What causes it to form: <span>Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain. Human activities, power plants, and exhaust from vehicles all are causes.</span>
Affects on living things-
Acid rain can kill trees
It can affect plant growth patterns
Toxins can kill animals
Nonliving things- 
It can decay building materials and paints
it breaks down rocks

The bar graph shows energy data taken from a roller coaster at a theme park. analyze the data and assess its validity. 3-5 sente
hichkok12 [17]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of energy, potential energy, and kinetic energy.

The data shown by the bar graph is "valid".

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy of the system must remain constant at any given point. Hence, the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of the roller coaster must be constant at any given time.

Considering the bottom of the first hill:

Total Energy at 1st Hill = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy

From the data given in the bar graph:

Total Energy at 1st Hill = 2,500,000 J + 0 J (since at the bottom potential energy is zero due to zero height)

Total Energy at 1st Hill = 2,500,000 J

Now, considering the top of the second hill:

Total Energy at 2nd Hill = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy

From the data given in the bar graph:

Total Energy at 2nd Hill = 1,000,000 J + 1,500,000 J

Total Energy at 2nd Hill = 2,500,000 J

Hence,

Total Energy at 1st Hill = Total Energy at 2nd Hill

Therefore, the given bar graph is "valid".
