 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

g = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(7.36 x 10²² kg)/(1.74 x 10⁶ m)²

g = 2.82 m/s²

now the change in gravitational potential energy of rocket is calculated by:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

where,

ΔP.E = Change in Gravitational Potential Energy = ?

m = mass of rocket = 1090 kg

Δh = altitude = 211 km = 2.11 x 10⁵ m

Therefore,

ΔP.E = (1090 kg)(2.82 m/s²)(2.11 x 10⁵ m)

Mike is standing on the roof of a building looking at the roof of the neighboring building that is 15 meters away and 10 meters

amid [387]

Answer:

Part a)

$t = 1.65 s$

Part b)

$x = 40.4 m$

Since the distance of other building is 15 m so YES it can make it to other building

Part c)

$v = 27.3 m/s$

direction of velocity is given as

$[tex]\theta = 26.35 degree$

Explanation:

Part a)

acceleration due to gravity on this planet is 3/4 times the gravity on earth

So the acceleration due to gravity on this new planet is given as

$a = \frac{3}{4}(9.81)$

$a = 7.36 m/s^2$

now the vertical displacement covered by the canister is given as

$y = 10 m$

now by kinematics we have

$y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$10 = \frac{1}{2}(7.36)t^2$

$t = 1.65 s$

Part b)

Horizontal speed of the canister is given as

$v_x = 24.5 m/s$

now the distance moved by it

$x = v_x t$

$x = 24.5 (1.65)$

$x = 40.4 m$

Since the distance of other building is 15 m so YES it can make it to other building

Part c)

Final velocity in X direction will remains the same

$v_x = 24.5 m/s$

final velocity in Y direction

$v_y = v_i + at$

$v_y = 0 + (7.36)(1.65)$

$v_y = 12.14 m/s$

now magnitude of velocity is given as

$v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

$v = \sqrt{24.5^2 + 12.14^2}$

$v = 27.3 m/s$

direction of velocity is given as

$\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{v_y}{v_x}$

$\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{12.14}{24.5}$

$[tex]\theta = 26.35 degree$
