Answer:

A resource, such as oil, that cannot regenerate in a reasonable amount of time is called:

A) nonrenewable.

Explanation:

Although it could be considered that resources such as oil could be renewed if given the necessary time (remember that oil was produced thanks to the decomposition of organic matter over thousands of years), the time it requires is exaggerated compared to other energy sources such as the sun, tidal power or geothermal energy, which are considered renewable.

Buildings are more dense than the surrounding air. This means that they have more _____ per volume than the air and will stay on

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

mass

Explanation:

Density is the measure of how much mass of a substance is squeezed into a given volume of that substance. It is the mass per unit volume, and substances with lesser density will float in materials with denser density. Buildings are generally more obviously denser that air, if not we'll see then float upwards into the atmosphere, but that is not the case. Different liquids too can separate and form layers on one another due to their differences in volume.

Say you dropped a cannonball from the 17.0–meter mast of a ship sailing at 2.0 meters/second. How far from the base of the mast

Mice21 [21]

The correct choice is A. 0 meters.

If you simply dropped the cannonball and didn't throw it horizontally,

then it'll fall straight down the mast and land on the deck right next to

the mast.

While you were up there holding it, before you dropped it, the cannonball

was moving horizontally, at 2.0 meters/second, along with the rest of the

ship and everything else aboard. It continued doing that after it dropped,

and from the point of view (in the reference frame) of the mast and everyone

on the ship, it fell straight down, parallel to the mast.

Now that we have that question answered, we can proceed to the more-

important ones. I answered the easy one, but YOU'll have to answer these:

==> WHY did you climb the mast carrying a cannonball ?

Have you been drinking sea water or bad rum ?

==> WHY did you drop it, and never even yell "LOOK OUT BELOW !" ?

==> How many formerly-able-bodied souls were injured by the

plummeting cannonball ?

==> What did everybody ELSE yell after the impact ?

==> What did they do to you after they brought you down ?
