Explanation:
1760 yd/mi / 120 yd/field = 14⅔ fields/mi
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment.
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Answer:
The horizontally applied force = 2360 N
Explanation:
<em>Force:</em> Force can be defined as the product of mass and acceleration. the S.I unit of force is Newton (N)
Fh = Fr + ma......... Equation 1
Where Fh = horizontally applied force, Fr = friction force, m = mass of the crate, a = acceleration of the crate.
<em>Given: m = 400 kg, a = 1 m/s²</em>
Fr = 1/2 W, W = mg ⇒W = 400×9.8 = 3920 N
∴Fr = 1/2(3920), Fr = 1960 N
Substituting these values into equation 1
Fh = 1960 + 400×1
Fh = 1960 + 400
Fh = 2360 N
Therefore the horizontally applied force = 2360 N
The mass of the astronaut is still 65 kilograms. Mass is constant or doesn't change no matter where you are.
