What is the relationship between environmental science and public policymakers?

jekas [21]

In a simple sentence I would say using environmental science public policy maker would be able to create policies on environmental issues such as littering,recycling specific items/reusing,not wasting excess energy,ect.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(a). The pressure is 14.76 psi.

(b). The pressure is 15.59 psi.

(c). The pressure is 15.68 psi.

All answer are reasonable.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed v₁= 60 mph

Speed v₂ = 225 mph

Speed v₃ = 235 mph

(a). We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{1}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v^2+\rho gh$

there, no vertical movement

So, on neglect of height term

$P_{1}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{1}^2$

Where, P= atmospheric pressure

$\rho$ = air density

v = speed

Put the value in the equation

$P_{1}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(60\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{1}=2126.0\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{1}=\dfrac{2126.0}{144}$

$P_{1}= 14.76\ psi$

(b). Speed v₂ = 225 mph

We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{2}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{2}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$P_{2}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(225\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{2}=2246.17\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{2}=\dfrac{2246.17}{144}$

$P_{2}= 15.59\ psi$

(c). Speed v₃ = 235 mph

We need to calculate the maximum pressure on his hand

Using equation of pressure

$P_{3}=P+\dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_{3}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$P_{3}=14.7\times144+\dfrac{1}{2}\times(0.002376\times(235\times1.4667)^2)$

$P_{3}=2257.93\ lb/ft^2$

$P_{3}=\dfrac{2257.93}{144}$

$P_{3}= 15.68\ psi$

According to bernoulli's equation,

If the car increases the velocity the the pressure on the surface of the driver's hand increases.

The pressure from P₁ to P₃ are all near the value of one atmosphere.

So, the pressure difference of one atmosphere is not enough to break the driver's hand.

Hence, (a). The pressure is 14.76 psi.

(b). The pressure is 15.59 psi.

(c). The pressure is 15.68 psi.

All answer are reasonable.

An astronaut is a short distance away from her space station without a tether rope. She has a large wrench. What should she do w

Hitman42 [59]

Answer: b. Throw it directly away from the space station.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.

To understand it better:

Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction on the first.

So, if the astronaut throws the wrench away from the space station (in the opposite direction of the space station), according to Newton's third law, she will be automatically moving towards the station and be safe.
