What could people do to DECREASE erosion of the Earth’s surface?

  Well, People can plant crops or they can grow plants and if your looking at the options only B and C has that, but lets make sure. So A) "Cut down more trees" does not help DECREASE erosion, if you want to decrease erosion then you have to have roots to make earth's surface stay. A is eliminated, going to B, B says "Use more land to plant crops." that's better because crops have roots so it can keep the surface/land sucked in and will not get erode away. Anyways moving on to C, C "Allow natural vegetation to grow." that kinda helps decrease erosion; so imma keep that in mind, and finally D "Allow cattle to graze more often." does not help at all. So D and A is eliminated, So theres only C and B left, C will kinda help but B will help more; So it will leave us to the final answer which is....

      Answer: B) Use more land to plant crops.

I hope this helps you and I hope you understand what i'm talking about...

B) Use more land to plant crops.

By planting crops, the roots can hold ground, thus preventing erosion.

Answer:

the net toque is τ=8.03* 10⁻⁴ N*m

Explanation:

Assuming the disk has constant density ρ, the moment of inertia I of is

I = ∫r² dm

since m = ρ*V = ρπR² h , then dm= 2ρπh r dr

thus

I = ∫r²dm = ∫r²2ρπh r dr =2ρπh ∫r³ dr = 2ρπh (R⁴/4- 0⁴/4)= ρπhR⁴ /2= mR²/2

replacing values

I = mR²/2= 0.017 kg * (0.06 m)²/2 = 3.06 *10⁻⁵ kg*m²

from Newton's second law applied to rotational motion

τ= Iα , where τ=net torque and α= angular acceleration

since the angular velocity ω is related with the angular acceleration through

ω= ωo + α*t → α =(ω-ωo)/t =  (21 rad/s-0)/0.8 s = 26.25 rad/s²

therefore

τ= Iα= 3.06 *10⁻⁵ kg*m²*26.25 rad/s² = 8.03* 10⁻⁴ N*m

A rock is thrown horizontally from a high building at 33.8 m/s. What is the magnitude of its velocity 4.25 s later?
Alex17521 [72]
<h2>Answer:53.63ms^{-2}</h2>

Explanation:

The equations of motion used in this question is v=u+at

When a object is projected horizontally from a sufficiently height,the x-component of acceleration remains zero because there is no force that drags the object in x direction.

But,due to gravity,the object accelerates downward at a rate of 9.8ms^{-2}.

In X-Direction,

Given that initial velocity=u_{x}=33.8ms^{-1}

Using v=u+at,

v_{x}=33.8+(0)4.25=33.8ms^{-1}

In Y-Direction,

Given that initial velocity=u_{x}=0ms^{-1}

Using v=u+at,

v_{y}=0+(9.8)4.25=41.65ms^{-1}

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}

v=\sqrt{1142.44+1734.72}=\sqrt{2877.163}=53.63ms^{-1}

Hello,help me with this out please i need it hurry but please ensure your answer is correct..I attach here with my question.
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

.409 N

Explanation:

For this to balance, the moments around the fulcrum must sum to zero.

On the left you have   .21   ( is that down? I will assume it is)

      Counterclockwise moments :

        .21 * 40     +  1.0 * 20    

     Clockwise moments :

        .5 * 20     +     F * 45

these moments must equal each other

.21*40 + 1 *20   =  .5 * 20 + F * 45

   F = .409 N

If a force of 19 N is applied to a crate to push it 23 m, how much work is done on the crate by the force?
swat32

Answer:

437 Joules

Explanation:

Use the formula for work directly

(work) = (force) x (displacement)

to get

(work) = (19 N) x (23 m) = 437 Joules
