All of the rivers in the United States are not monitored closely for pollution levels.

The statement in the question is False

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Not all rivers in the United States are closely monitored for their pollution levels. There are volunteers who take responsibility of checking water bodies such as lakes, rivers, streams etc. They take the next step required after finding a water body contaminated.

But to say that all the rivers receive the same amount of attention and action is incorrect. To ensure that all the rivers are clean and pollution free, it would require a lot of man power in the said department which would collect the water samples from all these rivers and send it to labs for checking the pollution level of the particular river. It can be said that the rivers which are situated beside an industrial site, close to a town, will be the priority for checking pollution levels as it would directly cause harm to a small set of population if the toxicity is at an increased level.

What if m1 is initially moving at 3.4 m/s while m2 is initially at rest? (a) find the maximum spring compression in this case?
Lisa [10]
<span>Ans : Initial E = KE = ½mv² = ½ * 1.2kg * (2.2m/s)² = 2.9 J max spring compression where both velocities are the same: conserve momentum: 1.2kg * 2.2m/s = (1.2 + 3.2)kg * v → v = 0.6 m/s which means the combined KE = ½ * (1.2 + 3.2)kg * (0.6m/s)² = 0.79 J The remaining energy went into the spring: U = (2.9 - 0.79) J = 2.1 J = ½kx² = ½ * 554N/m * x² x = 0.0076 m ↠(a)</span>

You use 8x binoculars were used on a warbler (14cm long) in a tree 18cm away. What angle (in degrees) does the image of the warb
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The angle it subtend on the retina is  \theta_z = 0.44586^o    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The length of the warbler is  L = 14cm = \frac{14}{100} = 0.14m

      The distance from the binoculars is    d = 18cm = \frac{18}{100} = 0.18m

        The magnification of the binoculars is  M =8

Without the 8 X binoculars the  angle made with the angular size of the object  is mathematically represented as

          \theta = \frac{L}{d}

        \theta  = \frac{0.14}{0.18}

           = 0.007778 rad

Now magnification can be represented mathematically as

         M = \frac{\theta _z}{\theta}

Where \theta_z is the angle the image of the warbler subtend on your retina when the   binoculars i.e the  binoculars zoom.

So

      \theta_z = M * \theta

=>    \theta_z =8 * 0.007778

            = 0.0622222224

Generally the conversion to degrees can be mathematically evaluated as

             \theta_z = 0.062222224 * (\frac{360 }{2 \pi rad} )

              \theta_z = 0.44586^o

What the planet after Venus
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Mercury and Venus are therefore closer to each other most of the time. But Earth is the planet closest to Venus. And that's why from here on Earth, Venus looks so big and luminous. Venus is the brightest thing in the night sky after the sun and the moon.
