How is momentum conserved in which two satellites connect

Biology
1 answer:
creativ13 [48]4 years ago
4 0
If we have:
m₁ as the mass of the first satellite
m₂ as the mass of the second satellite
v₁ as the velocity of the first satellite before the connection
v₂ as the velocity of the second satellite before the connection
v₁' as the velocity of the first satellite after the connection
v₂' as the velocity of the second satellite after the connection

The momentum is conserved following this equation:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

If the collision is perfectly elastic or the two satellites connect perfectly and move with a single velocity:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v'
where v' is the velocity of the two connected satellites

<h2>Evolutionary analysis of organisms</h2>

Explanation:

  • Some organisms, which were characterized together determined to genetically very different .
  • Using the analysis of RNA developed by Carl Woese, scientists are now able to classify  the human evolution
  • living things based on genetic information instead of expressed characteristics.
  • Genetic  information is more specific and can give clues as to the evolutionary ancestry of  organisms.
  • That is the reason adding of various domains in previous system of classification is allowed for a comparison of species genetic code
