Answer:

Because in a punnett square, dominant alleles need to be differentiated from the recessive alleles, to do this, we write the dominant alleles as capital letters.

Suppose you throw a baseball downward from a roof so that it initially has 120 J of gravitational potential energy, and 10 J of
Volgvan

Answer:

B.

It will be greater than 10 J.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its potential energy (PE) and its kinetic energy (KE):

E = PE + KE

According to the law of conservation of energy, when there are no frictional forces on an object, its mechanical energy is conserved.

The potential energy PE is the energy due to the position of the object: the highest the object above the ground, the highest its PE.

The kinetic energy KE is the energy due to the motion of the object: the highest its speed, the largest its KE.

Here at the beginning, when it is at the top of the roof, the baseball has:

PE = 120 J

KE = 10 J

So the total energy is

E = 120 + 10 = 130 J

As the ball falls down, its potential energy decreases, since its height decreases; as a result, since the total energy must remain constant, its kinetic energy increases (as its speed increases).

Therefore, when the ball reaches the ground, its kinetic energy must be greater than 10 J.

You stand on a straight desert road at night and observe a vehicle approaching. This vehicle is equipped with two small headligh
spayn [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Reyleigh's criteria. Here the resolution of the eye is defined as 1.22 times the wavelength over the diameter of the eye. Mathematically this is,

\theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{D}

Here,

D is diameter of the eye

D = \frac{1.22 (539nm)}{5.11 mm}

D= 1.287*10^{-4}m

The angle that relates the distance between the lights and the distance to the lamp is given by,

Sin\theta = \frac{d}{L}

For small angle, sin\theta = \theta

sin \theta = \frac{d}{L}

Here,

d = Distance between lights

L = Distance from eye to lamp

For small angle sin \theta = \theta

Therefore,

L = \frac{d}{sin\theta}

L = \frac{0.691m}{1.287*10^{-4}}

L = 5367m

Therefore the distance is 5.367km.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

a)  R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²) , b)  ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L

Explanation:

a) The resistance of a material is given by

          R = ρ l / A

where ρ is the resistivity, l is the length and A is the area

the length is l = L and the resistivity is ρ = ρ₀

the area is the area of ​​the cylindrical shell

           A = π r_b² - π r_a²

           A = π (r_b² - r_a²)

we substitute

         R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²)

b) The potential difference is related to current and resistance by ohm's law

         V = i R

         

we subsist the expression of resistance

          V = I ρ₀ L /π (r_b² - R_a²)

           ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L
