Answer:The Urban heat island temperature will be REDUCED.

Two Impacts of Rooftop gardens

1) provision of shade against Sunlight.

2) It helps to purify the air around the building.

Explanation: Rooftop gardens are gardens made on top of the roofs of buildings, it is a Green initiative aimed at helping to improve the overall Environment.

Rooftop gardens have several significant benefits which includes

Reduction of the surrounding temperatures and the Urban heat Island temperatures.

Rooftop gardens helps to shade the roof from the direct impacts of harsh weather conditions.

Generally, plants are known as air purifiers as they remove the excess Carbondioxide around the environment through photosynthesis, and they also help to release water vapor which will help to improve the humidity of the environment.

In a case where electrical current leakage from the circuit occurs, the GFCI would do the following:
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Sense the current leakage

Trip the circuit

Cut off the electricity

Explanation:

The correct order is -

Sense the current leakage

Trip the circuit

Cut off the electricity

Reason -

First step has to be taken to sense the electric current leakage without it being detected, it cant be dealt with.

The second step consists of tripping the  circuit so at to remove the flow of electricity.

The third step is to Cut the electricity off so to stop the leakage and be safe.

Guys, can you rate this toolbox, please. It is my DT project, made for car trips, what do you think of the idea/design/usability
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Honestly overall i think it looks fantastic

Explanation:

It looks like some really nice clean craftsmanship and i love the use of some different colors for some drawers to make it pop. the only con that i can possibly think of is that with it being wood and you moving it from place to place, some rubber feet or something that would prevent it from scratching/damaging anything else if it doesn't already (cant really see under it). other then that one thing i think it looks really good. well done.

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Companies are combining their online business activities with their existing physical presence in order to lower costs of their operations. When both these things are combined labor costs are reduced because with online presence the company has to have limited number of branches, inventory costs are reduced because additional inventories for every physical outlet is not required and delivery costs are reduced because now company don't have to supply the things to all the outlets on regular basis.

Trust of the people is also improved because mostly people are reluctant to order from the brands that only have their online store and donot have any physical presence. Value added services are provided by a company who have both online and offline presence like home delivery and customized offerings.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

T=151 K, U=-1.848*10^6J

Explanation:

The given process occurs when the pressure is constant. Given gas follows the Ideal Gas Law:

 pV=nRT

For the given scenario, we operate with the amount of the gas- n- calculated in moles. To find n, we use molar mass: M=102 g/mol.  

Using the given mass m, molar mass M, we can get the following equation:  

 pV=mRT/M

To calculate change in the internal energy, we need to know initial and final temperatures. We can calculate both temperatures as:

T=pVM/(Rm); so initial T=302.61K and final T=151.289K

 

Now we can calculate change of U:

U=3/2 mRT/M using T- difference in temperatures

 U=-1.848*10^6 J

Note, that the energy was taken away from the system.
