Explain how fossil fuel use in the US makes us vulnerable to the demands of foreign countries.

2 answers:

4 0

Well the US doesn't naturally have a lot of fossil fuels so we rely on other countries who do have fossil fuels. So if we aren't that friendly with Saudia Arabia (they have a bunch of oil) then they can hike up the prices or cut us off from their oil supply completely which would cripple the US severly. So with that being said, we NEED other countries, and the big question is when will they not NEED us. At any point in which they feel that they don't need us they can just cut us off, which would be bad.

Hope that helps :)

Answer:

The United States imports much of its petroleum from foreign countries who can set the price. This leaves the United States vulnerable to price spikes and artificial shortages as happened during the 1970's oil crisis.

a car moving with a speed of 10 metre per second is accelerator at the rate of 2 metre per second square find its velocity after

STatiana [176]

a = ( v(2) - v(1) ) ÷ ( t(2) - t(1) )

2 = ( v(2) - 10 ) ÷ ( 6 - 0 )

2 × 6 = v(2) - 10

v(2) = 12 + 10

v(2) = 22 m/s

Two objects exert a gravitational force of 3 N on one another when they are 10 m apart. What would that force be if the distance

jeka94

Gravitational force = G ( m1 m2 ) / r²
3 = G ( m1 m2 ) / ( 10 )²x = G ( m1 m2 ) / ( 5 )²We shall divide those two equations:3 / x = 1/100 / 1/25 = 25 / 100 = 1 / 4x · 1 = 3 · 4x = 12Answer:C. 12 N

Distanţa Buzău - Iaşi este de 72 km . Aflaţi timpul în care un autovehicul parcurge această distanţă, dacă are viteza de 72 km p

GrogVix [38]

The distance from Buzău to Iaşi is 72 km. Find out the time a vehicle travels this distance if it has a speed of 72 km per hour. Expresses the speed in the unit of measurement in SI. I give the crown! Thank you

Answer:

3600seconds

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance = 72km

Speed = 72km/hr

Unknown:

Time it takes for the vehicle to travel the distance = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance divided by time;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

time = $\frac{distance}{speed }$

Insert the parameters;

time = $\frac{72}{72}$ = 1hr

The SI unit of time is in seconds;

3600 seconds is 1hr

The time is 3600seconds
