Discuss why Wolpert says we have a brain.

Physics

Answer:

“We have a brain for one reason and one reason only, and that's to produce adaptable and complex movements,” stated Wolpert, Director of the Computational and Biological Learning Lab at the University of Cambridge. ... The evidence for this is in how well we've learned to mimic our movements using computers and robots.

Answer:

Wolpert argues that the only reason we evolved our brains is because we had to move, not because we had to think or feel. This is a fun and thought-provoking talk that may get you thinking about your brain in a markedly different way

ANSWER

Mass: The resistance of an object to acceleration, size-dependent

Volume: The amount of space an object occupies

Boiling point: The temperature at which a liquid boils and turns to vapor.

Melting point: The temperature at which a solid melts and turns to liquid

Density: Size-independent

Solubility: The ability of a substance (solvent) to dissolve when placed in a liquid (solute)

Magnetism: Size-dependent

EXPLANATION:

Mass: the more mass something has, the harder it is to accelerate. This is somewhat intuitive, but is also demonstrated in newton's third law. It's size-dependent because for an object of a given density, the size (volume) will change the mass.

Volume: big objects take up more space. If you put an apple in bucket filled to the brim with water, a little water will splash out, because the apple is now occupying the space that the water used to, but if you put in a watermelon, a lot of water will splash out, because the watermelon is taking up even more space.

Boiling point: when a liquid gets too hot, it will change to gas (example: water to steam)

Melting point: when a liquid gets too cold, it will change to a solid (example: water to ice)

Density: how much mass there is in a given volume. A sphere made of lead will have more mass than a sphere made of wood, even if they are the same size. Size-independent because a big lead sphere has the same density as a small lead sphere, they just have different masses.

Solubility: some substances dissolve in certain solvents, other's don't.

Magnetism: size-dependent because a bigger magnet is stronger than a smaller one if they are identical in every other way. More space means more domains means a stronger magnet.

An object, with a final position of x = 100.1 meters, initially started at x = -12.13 meters. What was its displacement? (Unit =
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

112.23 m

Explanation:

Displacement is the final position minus the initial position.

Δx = x − x₀

Δx = 100.1 m − (-12.13 m)

Δx = 112.23 m

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is:
NeTakaya

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is the centripetal acceleration.

So, by Newton's laws, we know that an object moving with a given velocity will remain in constant motion with a constant velocity until we apply an acceleration.

So we define acceleration as the rate of change of the velocity, also remember that velocity is a vector (has magnitude and direction), so, if there is a change the direction of the velocity, we have an acceleration that causes that.

In circular motion, the velocity vector is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle, and it can only be possible if the velocity direction is changing constantly. This will happen because of something called centripetal acceleration.

This acceleration points radially inwards (to the center of the circle) so is also perpendicular to the velocity of the moving object, and this is what causes the constant change in the direction of the velocity of the moving object.

Just to give an example, if you have a string with a mass on one end, and with your hand, you rotate the mass (from the string), the tension of the string would be the centripetal acceleration.
