By using the fact that the two triangles are similar, we will conclude that the height of the tree is 30ft

<h3>How tall is the tree?</h3>

If the two triangles are similar, then the quotient between the height and the shadow length must be the same for both of them.

Then if H is the height of the tree we can write:

H/27ft = 5ft/4.5ft

Now we can solve this for H, we will get:

H = (5ft/4.5ft)*27ft = 30ft

So we can conclude that the height of the tree is 30ft.

1) Chemistry

(a)they have intermolecular forces between molecules

(b) collisions aren't always elastic (also due to intermolecular forces) (c) gas molecules have volume.

2) CHEMISTRY

Charles's law (also known as the law of volumes) is an experimental gas law that describes how gases tend to expand when heated. A modern statement of Charles's law is: When the pressure on a sample of a dry gas is held constant, the Kelvin temperature and the volume will be in direct proportion.

3) AGRIC

bush burning creates soil that is lacking in nitrogen. Micronutrients, normally present in soil with decomposing vegetable matter, are lacking in soils after a fire. The combustion process of bush burning also increases soil's pH.

4) Data processing

5) ELECTRICITY GENERATION

Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. Other energy sources include solar photovoltaics and geothermal power.

6) BIOLOGY

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat or light.

Mademuasel [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You need four paragraphs that include the introduction, then two bodies, and finally, a conclusion about the Coronavirus crisis,

You also want a comparison and contrast between traditional school and online learning in the same body of the essay, right?

Ok, here we go.

Introduction.

The actual Pandemic cam to transform many aspects of modern life. In a time when people thought they had everything covered and that modernity and technology soul do everything, society realized the way humans are still very vulnerable. The pandemic changed the world in many forms.

1st paragraph

The pandemic caught people off-guard. Governments paralyzed. They never considered a situation like this. People suffered from the health crises that arose. The economy suffered, education suffered, and we have to promptly react to make things happen and continue to live and progress.

2nd paragraph

In the case of education, we found some answers in technology. Video classes were a partial solution in developed countries where people can afford a computer and internet. But what about most of the countries, where not all the families can afford this. Even in the US, when most of the people can, there are many social sectors and minority groups that missed the year. And it was proved, learning is not the same when you attend classes through video conferences. Education needs human contact, the possibility to stand in front of the class and demonstrate that you learned. That you really know how to think, how to act, how to prove things.

Conclusion.

We're still suffering the effects of the pandemic worldwide. Some countries are heading quickly to the solution. Most are still suffering. The pandemic confirmed what we always knew. That the world is full of inequality. Although the pandemic changed the world in many forms, the inequality and poverty of the many did not change. It is worse.
