Answer:

Obtaining

Explanation:

<u>VERY VERY biased question and answers....</u>

 Wind turb<u>i</u>nes do significant damage to the environment.....from all of the mining required to obtain rare earth metals for the generator magnets to the non-recyclable blades to the enormous amounts of concrete required in pedestal construction ( mega - co2 emissions to make the concrete) to the transportation costs to the construction site  .   The also kill a significant number of birds and bats  AND contribute to noise pollution.  They ALSO require significant investment/costs/construction of transmission lines across the land to get from where the wind is to where the electricity is used.....  They are NOT great....but I think the answer they want you to spout is the second one.    But do not be brainwashed into believing they can replace fossil fuels.

How far from the earth must a body be along a line toward the sun so that the sun’s
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

r = 1.63×10^5 mi

Explanation:

Let r = distance of object from earth

Rs = distance between earth and sun

Ms = mass of the sun

= 3.24×10^5 Me (Me = mass of earth)

At a distance R from earth, the force Fs exerted by the sun on the object is equal to the force Fe exerted by the earth on the object. Using Newton's universal law of gravitation,

Fs = Fe

GmMs/(Rs - r)^2 = GmMe/r^2

This simplifies to

Ms/(Rs - r)^2 = Me/r^2

(3.24×10^5 Me)/(Rs - r)^2 = Me/r^2

Taking the reciprocal and then its square root, this simplifies further to

Rs - r = (569.2)r ----> Rs = 570.2r

or

r = Rs/570.2 = (9.3×10^7 mi)/570.2

= 1.63×10^5 mi

How do you find the water pressure at the bottom of the 55-m-high water tower?
svp [43]
-- What's the volume of a cylinder with radius=1m and height=55m ?

         ( Volume of a cylinder = π R² h )

-- How much does that volume of water weigh ?

            1 liter of water = 1 kilogram of mass
            Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) 

-- What's the area of the bottom of that 1m-radius cylinder ?

       Pressure  =  (force) / (area)
