Industrial toxic spills harm the environment in many ways, for example, when there's any oil or chemical spill in coastal waters it may result in the destruction of wildife habitat and ultimately killing and harming a lot of species, also industrial toxic spills can end up in our food chain because if the contamination spreads enough to reach any marine animal humans consume daily it can affect our health, a very good example of this is the presence of mercury in tuna experienced in some countries. Another huge harm toxic spills cause is the uninhabitability of some areas regarding flora and fauna due to the chemical spill spreading to soft, vulnerable soil causing severe and in most cases hardly reversible.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

It take 1.7 hours to cover distance between Saint Louis and Albuquerque and Distance from Albuquerque to Phoenix is 1815 miles

Explanation:

Distance between Pittsburgh to Saint Louis = 550 miles

Time taken to cover Distance between Pittsburgh to Saint Louis = 1 hour

Speed of airplane = $\frac{Distance}{Time}=550 miles/hr$

The distance between Saint Louis and Albuquerque is 935 miles.

Time taken to cover distance between Saint Louis and Albuquerque = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{935}{550}=1.7 hours$

Time taken to cover distance from Albuquerque to Phoenix = 3 hours 18 minutes

Distance from Albuquerque to Phoenix = $Speed \times time = 550 \times (3+\frac{18}{60})=550 \times 3.3=1815 miles$

Hence It take 1.7 hours to cover distance between Saint Louis and Albuquerque and Distance from Albuquerque to Phoenix is 1815 miles
