Answer:

When carbondioxide gas is emitted from vehicles and industries and goes upward in the atmosphere. The carbondioxide gas combines with the rain water forming an acid called carbonic acid and make the rain acidic.

When rainfall occurs this acid comes to the ground and ocean and adversely affected the living organisms due to acidic nature. The marine animal's body comprise of shell and skeleton. This skeleton and shell are made from calcium, when acidification of ocean water occurs, the calcium dissolved and the body of animals are destroyed.

If two trucks have the same mass, but truck A is traveling 15 km/h, and truck B is traveling 30 km/h, what statement is true? Qu
Montano1993 [528]

Given that the two trucks have the same mass but different velocities, that is truck A is traveling 15 km/h and truck B is traveling 30 km/h,  hence  Truck B will have a greater stopping distance.

The reason why Truck B will have a greater stopping distance is because it speed is greater hence more distance to cover.

From the following expression

Speed = Distance/Time

Distance = Speed*Time

More on the kinetic Energy

Following from the given problem truck B will also have more kinetic energy because it velocity is more

Formula

KE= 1/2mv^2

Hence the more the velocity for a constant mass the greater the Kinetic energy
