They are called beneficial mutations. They lead to new versions of proteins that help organisms adapt to changes in their environment. Beneficial mutations are essential for evolution to occur. They increase an organism's changes of surviving or reproducing, so they are likely to become more common over time.

Mutation is when there is a particular change in the bases of the DNA, this changes how enzymes and proteins work, and there may be a chance that this change will be helpful.

A 6.0-kg object moving at 5.0 m/s collides with and sticks to a 2.0-kg object. After the collision the composite object is movin

gogolik [260]

Answer:

a) 23 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming no external forces acting during the collision, total momentum must be conserved, as follows:

$p_{o} = p_{f} (1)$

The initial momentum p₀, can be written as follows:

$p_{o} = m_{1} * v_{1o} + m_{2}* v_{2o} = 6.0 kg * 5.0 m/s + 2.0 kg * v_{2o} (2)$

The final momentum pf, can be written as follows:

$p_{f} = (m_{1} + m_{2} )* v_{f} = 8.0 kg* (-2.0 m/s) (3)$

Since (2) and (3) are equal each other, we can solve for the only unknown that remains, v₂₀, as follows:

$v_{2o} = \frac{-6.0kg* 5m/s -8.0 kg*2.0m/s}{2.0kg} = \frac{-46kg*m/s}{2.0kg} = -23.0 m/s (4)$

This means that the 2.0-kg object was moving at 23 m/s in a direction opposite to the 6.0-kg object, so its initial speed, before the collision, was 23.0 m/s.
