A. overgrazing of livestock

Explanation:

Overgrazing of livestock is the ranch practice that contributes to soil erosion.

Soil erosion is the washing away of the top layer of the earth on which plant grows.

Plants are covers of the earth and they prevent agents of denudation from actively washing away the soil.
When livestock are introduced into a place, continuous grazing leaves the surface bare.
The plants becomes depleted and the surface is exposed.
This fast tracks the process of overgrazing.

36 The height of a 30-story building is approximately

ohaa [14]

An approximation used to measure building height is 10 feet per building level.

Converting from feet to meters using the equation:
1 ft = 0.3048m
10 ft = 3.048m

Multiplying that by 30 storeys, we get:
3 x 3.048m = 91.44m, which is near the answer of (3) 10^2 m or 100m.

g A rotating wheel requires 5.00 s to rotate 28.0 revolutions. Its angular velocity at the end of the 5.00-s interval is 96.0 ra

Setler [38]

Answer:

The angular acceleration of the wheel is 15.21 rad/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 5 sec

Final angular velocity = 96.0 rad/s

Angular displacement = 28.0 rev = 175.84 rad

Let $\alpha$ be the angular acceleration

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using equation of motion

$\theta=\omega_{i} t+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$

Put the value in the equation

$175.84=\omega_{i}\times 5+\dfrac{1}{2}\times\alpha\times(5)^2$

$175.84=\omega_{i}\times 5+12.5\alpha$ ......(I)

Again using equation of motion

$\omega_{f}=\omega_{i}+\alpha t$

Put the value in the equation

$96.0=\omega_{i}+\alpha \times 5$

On multiply by 5 in both sides

$480=\omega_{i}\times 5+\alpha\times 25$ ....(II)

On subtract equation (I) from equation (II)

$480-175.84=\alpha(25-5)$

$304.16=\alpha\times20$

$\alpha=\dfrac{304.16}{20}$

$\alpha=15.21\ rad/s^2$

Hence, The angular acceleration of the wheel is 15.21 rad/s².

g A student slides her 80.0-kg desk across the level floor of her dormitory room a distance 3.00 m at constant speed. If the coe

Rainbow [258]

The desk is in equilbrium, so Newton's second law gives

∑ <em>F</em> (horizontal) = <em>p</em> - <em>f</em> = 0

∑ <em>F</em> (vertical) = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

==> <em>n</em> = <em>mg</em>

==> <em>p</em> = <em>f</em> = <em>µn</em> = <em>µmg</em> = 0.400 (80.0 kg) <em>g</em> = 313.6 N

The student pushes the desk 3.00 m, so she performs

<em>W</em> = (313.6 N) (3.00 m) = 940.8 Nm ≈ 941 J

of work.

A 0.50-kg croquet ball is initially at rest on the grass. When the ball is struck by a mallet, the average force exerted on it i

NeTakaya

The impulse given to the ball is equal to the change in its momentum:

J = ∆p = (0.50 kg) (5.6 m/s - 0) = 2.8 kg•m/s

This is also equal to the product of the average force and the time interval ∆t :

J = F(ave) ∆t

so that if F(ave) = 200 N, then

∆t = J / F(ave) = (2.8 kg•m/s) / (200 N) = 0.014 s
