Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.

What is Marie's instantaneous speed at 20 minutes in miles/min?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

0.25miles/min

Explanation:

Instantaneous speed of a person or an object is its speed at a particular moment usually at a period of time.

The speedometer of a car reports the instantaneous speed.

 It can be mathematically expressed as;

        Instantaneous speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

At 20min the distance covered is 5miles;

    Instantaneous speed  = \frac{5 miles }{20mins}   = 0.25miles/min

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.

An amusement park ride consists of a rotating circular platform 8.26 m in diameter from which 10 kg seats are suspended at the e
VashaNatasha [74]

To solve this problem we will begin by finding the necessary and effective distances that act as components of the centripetal and gravity Forces. Later using the same relationships we will find the speed of the body. The second part of the problem will use the equations previously found to find the tension.

PART A) We will begin by finding the two net distances.

r = \frac{8.26}{2} = 4.13m

And the distance 'd' is

d = lsin\theta

d = 1.14 sin 16.2\°

d = 0.318m

Through the free-body diagram the tension components are given by

Tcos\theta = mg

Tsin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}

Here we can watch that,

R = r+d

Dividing both expression we have that,

tan\theta = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

Replacing the values,

tan(16.2) = \frac{v^2}{(4.13+0.318)(9.8)}

v = 4.83371m/s

PART B) Using the vertical component we can find the tension,

Tcos\theta = mg

T = \frac{mg}{cos\theta}

T = \frac{(10+26.2)(9.8)}{cos(16.2)}

T = 369.42N
