Answer:

Environmental mitigation

Explanation:

Environmental migitation is related environmental industry to describe  impacts to the  wetland, endangered species, archeological site, paleontological site or historic structure.

This  Act mainly focus on action of reducing the severity, seriousness, or painfulness to the environment.

According Clean Water Act in 1972, they agreed to create a another wetland for state highway which was constructed over wetlands.

What happens when a cold front meets a warm front?
Solnce55 [7]
These cases are rare, but what happens is something called an occluded front. There are so many things that could be talked about and results aren't typically constant, so I recommend you look up what an occluded front is. Its basically when a cold front catches up to a warm front and forces even more warm air up, causing high amounts of precipitation.

Which of the following statements concerning the electric field inside a conductor is true?
zvonat [6]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The electric field inside a conductor is always zero if the charges inside the conductor are not moving.

Since the electron are not moving then they must be in electrostatic equilibrium which means the electric field inside the conductor is zero. if the electric field existed inside the conductor then there will be net force on all the electrons and the electrons will accelerate.

An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's
ivolga24 [154]
1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i} (1)
where 
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, d_o = 18 cm, while d_i=-4 cm (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}
from which we find
f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm

A small electronic device is rated at 0.16 W when connected to 115 V. What is the resistance of this device?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

150156.25 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance: This can be defined as the opposition to the flow of electric current in a circuit. The S.I unit of resistance is Ohm's (Ω)

The expression for resistance is given as

P = V²/R................ equation 1

Where P = power, V = Voltage, R = Resistance.

Making R the subject of the equation,

R = V²/P.................. Equation 2

Given: V = 115 V , P = 0.16 W.

Substitute into equation 2

R = 155²/0.16

R = 150156.25 Ω

Hence,

The resistance = 150156.25 Ω

You are driving home from school steadily at for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to You arrive home after driving 4.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

Question is incomplete

Assuming the question you have asked is

You are driving home from school steadily at 95 km/h for 180 km. It then begins to rain and you slow to 65 km/h. You arrive home after driving 4.5 h.

given,

speed of 95 km/h for 180 km

due to rain

speed is reduced to 65 km/h

distance traveled in 4.5 hour

time taken to travel 180 km

d = s x t

t = \dfrac{180}{95}

     t = 1.9 hr

distance traveled in time, t' = 4.5-1.9 = 2.6 hr

Speed of vehicle = 65 Km/h

d' = s x t'

d' = 65 x 2.6

d'= 169 Km

total distance your hometown from school

D = d + d'

D = 180 + 169

D = 349 Km
