The correct answer is - A. Papua New Guinea.

The biggest possibility and also logically, that a mining company will have operation in Oceania, from the suggested options, is in Papua New Guinea. The reason for that is that Papua New Guinea is an island that is rich in gold. In fact, most of the economy of the country is based around the gold mining, with only one exception where there's gold and copper mining. The opportunity to mine gold at a place where there's an abundance of it, and also where the labor-force is very cheap, seems like a perfect situation, so a mining company will naturally be attracted to it in order to make big profit.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

1.0236 billion metric tons

Explanation:

Given Parameters

Number of cars = 300000000

Average gas mileage per car = 25 MPG

Average distance covered by a car in one year = 10000 miles

CO2 Emission = 8.53 kg/gallon

Derivations from the given parameters,

If the average gas mileage per car is 25 MPG, then the volume of fuel consumed by a car in a year is:

<em>10000 miles ÷ 25 MPG = 400 gallons </em>

The CO2 emission for one car in a year is:

<em>400 gallons × 8.53 kg/gallon = 3412 kg or 3.412 metric tons (note: 1000 kg = 1 metric ton) </em>

The CO2 emission for 300000000 cars in year is:

<em>3.412 metric tons × 300000000 = 1023600000 kg = 1.0236 billion metric tons </em>

Scientists want to place a telescope on the moon to improve their view of distant planets. The telescope weighs 200 pounds on earth. The weight of the telescope when it reaches the moon as the weight of the telescope will be equal to its mass.

If you're trying to view faint deep-sky items like nebulas and galaxies then you'll need a reflector telescope while a refractor telescope is higher suited for perspectives inside our very own galaxy consisting of the moon and other planets.

A telescope is an optical tool using lenses, curved mirrors, or a mixture of each to look at remote objects, or diverse gadgets used to observe distant gadgets by means of their emission, absorption, or mirrored image of electromagnetic radiation.

The Celestron encourage 100AZ is a top, top choice of telescope for beginners. It gives remarkable ease of setup and use, and it comes with a much greater choice of add-ons than most other starter telescope bundles - it's the entire package for the ones trying their hand at astronomy.

A weather map is shown below:
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The cold front is to the west of Dallas.

Explanation:

The curved line with triangles on the map represents a cold front, and the direction of the front is indicated by the way the triangles are pointing.

The cold front is most likely to affect Dallas in the coming hours and will probably bring rain, wind, and possibly thunderstorms to the Dallas area. After the passage of the cold front, the pressure will rise and the temperature will drop. The wind will now be out of the northwest.

The predictions are no always exact because some winter cold fronts can bring snow and not all cold fronts generate thunderstorms.
