Wildlife biologists are attempting to monitor the population size of the insect pest known as the gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar)
Elden [556K]

Answer: Option A: The number of trees sampled.

The accuracy can be understood as how close is the measured value to the true value.   The aim is to monitor the population size of the insect pest in a 50 square kilometer. Random trees are selected, and number of eggs and larvae are counted. So, the measured value would be closer to actual value when the number of trees sampled are increased. More the number of trees sampled, less would be the chances of error and the accuracy of the estimate would increase.

People, especially adults, are inactive because of "passive" modes of transportation.
enot [183]

The drop in physical activity is partly due to inaction during leisure time and sedentary behaviour on the job and at home. Likewise, an increase in the use of "passive" modes of transportation also contributes to insufficient physical activity.

Who invented the wedge simple machine and why?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Gene Sarazen began to win tournaments in 1935 with a new club he had invented that was specialized for sand play. He is hailed as the inventor of the sand wedge.

Explanation:

A wedge is a triangular shaped tool, and is a portable inclined plane, and one of the six classical simple machines. It can be used to separate two objects or portions of an object, lift up an object, or hold an object in place. It functions by converting a force applied to its blunt end into forces perpendicular (normal) to its inclined surfaces. The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the ratio of the length of its slope to its width.[1][2] Although a short wedge with a wide angle may do a job faster, it requires more force than a long wedge with a narrow angle.

The force is applied on a flat, broad surface. This energy is transported to the pointy, sharp end of the wedge, hence the force is transported.

The wedge simply transports energy and collects it to the pointy end, consequently breaking the item. In this way, much pressure is put on a thin area.

An extreme skier, starting from rest, coasts down a mountain slope that makes an angle of 25.0 with the horizontal. The coeffici
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

V = 10.88 m/s

Explanation:

V_i =initial velocity = 0m/s

a= acceleration= gsinθ-\mu_kcosθ

putting values we get

a= 9.8sin25-0.2cos25= 2.4 m/s^2

v_f= final velocity and d= displacement along the inclined plane = 10.4 m

using the equation

v^2_f=v^2_i-2as

v^2_f=0^2-2(2.4)(10.4)

v_f= 7.04 m/s

let the speed just before she lands be "V"

using conservation of energy

KE + PE at the edge of cliff = KE at bottom of cliff

(0.5) m V_f^2 + mgh = (0.5) m V^2

V^2 = V_f^2 + 2gh

V^2 = 7.04^2 + 2 x 9.8 x 3.5

V = 10.88 m/s
