Trees and forest play an important role in balancing the amount of Carbon in the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis where plants make their own food with carbon dioxide, using energy from the sunlight. Therefore, deforestation (cutting down of trees) has an effect on the carbon cycle also the greenhouse gas effect and global warming. Deforestation reduces the removal component of this cycle, thus, increasing the carbon dioxide in the air.
Water is always on the move. Rain falling today may have been water in a distant ocean days before. And the water you see in a river or stream may have been snow on a high mountaintop. Water is in the atmosphere, on the land, in the ocean, and underground. It moves from place to place through the water cycle.
Where's the water?
There are about 1.4 billion km3 of water (336 million mi3 of water) on Earth. That includes liquid water in the ocean, lakes, and rivers. It includes frozen water in snow, ice, and glaciers, and water that’s underground in soils and rocks. It includes the water that’s in the atmosphere as clouds and vapor.
If you could put all that water together – like a gigantic water drop – it would be 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) across.
Atoms that have lost or gained one or more electrons are called ions.
Answer:
Distance: 16m Displacement: 8m North
Explanation:
Total distance is the total amount traveled, regardless of direction. So, you would just add 12 and 4 to get a total distance of 16m. Displacement is the distance/direction from the start to the end point, regardless of which way you got there. So, to find displacement, you just subtract:
12m North - 4m South = 8m North
** I could be wrong so definitely double check this answer with a similar question**
Answer:
6960 J/kg°C
Explanation:
specific heat= mass×specific heat capacity×increase in temperature
specific heat= 0.240×1450×20= 6960 J/kg°C
hope it helps!
