A glass ball with a shiny coating acts like a mirror. The ball has a diameter of 10cm. You hold the ball away from you at arm’s length and look at your reflection. If the nose on your face is 1.1 meters from the mirror surface, calculate the image distance and the magnification

As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. when you push the platform, you compress the springs. you do an amount of work of 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 m from their uncompressed length. (a) what magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? (b)how much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?

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.
