What is a likely consequence of preventing prescribed burns to forest ecosystems?

Physics

stealth61 [152]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is option A

The prescribed burns to forest ecosystem is prevented the burning of forest just because the natural wildfires will last longer as there is more fuels and small shrubs, plants left unburned.

Natural fires can last longer as there are many dry plants and trees present in the forest that can serve as fuel and can continue forest fire for a longer duration of time.

QUESTION 10
Elena L [17]

The maximum value of θ of such the ropes (with a maximum tension of 5,479 N) will be able to support the beam without snapping is:

\theta =37.01^{\circ}

We can apply the first Newton's law in x and y-direction.

If we do a free body diagram of the system we will have:

x-direction

All the forces acting in this direction are:

T_{1}sin(\theta)-T_{2}sin(\theta)=0    (1)

Where:

  • T(1) is the tension due to the rope 1
  • T(2) is the tension due to the rope 2

Here we just conclude that T(1) = T(2)

y-direction

The forces in this direction are:

T_{1}cos(\theta)+T_{2}cos(\theta)-W=0   (2)

Here W is the weight of the steel beam.

We equal it to zero because we need to find the maximum angle at which the ropes will be able to support the beam without snapping.

Knowing that T(1) = T(2) and W = mg, we have:

T_{1}cos(\theta)+T_{1}cos(\theta)-m_{steel}g=0

2T_{1}cos(\theta)-m_{steel}g=0

2T_{1}cos(\theta)=m_{steel}g

T(1) must be equal to 5479 N, so we have:

cos(\theta)=\frac{m_{steel}g}{2T_{1}}

cos(\theta)=\frac{892*9.81}{2*5479}

cos(\theta)=\frac{892*9.81}{2*5479}

cos(\theta)=0.80

Therefore, the maximum angle allowed is θ = 37.01°.

A 720 g softball is traveling at 15.0 m/s when caught. If the force of the glove on the ball is 520 N, what is the time it takes
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the softball, m = 720 g = 0.72 kg

velocity of the ball, v = 15.0 m/s

applied force, F = 520 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion, to determine the time it takes the ball to stop;

F = ma = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.72 \ \times \ 15}{520} \\\\t = 0.021 \ s \\

Therefore, the time it takes the ball to stop is 0.021 s.

How original were Newton’s contributions to science? (In what ways did Newton depend on the mechanical view?)
kvasek [131]
Newton's new “reflecting telescope” was more powerful than ... Before Newton, scientists primarily adhered to ancient theories on ... laws of motion laid the groundwork for classical mechanics. Newton's research on motion helped give credibility to the heliocentric view. Newton also helped pioneer telescopic innovations, and he is sometimes credited with inventing the first reflecting telescope. He also conducted experiments using the prism, and developed a theory about the nature of color and light.

An aluminum wire is 5.87 m long and has a diameter of 6.07 mm.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first we have to calculate the cross sectional area of the cable:

Diameter (D)=6.07 mm

Since: 1000mm = 1m

6.07mm/ 1000mm/m = 0.00607 meters

Area of a circle : π (d/2)^2

A = π (0.00607/2)^2= 0.000028937 m2

Resistance formula:

Resistance (R) = P(resistivity) L (length)÷A (cross sectional area )

Replacing with the values given:

R = (2.82x10-8 x 5.87) / 0.000028937

R = 5.72 x 10-3Ω

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A secret agent is locked in a room. He pushes against the door but cannot open it. Finally, he falls to the floor exhausted. Has
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: There is not work done at the door because the door did not move.

Explanation:  Work is defined as the movement done by a force.

So if you move to apply a force F in an object and you move it a distance D, the work applied on the object is  

W = F*D

In this case, the secret agent pushes against the door, so there is a force, but the agent does not move the door, so D = 0, so there is no motion of the door, which implies that there is no work done at the door.
