Answer:

B: False

Explanation:

In the early 19th century Jean-Baptiste Lamarck proposed the first fully formed theory of evolution. Darwin's theory would come a few decades later in 1858

D=1/2at^2 <br> solve for a

nignag [31]

Answer:

a = 2d / t²

Explanation:

d = ½ at²

Multiply both sides by 2:

2d = at²

Divide both sides by t²:

a = 2d / t²

A 500 kg sack of coal falls vertically onto a 2000 kg railroad flatcar which was initially moving horizontally at 3 m/s. no exte

Zinaida [17]

Since there are no external forces, including friction, act on the flatcar. after the sack rests on the flatcar, we would assume that momentum is conserved. This means that

total momentum of car before collision = total momentum of car after collision.

Recall,

momentum = mass x velocity

From the information given,

mass of car before collision = 2000

velocity of car before collision = 3

Thus,

total momentum of car before collision = 2000 x 3 = 6000

Also,

mass of sack = 500

mass of car and sack after collision = 500 + 2000 = 2500

velocity after collision = v

momentum after collision = 2500 x v = 2500v

Since momentum is conserved, then

6000 = 2500v

v = 6000/2500

v = 2.4

the speed of the flatcar is 2.4 m/s

A rock is dropped from the edge of a cliff into a pool of water. Assume free-fall acceleration is 10 m/s per second, and air res

il63 [147K]

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

From the equation of motion,

S = ut+1/2gt²................................. Equation 1

Where S = Height, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Note: Because the rocked is being dropped from a height, acceleration due to gravity is positive (g), and initial velocity (u) is negative

Given: t = 2.0 s, g = 10 m/s², u = 0 m/s (dropped from height)

Substituting into equation 1

S = 0(2) + 1/2(10)(2)²

S = 5(4)

S = 20 m

Hence the height of the the cliff above the pool is 20 m

A hoop and a disk with uniform mass distribution have the same radius but the total masses are not known. Can they both roll dow

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

radius of hoop and the radius of disk is same = R

Let the mass of hoop is M and the mass of disk is M'.

As they reach the bottom of teh surface in same time so they travel equal distance thus, they have same acceleration.

The acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{gSin\theta }{1+\frac{I}{MR^{2}}}$

As the acceleration is same so that the moment of inertia is also same.

Moment of inertia of disk = moment of inertia of hoop

1/2 x mass of disk x R² = mass of hoop x R²

So, mass of disk = 2 x mass of hoop

Option (c) is correct.
