An astronaut visiting Jupiter's satellite Europa leaves a canister of 1.20 mol of nitrogen gas (28.0 g/mol) at 20.0 ∘C on the satellite's surface. Europa has no significant atmosphere, and the acceleration due to gravity at its surface is 1.30 m/s2. The canister springs a leak, allowing molecules to escape from a small hole. Neglect the interaction with surrounding atmosphere. (a) What is the maximum height (in km) above Europa's surface that is reached by a nitrogen molecule whose speed equals the rms speed? Assume that the molecule is shot straight up out of the hole in the canister, and ignore the variation in g with altitude. (b) The escape speed from Europa is 2025 m/s. Can any of the nitrogen molecules escape from Europa and into space?

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.
