In 1999 confusion between the use of the English and metric systems resulted in the loss of the Mars Climate Orbiter, which was

intended to study that planet’s water history. How could costly mistakes like this be avoided in the future?

Agree on using one system. That way no one would be confused by the measurements and everyone would have the same calculations without having to painfully convert. Preferably the metric since it was designed to be easy

When Europeans arrived, the white and red pine that grew near the jack pine plains, were logged and then all the pine acreage wa
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Deforestation negatively impacts the <u>carbon cycle</u> as <u>trees</u> play an important role in <u>balancing the amount of carbon in the atmosphere</u>.

Explanation:

Deforestation is one of the most damaging activities to the environment due to different reasons but mainly because it releases important amounts of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere due to the logging and burning of forests and also leads to the reduction of fauna populations because of habitat destruction.

In this case, cutting white and red pines and then setting a pine acreage on fire disrupts the carbon cycle because:

a) [As stated above] <u>Trees play an important role in balancing the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere</u><u> as there is less photosynthesis carried out by plants - important part of the carbon cycle.</u>

b) <u>When </u><u>trees (wood) are burned, the carbon that was formerly stored is released into the atmosphere as CO2,</u> leading to another disruption in the carbon cycle.

Suppose the cells of a tumor are idealized as spheres each with a radius of 5 mum ​(micrometers). The number of cells has a doub
loris [4]

Answer:

1044.3 days

Explanation:

Given,

Radius of sphere shaped cells of tumor = 5 micrometer

1 centimeter = 10,000 micrometers

Thus, radius of sphere in centimeters

= \frac{5}{10,000} \\

Volume of a sphere

= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Volume of one cell of tumor

\frac{4}{3} *(3.14)*(\frac{5}{10,000})^{3}\\= {5.23 * 10^{-10} centimeter cube

As we know ,

N(t) = N(0) e^{-kt}\\\\k = \frac{ln2}{35}\\ k = 0.0198 day^{-1}\\

Substituting all the given values in above equation, we get -

0.2 = 5.23 * 10^{-10} * e^{-0.0198*t}\\t = 1044.3 days
