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.

ozzi

Answer:

\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}  \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}

Explanation:

Let the length of the string is L.

Let T be the tension in the string.

Resolve the components of T.

As the charge q is in equilibrium.

T Sinθ = Fe       ..... (1)

T Cosθ = mg     .......(2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2), we get

tan θ = Fe / mg

tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{AB^{2}}}{mg}

tan\theta =\frac{\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{\theta }}}}{mg}

tan\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}Sin^{2}\theta \times mg}

tan\theta\times Sin^{2}\theta =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}

As θ is very small, so tanθ and Sinθ is equal to θ.

\theta ^{3} =\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}

\theta =\left (\frac{kq^{2}}{4L^{2}\times mg}  \right )^{\frac{1}{3}}

Ian walks 2 km to his best friends house, then walks 0.5 km to the library. He then makes 2.5 km walk home. The entire walk took
allochka39001 [22]
1. 2+0.5+2.5= 3. 2km/hr average




2. 14-6=4seconds. 8m/s in 4s = 2m/s acceleration


3. 15m/s divided by 2.5 = 6m/s acceleration

Justin Bieber is thrown horizontally at 10.0 m/s from the top of a cliff 122.5 m high.
sveticcg [70]

===>  Distance fallen from rest in free fall =

                                         (1/2) (acceleration) (time²)

                               (122.5 m) = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (time²)

Divide each side by (4.9 m/s²):   (122.5 m / 4.9 m/s²)  =  time²

                                                           (122.5/4.9) s²  =  time²

Take the square root of each side:    5.0 seconds


===> (Accelerating at 9.8 m/s², he will be dropping at
                               (9.8 m/s²) x (5.0 s) = 49 m/s
when he goes 'splat'.  We'll need this number for the last part.)


===> With no air resistance, the horizontal component of velocity
doesn't change.

Horizontal distance = (10 m/s) x (5.0 s)  =  50 meters .

===>  Impact velocity =  (10 m/s horizontally) + (49 m/s vertically)

                                 = √(10² + 49²)  =  50.01 m/s  arctan(10/49)

                                 =    50.01 m/s   at  11.5° from straight down,
                                                           
away from the base of the cliff.
