The correct answer is B. Medicines

Explanation:

Trees are valuable natural resources used to obtain food through edible fruits, roots, etc and also to obtain lumber that is used to build structures, furniture, among others. Besides this, trees are valuable because it is possible to obtain medicinal substances from these. For example, willow bark can be used to treat fever, and pain because the substance in it acts similarly to aspirin. This makes thousand of tree species to be used in the process of creating medicines. Thus, besides food and lumber trees provided substances that help make medicines.

An object–spring system undergoes simple harmonic motion. If the amplitude increases but the mass of the object is not changed,
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

doesn't change (d)

Explanation:

The total energy in a system is the sum of Kinetic and Potential energies in a system, assuming that energy is not lost to an external procedure. Now, let us define what potential and kinetic energies are:

Potential Energy: this is energy at rest or stored energy

Kinetic Energy: this is energy in motion

In a simple harmonic motion of a mass-spring system, there is no dissipative force, hence the total energy is equal to the potential and kinetic energies. The total energy is not changed rather, it varies between potential and kinetic energies depending on the point at which the mass is. The kinetic energy is greatest at the point of lowest amplitude (highest velocity) and lowest at the point of greatest amplitude (lowest velocity), while potential energy is greatest at the point of highest amplitude (lowest velocity) and lowest at the point of smallest amplitude ( highest velocity). However, at every point, the sum of kinetic and potential energies equals total energy.

A skater of mass 40 kg is carrying a box of mass 5 kg. The skater has a speed of 5 m/s with respect to the floor and is gliding
Yuki888 [10]

For the part a) we need only the momentum of the box and we have the data to find it.

Momentum is given by,

p=mv

where clearly, p is the momentum, m the mass of the box and v is the velocity.

Substituting,

p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s

For part b) we need an analysis of the situation. We understand that the box on a surface that has no friction will continue to rotate at the same speed previously defined. The box can only stop with friction, so,

p=(5kg)(5m/s)\\p=25kg.m/s

<em>It is the same that part a)</em>

An observation which is descriptive is considered
oksano4ka [1.4K]
A descriptive observation may very well be a mixture of both quantitative and qualitative as it can utilize elements of both types. Qualitative deals with the kinds of observations that cannot be measured in numerical form. Quantitative data is just that.

Air is warmed and moisten as it moves through both the mouth and nasal passages.
Alexxx [7]

Well, in my own personal case, I can actually move the air in either
direction through both of those.

When I move the air inward from the outside, it's warmed and moistened.

When I move it outward from the inside, it's not.
