used cross breeding to purposely breed plan

studied a variety of pea plant traits

studied several generations of plants

In order to breed or cross one plant with another, Mendel opened the petals and removed the anthers from the flower and dusted the pistil with pollen from the plant he wished to cross it with and covered the flower with a small bag to prevent the pollen in the air from landing in the pistil. This process is called cross pollination.

Mendel considered 7 characters of pea plant for his study and did the study for several generations.

Beings on spherical asteroid have observed that a large rock is approaching their asteroid in a collision course. At 7514 km fro

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

c. $4.582\times10^{21} kg$

Explanation:

$r_{i}$ = Initial distance between asteroid and rock = 7514 km = 7514000 m

$r_{f}$ = Final distance between asteroid and rock = 2823 km = 2823000 m

$v_{i}$ = Initial speed of rock = 136 ms⁻¹

$v_{f}$ = Final speed of rock = 392 ms⁻¹

$m$ = mass of the rock

$M$ = mass of the asteroid

Using conservation of energy

Initial Kinetic energy of rock + Initial gravitational potential energy = Final Kinetic energy of rock + Final gravitational potential energy

$(0.5) m v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{i}} = (0.5) m v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{i}} = (0.5) v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) (136)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(7514000)} = (0.5) (392)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(2823000)} \\M = 4.582\times10^{21} kg$

A Porsche challenges a Honda to a 400 m race. Because the Porsche's acceleration of 3.4 m/s2 is larger than the Honda's 3.0 m/s2

padilas [110]

Answer:

Winner wins by 0.969 s

Explanation:

For the Porche:

Given:

Displacement of Porsche s = 400 m

Acceleration of Porsche a = 3.4 m/s^2

From Newton's second equation of motion,

$s = ut + (1/2) a t^2$ (u = 0 as the car was initially at rest)

Substituting the values into the equation, we have

$t^2 = (2 * 400) / 3.4$

= 235.29 / 3.4

t = 15.33 s

For the Honda:

Displacement of Honda = 310 m

Acceleration of Honda = 3 m/s^2

Applying Newton's second equation of motion

$s = ut + (1/2) a t^2$ (u = 0 for same reason)

Substituting the values into the equation, we obtain

$t^2 = (2 * 310) / 3$

= 620 / 3

t = 14.37 s

Hence

The winner (honda) wins by a time interval of = 15.33 - 14.37

=0.969 s
