A few people criticized Darwin for his theory, such as the left-leaning biologists Stephen Jay Gould and Richard Lewontin, who fear the political implications of Darwinian theory. They fear that evolutionary theory, even when bolstered by modern genetics, and molecular biology, does not make reality probable enough.

Answer:

When Charles Darwin published his 1859 book On the Origin of Species, he convinced most of the scientific community that new species arise through descent through modification in a branching pattern of divergence from common ancestors, but while most scientists accepted natural selection as a valid and empirically ...

Flauer [41]

To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations. We will find the two components of velocity and finally by geometric and vector relations we will find both the angle and the magnitude of the vector. In the case of horizontal speed we have to

v_x = \frac{x}{t}

v_x = \frac{67}{4.5}

v_x = 14.89m/s

The vertical component of velocity is

-h = v_y t -\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here,

h = Height

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = Time

v_y = Vertical component of velocity

-1.23 = v_y(4.5)-\frac{1}{2} (9.8)(4.5)^2

-1.23= 4.5v_y - 99.225

v_y = 21.77m/s

The direction of the velocity will be given by the tangent of the components, then

tan\theta = \frac{v_y}{v_x}

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{21.77}{14.89})

\theta = 55.59\°

The magnitude is given vectorially as,

|V| = \sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}

|V| = \sqrt{14.89^2 +21.77^2}

|V| = 26.37m/s

Therefore the angle is 55.59° and the velocity is 26.37m/s

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

charge, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

distance, r = 911 nm = 911 x 10^-9 m

The Coulomb's force is given by

F=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r^{2}}

F=\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{\left (911\times 10^{-9}  \right )^2}

F = 2.78 x 10^-16 N

The force between the electron and the proton is 2.78 x 10^-16 N.

How can we protect space shuttles or astronauts from space radiation in the absence of the atmospheric layer?
Arisa [49]
Earth's protective magnetic bubble, called the magnetosphere, deflects most solar particles, but in the absence of atmospheric layer, Polyethylene is a good shielding material because it has high hydrogen content, and hydrogen atoms are good at absorbing and dispersing radiation.

The Earth’s atmospheres are kept in place by gravity. The air near the ground is pulled on by gravity and compressed by the air higher in the sky. This causes the air near the ground to be denser and creating different layers with different qualities in which are the atmosphere.

Hope that helps ^^

The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is less than that on Earth. On Mars, a person will weigh than on Earth.
pantera1 [17]
On mars people would way less. 
An example of this is that if I weighed 700 pounds (I don't by the way) I would then weigh 500 pounds or less.

Q.3. The equivalent resistance across AB is:<br> (a)1<br> (c)2<br> (b)3<br> (d)4
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

1 ohm

Explanation:

First of all, the equivalent resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in parallel is given by:

1 / Eq = (1 / r₁) + (1 / r₂)

The equivalent resistance for resistance for two resistors (r₁ and r₂) in series is given by:

Eq = r₁ + r₂

Hence as we can see from the circuit diagram, 2Ω // 2Ω, and 2Ω // 2Ω, hence:

1/E₁ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₁ = 1

E₁ = 1Ω

1/E₂ = 1/2 + 1/2

1/E₂ = 1

E₂ = 1Ω

This then leads to E₁ being in series with E₂, hence the equivalent resistance (E₃) of E₁ and E₂ is:

E₃ = E₁ + E₂ = 1 + 1 = 2Ω

The equivalent resistance (Eq) across AB is the parallel combination of E₃ and the 2Ω resistor, therefore:

1/Eq = 1/E₃ + 1/2

1/Eq = 1/2 + 1/2

1/Eq = 1

Eq = 1Ω
