Answer: B. Contour farming

Explanation:

Contour farming is a sustainable practice of conserving the soil from erosion so as to retain it's fertility for the next harvest.  In this method plants are grown over the contours of the slopes at a slight elevation. This process allows the absorption of water by the soil and prevents the surface runoff. Hence, prevents the loss of soil fertility by soil erosion due to water.

I'd say
B. Contour Farming 
since it's planting on a flat surface and creating w/ridges to help prevent water from taking the crops away

What is the difference in the beginning between primary succession and
frutty [35]

Answer:

OC

Explanation:

Primary succession begins after a new habitat is opened that was previously unavailable- for example, lava flow that left behind bare rock. This successions normally begins with organisms like lichens, which are able to survive in these conditions. It has no soil and was previously uninhabited.

Secondary succession begins as a response to a disturbance that clears a previously inhabited area, like a forest fire or tsunami. This may cause a lot of destruction and death, but afterwards there is still soil available for new plants to grow again. Eventually, the habitat will regrow itself.

4. The mass of ball A is 10 kilograms and the mass of ball B is 5 kilograms. If
Nookie1986 [14]
4.) We are told that ball A is travelling from right to left, which we will refer to as a positive direction, making the initial velocity of ball A, +3 m/s. If ball B is travelling in the opposite direction to A, it will be travelling at -3 m/s. The final velocity of A is +2 m/s. Using the elastic collision equation, which uses the conservation of linear momentum, we can solve for the final velocity of B.

MaVai + MbVbi = MaVaf + MbVbf

Ma = 10 kg and Mb = 5 kg are the masses of balls A and B.
Vai = +3 m/s and Vbi = -3 m/s are the initial velocities.
Vaf = +2 m/s and Vbf = ? are the final velocities.

(10)(3) + (5)(-3) = (10)(2) + 5Vbf
30 - 15 = 20 + 5Vbf
15 = 20 + 5Vbf
-5 = 5 Vbf
Vbf = -1 m/s

The final velocity of ball B is -1 m/s.

5.) We are now told that Ma = Mb, but Vai = 2Vbi

We can use another formula to look at this mathematically.

Vaf = [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(2Mb/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi

Since Ma = Mb we can simplify this formula.

Vaf = [(0)/2Ma]Vai + [2Ma/2Ma]Vbi
Vaf = Vbi

Vbf = [(2Ma/(Ma + Mb)]Vai + [(Ma - Mb)/(Ma + Mb)]Vbi
Vbf = [2Mb/2Mb]Vai + [(0)/2Mb]Vbi
Vbf = Vai

Vaf = Vbi
Vbf = 2Vbi

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of A will be equal to the initial velocity of B.

If the initial velocity of A is twice the initial velocity of B, then the final velocity of B will be twice the initial velocity of B.
