Answer

• Improving the environmental performances

• Developing Green Mining technology

Explanation

The effect to the environment caused by opal mining are; impact on soils and geology, clearing of native vegetation disrupting flora and fauna, change in land use and effects of air quality.

Opal mining is currently examining environmental impacts and adopting measures that mitigate the impacts making the process less destructive to the environment.

With the current commitment to sustainability, opal companies are investing funds for Green Mining as a positive way to impact the environment before and after mining.

Joe lives 100 miles away from Bill . What is Joes average speed if he reaches Bills home in50's?
Norma-Jean [14]
Average speed= total distance divided by total time.
So our total distance here is 100miles.
And our total time is 50seconds
Average speed = 100/50
Average speed = 2 miles per second

Halley’s Comet appears around the sun about once every 76 years. It passes through the part of its orbit nearest the sun in just
Scilla [17]

Answer:

There are actually three, Kepler’s laws that is, of planetary motion: 1) every planet’s orbit is an ellipse with the Sun at a focus; 2) a line joining the Sun and a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times; and 3) the square of a planet’s orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. As it’s the third which is most often used, Kepler’s law usually means Kepler’s third law (of planetary motion).

Explanation:

Kepler's third law would tell us that Halley's comet has an average distance much greater than that of the Earth. However, there is a time in Halley's comet's orbit that brings it closer to the Sun than the Earth. Kepler's third law is a mathematical relation between a planet's period and its average distance.

6. A man is riding a bike with an acceleration of 5.0 meters per second and a mass of the bike and him combined is 20 kg. What f
KonstantinChe [14]

Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                         Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

For this man
on his bike:        Force = (20 kg) x (5 m/s²)

                                    =    100 newtons .

This is NOT the "force produced".

This is the force NEEDED in order to accelerate THAT man
and his bike at THAT rate.  If you don't have something that
can apply THAT force, then you can't create this situation,
and he'll just have to carry on, in the same direction and at
the same speed, without turning, slowing down, or speeding up.

frez [133]
Hello!

The name for continents in one landmass surrounded by gigantic ocean is Pangaea.

This name is originated from the Greek words Pan ("all") and Gaia ("Earth"). It describes the supercontinent that would have existed in the Cenozoic and Mesozoic periods by the joining of all continents that we know them today.

The gigantic ocean that surrounded it is called Panthalassa, from Greek Pan ("all") and thálassa ("sea"). 

Have a nice day!
