Answer:  

The theory of punctuated equilibrium is a theory of evolutionary biology that aims to explain the pattern of speciation, which is observed in the fossil records. It states that the organism is in the stasis, until a major changes cause evolutionary pressure, which leads to a rapid speciation until stability is again reached between the organism.

Example: A species of sea animals live, breed and dies from thousands of years, suddenly the sea level changes and animals adapt to that situation.

The theory of punctuated equilibrium states that is a species appear in a fossil record, they will become stable over time and can show little changes in evolution as time goes by. An example would be the feline creatures. Although cats and tigers have a different structure in their body, the facial structure and the way they hunt are similar.

A bullet of mass 0.01 kg is fired in to a sand bas of mass 0.49 kg from a tree. The Sand bag with the bullet embedded in to it s
makvit [3.9K]

Since the bag was at rest, its initial momentum is zero. The velocity of the ball before collision is 500 ms-1.

<h3>Linear momentum</h3>

The term momentum in physics refers the product of mass and velocity. If we know mass of the object and its velocity, then we calculate the momentum.

Momentum before collision for the bullet = 0.01 kg × v

Momentum before collision for the bag = 0

Momentum after collision for the bag and bullet = (0.01 kg  +  0.49 kg) 10 = 5 Kgms-1

The velocity of the bullet before collision =  0.01 kg × v + 0 =  5 Kgms-1

v = 5 Kgms-1/0.01 kg

v = 500 ms-1

A ray of light incident in air strikes a rectangular glass block of refractive index 1.50, at an angle of incidence of 45°. Calc
balandron [24]

Answer:

Approximately 28^{\circ}.

Explanation:

The refractive index of the air n_{\text{air}} is approximately 1.00.

Let n_\text{glass} denote the refractive index of the glass block, and let \theta _{\text{glass}} denote the angle of refraction in the glass. Let \theta_\text{air} denote the angle at which the light enters the glass block from the air.

By Snell's Law:

n_{\text{glass}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) = n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}}).

Rearrange the Snell's Law equation to obtain:

\begin{aligned} \sin(\theta_{\text{glass}}) &= \frac{n_{\text{air}} \, \sin(\theta_{\text{air}})}{n_{\text{glass}}} \\ &= \frac{(1.00)\, (\sin(45^{\circ}))}{1.50} \\ &\approx 0.471\end{aligned}.

Hence:

\begin{aligned} \theta_{\text{glass}} &= \arcsin (0.471) \approx 28^{\circ}\end{aligned}.

In other words, the angle of refraction in the glass would be approximately 28^{\circ}.
