Erik and anika are both running in a race. as they approach the finish line, you being the physicist that you are decide to time how long it takes them to reach the end of the race. when you start your stop watch (you can take this as time t=0 s) you notice that anika is an unknown distance d ahead of erik and both are moving with the same initial velocity vo. you also notice that erik is accelerating at a constant rate of q, while anika is deaccelerating at a constant rate of -am erik and anika meet each other for the first time at time t = t. at this time (t=ti) erik's velocity is three times that of anika's velocity, meaning vi(ti) = 3vm(ti). a) (3 points) model: list the type of model that you will use to solve this problem. b) (10 points) visualize: draw the position vs. time graph describing anika's and erik's motion from time t=0 to time t = t1. clearly label your axes and initial conditions on your graph. c) (10 points) visualize: draw the velocity vs. time graph describing anika and erik's motion from time t=0s to time t = t1. clearly label your axes and initial conditions on your graph. d) (2 points) visualize: list all known and unknown quantities. e) (15 points) solve: how long from when the stop watch was started at t=0s did it take anika and erik to meet? express your answer in terms of know quantities vo, am and aj. hint: what do we know about their velocities? f) (10 points) solve: when the stop watch started at time t= 0s, how far apart, d, were anika and erik? express your answer in terms of know quantities vo, am and a. hint: think about their positions at time t=t.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.

In the nineteenth century, gregor mendel first determined some basic rules of genetics that have been observed throughout all types of life. no observations have disproved these basic rules of genetics. charles darwin developed the idea of biological evolution around the same time, but he was unaware of mendel’s discoveries in genetics. over a century later, darwin’s idea of evolution was modified in order to incorporate mendel’s rules of genetics along with the other evidence that darwin had used. what is most likely the relationship between mendel’s rules of genetics and darwin’s idea of biological evolution? a.)mendel’s genetics states laws that are now part of the theory of biological evolution. b.)biological evolution states laws that are part of mendel’s theory of genetics. c.)mendel’s genetics replaced darwin’s entire concept of biological evolution. d.)biological evolution is a law that explains why all genetics exist.
