Coastal erosion has depleted a large portion of South Louisiana's wetlands along the coastline in swamps and marshes mainly due to storm surges. But other factors also contributed to this erosion. Canals and waterways dug through the marshes and swamps for the oil industry is one factor. Man-made levees erected to provide protection to residents living adjacent to the river is another major cause. Large scale logging especially in the early 1900's also damaged the wetlands.

Newton's second law tells you: 

Sum of forces on an object = ma 

Here, the forces acting on the bundle are the tension in the string and the force of gravity, these two must combine to yield the acceleration of the bundle. 

So we have: 

T-mg = ma 

or T=m(g+a) 

We know m=8.7kg, we need to find a from the information 

starting from rest, an accelerating object covers distance according to: 

<span>dist = 1/2 at^2 </span>

to cover 1m in 1.8s, we have: 

a=2d/t^2 = 2x1/1.8^2 = 0.62 m/s/s 

Thus, the tension in the string is: 

<span>T = m(g+a)
=  8.7</span>kg(9.8m/s/s+0.62m/s/s) 
<span>
<span>T =  90.654 N

Answer:

The density of the sample is 36 g/cm³

Explanation:

m= 972g

l=3cm

V = l³ = 3³ = 27 cm³

density = mass/volume

= 972/27

= 36 g/cm³

Key difference of the celsius scale and kevin scale
mixer [17]

Their 'degrees' are the same size.  The difference between the Celsius
and Kelvin scales is their zero-point.  Zero Kelvin is the absolute zero of
nature and Physics.  Zero Celsius is the melting/freezing point of water,
273.15 higher than absolute zero.
