The correct choice is genetic drift.
genetic drift is known as the variation in alleles number within a population and it mainly happens in small population where chances of losing an alleles are larger. it is common effect observed when significant number in a population die or when there is significant reduction in birth. hence genetic drift results in loss of genetic variation
Because if you have a large population, there is a need for more food and water, but if you don't have enough food and water to support a large population, that limits it from happening
Answer:
0.8c and -0.14c
Explanation:
The first fragment will have a speed of +0.5c respect of a frame of reference moving at +0.5c
Lest name v the velocity of the frame of reference, and u' the velocity of the object respect of this moving frame of reference.
The Lorentz transform for velocity is:
u = (u' + v) / (1 + (u' * v) / c^2)
u = (0.5c + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = 0.8c
The other fragment has a velocity of u' = -0.6c respect of the moving frame of reference.
u = (-0.6v + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = -0.14c
Assuming north as positive direction, the initial and final velocities of the ball are:
(with negative sign since it is due south)
the time taken is
, so the average acceleration of the ball is given by
And the positive sign tells us the direction of the acceleration is north.
