Think about the mice shown below. Using the space below numbered 1, describe what is happening from figure 1 to 3.​
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: Natural selection is taking place.

Explanation:

As you can see, the lighter colored mice are more visible than their surroundings, so the hawk picks them off one by one. the brown mice on the other hand are less visible, blending in with their surroundings, so they are successful, and pass on the genes that allow them to survive better.

Energy released by fusion in the sun is initially in the form of
bogdanovich [222]
Energy released by fusion in the sun is initially in the form of gamma rays.

Gamma rays arise from the radioactive decay of nuclei. They are penetrating electromagnetic radiations consisting of very high energy photons.
Gamma rays are ionizing radiations and have very serious biological dangers and hazards (due to their ability of ionizing the atoms).

The pressure in a traveling sound wave is given by the equation ΔP = (1.78 Pa) sin [ (0.888 m-1)x - (500 s-1)t] Find (a) the pre
frozen [14]

Answer:

a) P_m=1.78\ Pa

b) f=79.5775\ Hz

c) \lambda=7.076\ m

d) v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

<u>Given equation of pressure variation:</u>

\Delta P= (1.78\ Pa)\ sin\ [(0.888\ m^{-1})x-(500\ s^{-1})t]

We have the standard equation of periodic oscillations:

\Delta P=P_m\ sin\ (kx-\omega.t)

<em>By comparing, we deduce:</em>

(a)

amplitude:

P_m=1.78\ Pa

(b)

angular frequency:

\omega=2\pi.f

2\pi.f=500

∴Frequency of oscillations:

f=\frac{500}{2\pi}

f=79.5775\ Hz

(c)

wavelength is given by:

\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}

\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{0.888}

\lambda=7.076\ m

(d)

Speed of the wave is gives by:

v=\frac{\omega}{k}

v=\frac{500}{0.888}

v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}
