Answer:

Just in 1 dimension  

Vpg = Vps + Vsg

Where

Vpg= relative to the ground

Vps= person relative to the ship

Vsg= ship relative to the ground

Vpg= Vps+Vsg ;

Vpg= 0.5 + 6  

Vpg= 6,5 m/s

What is the net force of an object with a mass of 90.0 and accelerating at 3.0 m/s
Ksivusya [100]

The net force is 270 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law, which states that the net force on an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

F=ma

where

F is the force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this problem, we have

m = 90.0 kg

a=3.0 m/s^2

Substituting, we find the net force on the object:

F=(90.0)(3.0)=270 N

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10^5 Pa. People can normally snorkel down to a depth of roughly one meter. What
natulia [17]

Answer:

1.01 × 10⁵ Pa  

Explanation:

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa.

We need to find the total pressure on the air in the lungs of a person to a depth of 1 meter.

Pressure at a depth is given by :

P=\rho gh

Where

\rho is the density of air, \rho=1.225\ kg/m^3

So,

P=1.225\times 9.8\times 1\\\\=12\ Pa

Total pressure, P = Atmospheric pressure + 12 Pa

= 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa + 12 Pa

= 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa

Hence, the total pressure is 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa.

What effect do increasing amounts of greenhouse gases have on earth and the organisms that live here?
pickupchik [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The increasing amounts of greenhouse gases causes climate change and global warming, sea level rises and oceans become warmer.

When prolonged into the future and no actions are being taken; drastic droughts will happen which threatens agricultural in an extreme manner, wildlife living in the forests will be pressurized, and animals/organisms living in the ocean will be affected too due to rising temperature causing the reduced Oxygen effects.

The examples include: the melting of Arctic ice endangering the polar bears, fishes and aquatic marines will die at part of the oceans which has higher temperature (lack of oxygen), poorer regions will have adverse impacts on the human being due to agriculture deterioration and lack of proper system and social readiness to adapt to climate change.

To fight climate change, we must reduce carbon pollution (burning of coals which releases large carbon dioxide/monoxide etc.) through setting up of policies by multinational companies, greener business to reduce emissions, and help people to adapt to climate change or at least educate people about climate change.
