Which of the following is not a part of the modern theory of evolution?

a) diversity exists within a species, and "experiments" that tend to promote diversity sometimes occur during reproduction.
b) a "successful experiment" during reproduction is one that increases the ability of an individual to have children who survive to have children.
c) children are more similar to their parents than to other individuals from their parents’ generation.
d) evolution proceeds in the direction desired by members of a generation.
e) if a reproductive "experiment" is successful, it will be passed to more and more children in successive generations until all members of a population have it.

A33.1 g copper object is launched from a 1.5 m 30° steel incline positioned on the floor by being pulled up a string attached to a 50.0 g mass suspended vertically over a pulley. the object is projected towards a glass table where it lands when it is at the point along its trajectory with the lowest speed. it comes to a halt when it clears the opposite edge of the table. it then falls and lands on 9 physics texts each 5 cm thick that are stacked on the floor on the opposite side of the table. assume that the table does not have a ledge and the rectangular object experiences 0.05 n of air resistance as it falls towards the books. how far and how long did the object travel and how fast does it hit the books. assume that at the moment the copper object leaves the incline, the massless string and ideal pulley break off
