The population comes to be dominated by smaller, slower-growing individuals
Answer:
Heat is transfered via solid material (conduction), liquids and gases (convection), and electromagnetical waves (radiation).
Explanation:
Answer:
See the explanation below
Explanation:
The speed of sound waves can be calculated using the following equation:
![v_{s}=\sqrt{\frac{E}{ro} } \\where:\\E = Young's modulus [GPa]\\ro = density of the material [kg/m^3]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_%7Bs%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7BE%7D%7Bro%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5CE%20%3D%20Young%27s%20modulus%20%5BGPa%5D%5C%5Cro%20%3D%20density%20of%20the%20material%20%5Bkg%2Fm%5E3%5D)
Let's do the exercise of comparing two materials one denser than the other, as is steel and aluminum
ro_steel = 7500 [kg/m^3]
ro_aluminum = 2700 [kg/m^3]
E_steel = 200 [GPa]
E_aluminum = 70 [GPa]
Now replacing the values in the equation for each material.
![v_{steel}=\sqrt{\frac{200*10^9}{7500}}\\ v_{steel}=5163[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_%7Bsteel%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B200%2A10%5E9%7D%7B7500%7D%7D%5C%5C%20v_%7Bsteel%7D%3D5163%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
And for the aluminum
![v_{aluminum}=\sqrt{\frac{70*10^9}{2700} }\\ v_{aluminum}=5091.75[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_%7Baluminum%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B70%2A10%5E9%7D%7B2700%7D%20%7D%5C%5C%20v_%7Baluminum%7D%3D5091.75%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
In this way we can see that sound propagates faster in denser materials.
#3). Your drawing in the lower right corner is correct. You're headed down the right road, but ran out of gas and just stopped.
Radius of the circle = 1.5 km
Circumference of the whole circle = (2·π·radius) = 9.42 km
Distance = 3/4 of the way around it = 7.07 km .
Displacement = the straight line from the West point to the North point. The straight-line length is 2.12 km; the straight-line direction from start to finish is Northeast (45°). I'll let you figure out why these numbers.
#4). What if you walk 1 mile East and then 1 mile West ? You got a good workout, and you're back home where you started ! Your distance is 2 miles, and your displacement is zero.
The whale had a good workout too. She swam (6.9 + 1.8 + 3.7) = 12.4 km. She's sweating and tired. Her total distance during that workout is 12.4 km.
Her displacement is the line from start-point to end-point. How she got there doesn't matter, so swimming 1 km East and then swimming 1 km West cancel out, and have no effect on the displacement.
(6.9E + 1.8W + 3.7E) = (10.6 E) + (1.8 W) . . . That adds up to 8.8 East ! That's where she ends up. That's her displacement ... 8.8 km East of where she started. Since we're only talking about displacement, we don't care HOW she got there. She might have been swimming big 20-km circles all day. We don't know. All we know is that she ended up 8.8 km East of where she started.
Answer:
When charged particles from the sun strike atoms in Earth's atmosphere, they cause electrons in the atoms to move to a higher-energy state. When the electrons drop back to a lower energy state, they release a photon: light. This process creates the beautiful aurora, or northern lights.
