If global warming were to raise temperatures 1.5°C to 4.5°C, what would most-likely happen?
Pani-rosa [81]

The correct answers are:

- Polar ice caps would melt, increasing sea levels;

Because of the rise of the temperatures, the permafrost, glaciers, and polar ice caps would mostly melt. As they melt, they will increase the sea levels significantly because they will introduce much more water into the the seas and oceans.

- Wildlife would have to migrate or die;

With increasing sea levels, as well as change of habitats, lot of animals would find themselves in situation where they will have to migrate, because if they don't, they will find themselves in water and drown, or starve to death.

- Hurricanes and typhoons could increase in intensity;

Because the water in the sea levels will increase, and the water bodies will become even bigger, the hurricanes and typhoons will be able to become stronger and more intense, thus be more destructive as well.

If the half life for strontium-90 is approximately 28 years, then what is the whole life for strontium-90?
sveta [45]
Set this up as

10 = 40 (1/2)t/28

and solve for t in years.

10/40 = (1/2)t/28

log(0.25) = (t/28) log(0.5)

t = 28 log(0.25) / log(0.5) years = 56 years

Test the answer:

56 years = 2(28 years) = 2 half-lives, so the remaining amount should be 1/2 of 1/2 of the initial amount, i.e. 1/4 of the initial amount, and 10 mg = 1/4 of 40 mg.

Which of the following correctly describes the flow of commodities in the triangle trade? (1 point)
algol [13]

Answer:

New England's rum is traded for slaves in Africa. The slaves are brought to Cuba to grow sugar. Cuban sugar is exported to New England, where it is distilled into rum.

Explanation:

The transatlantic slave trade was also called the “triangular trade” for the triangles formed by the trade routes. One set of routes carried sugar and molasses from the Caribbean to the New England colonies, where it was turned into rum. The rum was sent to Africa and traded for slaves. The slaves went to the Caribbean, where they worked on sugar plantations.
