The Earth is a magnet that can interact with other magnets in this way, so the north end of a compass magnet is drawn to align with the Earth's magnetic field. Because the Earth's magnetic North Pole attracts the "north" ends of other magnets, it is technically the "South Pole" of our planet's magnetic field.


If you get a compass and hold a magnet near it the compass will follow the magnetic attraction that the magnet carries, causing the magnet to essentially follow the magnet.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

1.0236 billion metric tons

Explanation:

Given Parameters

Number of cars = 300000000

Average gas mileage per car = 25 MPG

Average distance covered by a car in one year = 10000 miles

CO2 Emission = 8.53 kg/gallon

Derivations from the given parameters,

If the average gas mileage per car is 25 MPG, then the volume of fuel consumed by a car in a year is:

<em>10000 miles ÷ 25 MPG = 400 gallons </em>

The CO2 emission for one car in a year is:

<em>400 gallons × 8.53 kg/gallon = 3412 kg or 3.412 metric tons (note: 1000 kg = 1 metric ton) </em>

The CO2 emission for 300000000 cars in year is:

<em>3.412 metric tons × 300000000 = 1023600000 kg = 1.0236 billion metric tons </em>
