What are the contrast of adaptation vs natural selection?

1 answer:

6 0

The difference between adaptation and natural selection is that adaptation is the characteristic while natural selection is the mechanism that increases the probability that an advantageous characteristic is passed on and becomes commonplace.

Find the direction and magnitude of Ftot, the total force exerted on her by the others, given that the magnitudes F1 and F2 are

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

θ = 36°

Explanation:

given,

F₁ = 22.8 N

F₂ = 16.6 N

magnitude of force = ?

direction of force = ?

$F = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}$

$F = \sqrt{22.8^2 + 16.6^2}$

$F = \sqrt{795.4}$

F = 28.20 N

direction

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{F_2}{F_1})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(\dfrac{16.6}{22.8})$

$\theta = tan^{-1}(0.728)$

θ = 36°

On the earth, when an astronaut throws a 0.250-kg stone vertically upward, it returns to his hand a time T later. On planet X he

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

d) g/2

Explanation:

We need to use one of Newton's equations of motion to find the position of the stone at any time t.

x(t) = x₀(t) + ut - ¹/₂at²

Where

x₀(t) = initial position of the stone.

x(t) - x₀(t) = distance traveled by the stone at any time.

u = initial velocity of the stone

a = acceleration of the stone

t = time taken

On both planets, before the stone was thrown by the astronaut, x = 0 and t = 0.

=> 0 = x₀(t)

=> x₀(t) = 0

On earth, when the stone returns into the hand of the astronaut at time T on earth, x = 0.

=> 0 = 0 + uT - ¹/₂gT² (a = g)

=> uT = ¹/₂gT²

=> g = 2u/T

On planet X, when the stone returns into the hand of the astronaut, time = 2T , x = 0.

=> 0 = 0 + u(2T) - ¹/₂a(2T)²

=> 2uT = 2aT²

=> a = u/T

By comparing we see that a = g/2.
