You'll be using the equation f = m a, or force = mass x acceleration
First, you have to find the acceleration. The acceleration needed is the average acceleration over the 15 seconds is accelerated. So, you take the change in speed (25m/s - 15m/s) to get a change of 10m/s.
The average acceleration (acceleration per second) is found by dividing total acceleration by the time it took. So, it's 10 / 15, which equals .6. This is a, your acceleration
Now just plug it into the equation F = m a, because it already gives you the mass of the car
F = 550 x .6
Solve that to get F = 366.6. F is measured in Newtons (N), so your answer is 366.6N
The largest reservoir of the Earth's carbon is located in the deep-ocean, with 36,000 billion tons of carbon stored, whereas approximately 65,500 billion tons are found on Earth combined.
This is by far the largest reservoir, carbon dioxide is stored in the interior of the earth in the form of carbonate rocks, such as limestone, dolomites, and chalk.
Answer:
joules
Explanation:
The electric energy transferred to a resistor in a time period is equal to the electric power multiplied by time, E=Pt, and can also be calculated using E=I2Rt. Electric companies measure their energy sales in a large number of joules called a kilowatt hour (kWh) which is equivalent to 3.6×106 J.
Answer:
3% of the earth's water is fresh. 2.5% of the earth's fresh water is unavailable: locked up in glaciers, polar ice caps, atmosphere, and soil; highly polluted; or lies too far under the earth's surface to be extracted at an affordable cost. 0.5% of the earth's water is available fresh water.
To break the numbers down, 96.5% of all the Earth's water is contained within the oceans as salt water, while the remaining 3.5% is freshwater lakes and frozen water locked up in glaciers and the polar ice caps. Of that fresh water, almost all of it takes the form of ice: 69% of it, to be exact.
As these charts and the data table show, the amount of water locked up in ice and snow is only about 1.7 percent of all water on Earth, but the majority of total freshwater on Earth, about 68.7 percent, is held in ice caps and glaciers. Source: Gleick, P. H., 1996: Water resources.
The earth has an abundance of water, but unfortunately, only a small percentage (about 0.3 percent), is even usable by humans. The other 99.7 percent is in the oceans, soils, icecaps, and floating in the atmosphere. Still, much of the 0.3 percent that is useable is unattainable.
