How many million Christmas trees were sold in the year 2000?

Physics
1 answer:
Sergio039 [100]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Christmas tree production occurs worldwide on Christmas tree farms, in artificial tree factories and from native strands of pine and fir trees. Christmas trees, pine and fir trees purposely grown for use as a Christmas tree, are grown on plantations in many western nations, including Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. In Australia, the industry is relatively new, and nations such as the United States, Germany and Canada are among world leaders in annual production.

Great Britain consumes about 8 million trees annually, while in the United States between 35 and 40 million trees are sold during the Christmas season. Artificial Christmas trees are mostly produced in the Pearl River delta area of China. Christmas tree prices were described using a Hotelling-Faustmann model in 2001, the study showed that Christmas tree prices declined with age and demonstrated why more farmers do not price their trees by the foot. In 1993, economists made the first known demand elasticity estimates for the natural Christmas tree market.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

F_m= 8.28 \times 10^{-16} N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the force is F_m=evB\sin\theta\\\implies F_m=1.602 \times 10^{-19}\times 300\times 19\times\sin 65^0= 8.28 \times 10^{-16} N

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

25 m/s

Explanation:

from the question you van see that some detail is missing, however i found this same question using internet search engines on: 'https://www.chegg.com/homework-help/questions-and-answers/light-rail-passenger-trains-provide-transportation-within-cities-speed-slow-nearly-constan-q5808369'

here is the complete question:

'Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant (and quite modest) acceleration. A train travels through a congested part of town at 7.0m/s . Once free of this area, it speeds up to 12m/s in 8.0 s. At the edge of town, the driver again accelerates, with the same acceleration, for another 16 s to reach a higher cruising speed. What is the final Speed?'

SOLUTION

initial speed (u) = 7 m/s

final speed (v) = 13 m/s

initial acceleration time (t1) = 8 s

final acceleration time (t2) = 16 s

what is the higher cruising speed?

acceleration = \frac{final speed (v) - initial speed(u)}{time (t1)}

acceleration = \frac{13-7}{8} = 0.75 m/s^{2}

since the train accelerates at the same rate, the increase in  speed will be = acceleration x time (t2)

= 0.75 x 16 = 12 m/s

therefore the higher cruising speed = increase in speed + initial speed

= 12 + 13 = 25 m/s

Which process produces rising air when mountains push the air upward?
kicyunya [14]

Answer;

A. orographic lifting

Explanation;

Orographic lifting is a process that takes place when an air mass is forced from a low elevation to a higher elevation as it moves over rising terrain.

This can be explained by;  When air is blocked by mountains, it cannot go through these mountains, As it ascends or moves up the mountain, the air then cools as it rises and when it cools to its saturation point, the water vapor condenses and cloud forms.

These clouds formed  are known as orographic clouds, that develop in response to the lifting forced by the topography the earth.

SECTION B<br>THEORY QUESTIONS<br>(1a) Define the following<br>(a) Work:​
Vesna [10]

Work is the amount of energy transferred

Explanation:

In physics, work is a measure of the energy transfer occurring in a process. Typically, we talk about work when energy is converted from one form into another.

For instance, work is done when a force is applied on an object. The work done on the object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

We notice the following:

  • No work is done when the force is perpendicular to the displacement (cos 90^{\circ}=0)
  • The work is maximum when the force is parallel to the displacement

Whenever work is done, there is also an energy transfer taking place. For instance, in the previous example, when the force is applied to the object, the object will accelerate (assume there is no friction), and will gain kinetic energy: therefore, there is a transfer of energy to the object.
