Which of the following would be most likely to lead to increased biodiversity

1 answer:

6 0

C. National Park Planning

Biodiversity - the variety of life in the world or in a particular habitat or ecosystem.

Clear cutting and oil drilling both decrease the variety of life, destroying habitat around them.

Farming decreases biodiversity because it decrease the variety of flora in that area, depending on what crop is planted.

You run from your friends house that is 1k away. You then walk home. What distance did you travel?

kolezko [41]

Would would have moved a total distance of 2k, because walking is a slower speed does not change distance

Starting from rest, a 4.0-kg body reaches a speed of 8.0 m/a in 20 s. What is te net force acting on the body?

Strike441 [17]

The guy below is wrong!

F=ma
Where force = mass x acceleration

We dont have acceleration, a= change in velocity divided by the time taken.
a = v (final velocity) - u (initial) / t
a us 8-0 (at rest means u was 0) / 20 = 0.4

Using F=ma

F= mass x acceleration
F= 4 x 0.4
F=1.6 N

State the 3 laws of motion

Georgia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion:

An object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Newton's second law:

The net force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

Newton's third law:

For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.

Calculate the wavelength of each frequency of electromagnetic radiation: a. 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasti

Natalka [10]

Answer:

a). 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasting)

The wavelength of a frequency of 100.2 Mhz is 2.99m.

b. 1070 kHz (typical frequency for AM radio broadcasting) (assume four significant figures)

The wavelength of a frequency of 1070 khz is 280.3 m.

c. 835.6 MHz (common frequency used for cell phone communication)

The wavelength of a frequency of 835.6 Mhz is 0.35m.

Explanation:

The wavelength can be determined by the following equation:

$c = \lambda \cdot \nu$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light, $\lambda$ is the wavelength and $\nu$ is the frequency.

Notice that since it is electromagnetic radiation, equation 1 can be used. Remember that light propagates in the form of an electromagnetic wave.

a). 100.2 MHz (typical frequency for FM radio broadcasting)

Then, $\lambda$ can be isolated from equation 1:

$\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}$ (2)

since the value of c is $3x10^{8}m/s$ . It is necessary to express the frequency in units of hertz.

$\nu = 100.2 MHz . \frac{1x10^{6}Hz}{1MHz}$ ⇒ $100200000Hz$

But $1Hz = s^{-1}$

$\nu = 100200000s^{-1}$

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

$\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{100200000s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 2.99 m$

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 100.2 Mhz is 2.99m.

b. 1070 kHz (typical frequency for AM radio broadcasting) (assume four significant figures)

$\nu = 1070kHz . \frac{1000Hz}{1kHz}$ ⇒ $1070000Hz$

But $1Hz = s^{-1}$

$\nu = 1070000s^{-1}$

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

$\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1070000s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 280.3 m$

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 1070 khz is 280.3 m.

c. 835.6 MHz (common frequency used for cell phone communication)

$\nu = 835.6MHz . \frac{1x10^{6}Hz}{1MHz}$ ⇒ $835600000Hz$

But $1Hz = s^{-1}$

$\nu = 835600000s^{-1}$

Finally, equation 2 can be used:

$\lambda = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{835600000s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 0.35 m$

Hence, the wavelength of a frequency of 835.6 Mhz is 0.35m.
