Hi everyone, I need help on the question: Why are humans the most dangerous creatures in the ocean

Physics

HUMAN ACTIVITIES ARE threatening the health of the world's oceans. More than 80 percent of marine pollution comes from land-based activities. From coral bleaching to sea level rise, entire marine ecosystems are rapidly changing.

Global warming is causing sea levels to rise, threatening coastal population centers. Many pesticides and nutrients used in agriculture end up in the coastal waters, resulting in oxygen depletion that kills marine plants and shellfish. Factories and industrial plants discharge sewage and other runoff into the oceans. Oil spills pollute the oceans, though U.S. water-sewage treatment plants discharge twice as much oil each year as tanker spills. Air pollution is responsible for almost one-third of the toxic contaminants and nutrients that enter coastal areas and oceans. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that 31.4 percent of fish stocks are either fished to capacity or over-fished.

A man pulls on his dog's leash to keep him from running after a bicycle. Which term best describes this example?
otez555 [7]
We know the answer doesn't have to do with force because we have not identified a positive or negative axis. 

Depending on what the system we are evaluating is, the sign of the work can change.

If work is done on the system, it is negative, but if work is done by the system, it is positive. 

If the system we are evaluating is the leash, the work is being done by the leash, and therefore, the work is positive.

If the system we are evaluating is the dog, the work is being done on the dog, and therefore, the work is negative.

On Earth, a spring stretches by 5.0 cm when a mass of 3.0 kg is suspended from one end.
Neko [114]

Answer:

Mass = 18.0 kg

Explanation:

From Hooke's law,

F = ke

where: F is the force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension.

But, F = mg

So that,

mg = ke

On the Earth, let the gravitational force be 10 m/s^{2}.

3.0 x 10 = k x 5.0

30 = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{30}{5} ................ 1

On the Moon, the gravitational force is \frac{1}{6} of that on the Earth.

m x \frac{10}{6} = k x 5.0

\frac{10m}{6} = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{10m}{30} ............. 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

\frac{30}{5}  = \frac{10m}{30}

m = \frac{900}{50}

    = 18.0

m = 18.0 kg

The mass required to produce the same extension on the Moon is 18 kg.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

<h2>289.9 kg.m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 130 × 22.3

We have the final answer as

<h3>289.9 kg.m/s</h3>
