Answer:
More than 20% of the amazon has been destroyed, affects biodiversity.
Explanation:
- The biggest issues that the amazon is facing is the deforestation and it involves the clearing of land areas for logging, farming, and other land-use changes.
- Effects that are seen are droughts, floods, destruction of habitats of flora and fauna along with the valuable services of the ecosystem.
- This leads to a decrease in the carrying capacity of the species and the decline of the essential resources that are necessary to survive.
Answer: a) 11.76 m/s b) 7.056 m
Explanation:
The described situation is as follows:
An object is dropped from the top of a tower and when measuring the time it takes to reach the ground that turns out to be 0.02 minutes.
This situation is related to free fall, this also means we have constant acceleration, hence the equations we will use are:
(1)
(2)
Where:
Is the final velocity of the object
Is the initial velocity of the object (it was dropped)
is the acceleration due gravity
is the height of the tower
is the time it takes to the object to reach the ground
b) Begining with (1):
(3)
(4)
(5) This is the final velocity of the object
a) Substituting (5) in (2):
(6)
Clearing
:
(7)
(8) This is the height of the tower
Answer: in the smaller/ thinner pieces.
Answer:
The white dwarf will start to get darker.
Explanation:
The white dwarf will keep is spherical shape, since electron degeneracy pressure (outward direction) will counteract the force of gravity due to its own mass (inward direction) which lead to hydrostatic equilibrium.
A nuclear reaction occurs when light elements combine into heavier elements (that is know as nucleosynthesis). Exist different ways in which that can happen, but the most common is the Proton-Proton chain. In that fusion reaction, two atoms of Hydrogen combine to form helium, while the fusion takes place, photons are created.
Photons are the elementary particles that constitute light and taking into account that in white dwarfs the production of photons has ceased because there are no nuclear fusions, then, it is clear that the white dwarf will start to get darker as it cools since is emitting into space the photons produced in the past.
Answer:
241 kPa
Explanation:
The ideal gas law states that:

where
p is the gas pressure
V is its volume
n is the number of moles
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas
We can rewrite the equation as

For a fixed amount of gas, n is constant, so we can write

Therefore, for a gas which undergoes a transformation we have

where the labels 1 and 2 refer to the initial and final conditions of the gas.
For the sample of gas in this problem we have

So we can solve the formula for
, the final pressure:
