Answer: 1.D) Soil erosion will increase.

Explanation: Deforestation is the phenomena of removal of trees and clear cutting of the forest region so as to obtain the land for urban infrastructure, wood for furniture and for other needs. The deforestation will likely to increase and cause soil erosion due to urbanization. As, trees bind the soil with their roots which prevent the loss of soil due to erosion.

2. A) erosion

Explanation:

A clear cut logging can be define as the removal of the forested land where most of the trees are logged off. The removal of the trees from the roots will directly cause the erosion of the soil due to physical agents such as water and wind. This will deteriorate the quality of soil.

An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 16 and a cutoff ratio of 2. At the beginning of the compression process,

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$a.T_3=1723.8kPa\\b.n=0.563\\c.MEP=674.95kPa$

Explanation:

a. Internal energy and the relative specific volume at $s_1$ are determined from A-17: $u_1=214.07kJ/kg, \ \alpha_r_1=621.2$ .

The relative specific volume at $s_2$ is calculated from the compression ratio:

$\alpha_r_2=\frac{\alpha_r_1}{r}\\=\frac{621.2}{16}\\=38.825$

#from this, the temperature and enthalpy at state 2, $s_2$ can be determined using interpolations $T_2=862K$ and $h_2=890.9kJ/kg$ . The specific volume at $s_1$ can then be determined as:

$\alpha_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times 300}{95} m^3/kg\\0.906316m^3/kg$

Specific volume, $s_2$ :

$\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha_1}{r}\\=\frac{0.906316}{16}m^3/kg\\=0.05664m^3/kg$

The pressures at $s_2 \ and\ s_3$ is:

$P_2=P_3=\frac{RT_2}{\alpha_2}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times862}{0.05664}\\=4367.06kPa$

.The thermal efficiency=> maximum temperature at $s_3$ can be obtained from the expansion work at constant pressure during $s_2-s_3$

$\bigtriangleup \omega_2_-_3=P(\alpha_3-\alpha_2)\\R(T_3-T_2)=P\alpha(r_c-1)\\T_3=T_2+\frac{P\alpha_2}{R}(r_c-1)\\\\=(862+\frac{4367\times 0.05664}{0.287}(2-1))K\\=1723.84K$

b.Relative SV and enthalpy at $s_3$ are obtained for the given temperature with interpolation with data from A-17 : $a_r_3=4.553 \ and\ h_3=1909.62kJ/kg$

Relative SV at $s_4$ is

$a_r_4=\frac{r}{r_c}\alpha _r_3$

= $=\frac{16}{2}\times4.533\\=36.424$

Thermal efficiency occurs when the heat loss is equal to the internal energy decrease and heat gain equal to enthalpy increase;

$n=1-\frac{q_o}{q_i}\\=1-\frac{u_4-u_1}{h_3-h_2}\\=1-\frac{65903-214.07}{1909.62-890.9}\\=0.563$

Hence, the thermal efficiency is 0.563

c. The mean relative pressure is calculated from its standard definition:

$MEP=\frac{\omega}{\alpa_1-\alpa_2}\\=\frac{q_i-q_o}{\alpha_1(1-1/r)}\\=\frac{1909.62-890.9-(65903-214.7)}{0.90632(1-1/16)}\\=674.95kPa$

Hence, the mean effective relative pressure is 674.95kPa

A physical system that is isolated from its environment is:

kompoz [17]

Closed

Explanation:

A physical system that is isolated from its environment is said to be a closed system.

In a closed system, energy can be exchange but matter cannot be exchanged.

A closed system sightly permits the only certain types of exchange.
These systems are usually used to control and limit the impact of the environment on a system.
Experiments can be conducted on the premises of any the interactions.

How to use kinetic energy to calculate velocity

BartSMP [9]

As we know the formula of kinetic energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

here given that

KE = 150,000 J

mass = 120 kg

we can use this to find speed

$150,000 = \frac{1}{2} * 120 * v^2$

$v^2 = 2500$

$v = 50 m/s$

So speed of above object is 50 m/s

A circus act involves a trapeze artist and a baby elephant. They are going to balance on a teeter-totter that is 10 meters long

elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

Balance point will be achieved as soon as the weight of the baby elephant creates torque equal to torque created by weight of woman about the pivot. torque by weight of woman

weight x distance from pivot

= 500x 5

= 2500 Nm

torque by weight of baby woman , d be distance of baby elephant from pivot at the time of balance

= 2500x d

for equilibrium

2500 d = 2500

d = 1 m

So elephant will have to walk up to 1 m close to pivot or middle point.
