Blizzard [7]3 years ago

Evidence from archaeological and genetic studies suggests that maize was bred and cultivated by early inhabitants of Mexico as early as ten thousand years ago. The early Mesoamericans managed to develop corn from its grassy ancestor by selective breeding. Maize was bred from a wild grain called teosinte.

if you have ever  had shrimp and snow peas from a Chinese takeout place, that little corn on the cob, THAT was teosinte and THAT was the 'original' corn. It was small and wasn't anything like today's corn. they somehow modified it to make it bigger. This may not be the best answer but I learned this a few weeks ago and it Shocked me. :D

If you place 48 cm object 15 m in front of a convex mirror of focal length 5 m, what is the magnification of the image?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

m = 0.25

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance, u = -15cm

Height of the object, h = 48

Focal length, f = cm

We need to find the magnification of the image.

Let v is the image distance. Using mirror's equation.

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}-\dfrac{1}{(-15)}\\\\=3.75\ cm

Magnification,

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}\\\\=\dfrac{-3.75}{-15}\\\\=0.25

Hence, the magnification of the image is 0.25.

On a frozen pond, a 10.3 kg sled is given a kick that imparts to it an initial speed of vo = 1.64 m/s. The coefficient of kineti
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

d=1.07m

Explanation:

Calculate Initial Kinetic Energy:

KE = 1/2*m*v^2

KE= 0.5*(10.3kg)*(1.64m/s)^2 = 13.85J

Calculate work overcoming friction:

W = F*d = mu*m*g*d

W = (0.128)*(10.3kg)*9.80m/s^2)*d

W = 12.92*d

Equate the two since all of the kinetic energy is used up in working against friction:

W = KE

12.92d = 13.851J

Solve for d:

d= (13.851J)/(12.92) = 1.07 m

Problem 4:
Olegator [25]

Answer:

v2^2 - v1^2 = 2 g s        fundamental formula

v2 = v1 + 2 g    = v1 + 19.8         increase in velocity in 2 sec

v1^2 + 39.6 v1 + 392 - v1^2 = 2 * 9.8 * 123.1 = 2412.76

v1 = (2412.76 - 392) / 39.6 = 51.03

v2 = 51.03 + 19.6 = 70.63

T = 70.63 / .8 = 7.207 sec     time to fall height of tower

S = 1/2 g T^2 = 4.9 * 7.207^2 = 254.5 m

(Note  v2^2 - v1^2 = 70.63^2 - 51.03^2 = 2385 m

2385 / (2 * 9.8) = 122 m (close to 123.1    as was given
