Answer:

Nature selects organisms with specific heritable traits to survive and reproduce

Explanation:

The Evolution Theory by natural selection dictates that organisms with specific inherited characteristics have better survival chances in the new environment.

Inheriting positive traits such as resistance to a certain disease will improve the survival chances of the organism to enable it reproduce and pass that gene to the next generation.

Sand falls from an overhead bin and accumulates in a conical pile with a radius that is always threethree times its height. Supp

hammer [34]

Answer:

159241.048 cm³/s

Explanation:

r = Radius = 3×height = 3h

h = height = 16 cm

Height of the pile increases at a rate = $\frac{dh}{dt}=22\ cm/s$

$\text{Volume of cone}=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (3h)^2h\\\Rightarrow V=3\pi h^3$

Differentiating with respect to time

$\frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=9\pi 16^2\times 22\\\Rightarrow \frac{dv}{dt}=159241.048\ cm^3/s$

∴ Rate is the sand leaving the bin at that instant is 159241.048 cm³/s

1 pts<br> How can two different nonmetals form a compound?

Molodets [167]

Explanation:

Covalent or molecular compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules. Molecular compounds are electrically neutral. Ionic compounds are (usually) formed when a metal reacts with a nonmetal (or a polyatomic ion). Covalent compounds are formed when two nonmetals react with each other.

A hammer strikes one end of a thick iron rail of length 8.80 m. A microphone located at the opposite end of the rail detects two

stepladder [879]

Answer:

ΔT = 0.02412 s

Explanation:

We will simply calculate the time for both the waves to travel through rail distance.

FOR THE TRAVELING THROUGH RAIL:

$T_{rail} = \frac{Distance}{Speed\ of\ Sound\ in\ Rail}\\\\T_{rail} = \frac{8.8\ m}{5950\ m/s}\\\\T_{rail} = 0.00148\ s$

FOR THE WAVE TRAVELING THROUGH AIR:

$T_{air} = \frac{Distance}{Speed\ of\ Sound\ in\ Air}\\\\T_{air} = \frac{8.8\ m}{343\ m/s}\\\\T_{air} = 0.0256\ s$

The separation in time between two pulses can now be given as follows:

$\Delta T = T_{air}-T_{rail} \\\Delta T = 0.0256\ s - 0.00148\ s\\$

A charge of 7.2 × 10-5 C is placed in an electric field with a strength of 4.8 × 105 StartFraction N over C EndFraction. If the

barxatty [35]

Answer:

2.2 meters

Explanation:

Potential energy, PE created by a charge, q at a radius r from the charge source, Q, is expressed as:

$KE=\frac{kQq}{r}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ ...i$

$k$ is Coulomb's constant.

#The electric field, $E$ at radius r is expressed as:

$E=\frac{kQ}{r^2}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ ...ii$

From i and ii, we have:

$KE=Eqr$

$r=(KE)/Eq$

#Substitute actual values in our equation:

$r=\frac{75J}{(7.2\times 10^{-5}C)(4.8\times 10^5 V/m)}\\\\=2.1701\approx2.2\ m$

Hence, the distance between the charge and the source of the electric field is 2.2 meters

A 1451 kg car is traveling at 48.0 km/h. How much kinetic energy does it possess? K.E. =

jarptica [38.1K]

   Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

BUT . . . in order to use this equation just the way it's written,
the speed has to be in meters per second. So we'll have to
make that conversion.

KE = (1/2) · (1,451 kg) · (48 km/hr)² · (1000 m/km)² · (1 hr/3,600 sec)²

   = (725.5) · (48 · 1000 · 1 / 3,600)² (kg) · (km·m·hr / hr·km·sec)²

   = (725.5) · ( 40/3 )² · ( kg·m² / sec²)

   = 128,978 joules (rounded)
