But some scientists and members of the public have expressed concern that the genetic engineering of plants could result in unsafe foods, do irreparable harm to beneficial organisms, and spur the uncontrollable growth of weeds.

There are many reasons for concern. The GE crops are created by using a new genetic process to insert an unknown amount of DNA that has the potential to spread in the environment in unpredictable ways. Independent research on the effects of eating these new foods has been suppressed when it shows evidence that the GMOs are harmful to health. Hope this helped. ;)

Answer:

  • time: 1.122 seconds
  • range: 10.693 m
  • maximum height: 1.543 m

Explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  runner is launched at 30° angle to horizontal at 11 m/s

  acceleration due to gravity is g = -9.8 m/s²

<u>Find</u>:

  runner's hang time

  runner's distance to the landing point

  runner's maximum height

<u>Solution</u>:

The (horizontal, vertical) speed components will be ...

  (11 m/s)(cos(30°), sin(30°)) = (5.5√3 m/s, 5.5 m/s)

The time of flight can be found from the height formula:

  h(t) = 1/2gt² +vt . . . . . . where v is the vertical speed at launch

The time we're concerned with is the time when h(t)=0 and t>0.

  0 = -4.9t^2 +5.5√3t = t(-4.9t +5.5√3)

The second factor is zero when ...

  t = (5.5√3)/4.9 ≈ 1.122 . . . seconds hang time

__

The distance to the landing point will be the product of horizontal speed and hang time:

  d = (5.5 m/s)(5.5√3/4.9 s) ≈ 10.693 m . . . . distance to landing

__

The maximum height can be found from the formula (based on conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy) ...

  h = v²/|2g| = (5.5 m/s)²/(2(9.8 m/s²)) ≈ 1.543 m . . . . maximum height

Answer:

A. Nature exists as a resource that should be preserved for future generations.

Explanation:

Deep ecology movement is an idea that all living organisms on the earth have right to live with their basic moral values. All organisms must be respected irrespective of their size, shape or other physical features. Natural resources are scarce and so they should not be wasted and must be saved for future generations.
