Airida [17]2 years ago

<span>True. Acid rain is formed when compounds released during the burning of fossil fuels, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide, dissolve in water droplets in clouds. These then fall as rain as part of the water cycle. While some rain is naturally acidic, human activities, like burning fossil fuels, have made it worse.</span>

Answer : Option B) False.

Explanation : Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction between the rain water droplets and the the air pollutants sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide. These harmful air pollutants are emitted by the incomplete combustion of the fossil fuels. When it gets combined with the water in the rain it comes down in the form of sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which is very harmful.

Therefore, there is an indirect relation between the burning of the fossil fuels and the acid rain. So, the answer is FALSE.

An object has a gravitational potential energy that is 800 Joules. Its
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

36.28 kg

Explanation:

Given data:

Gravitational potential energy of object = 800 J

Height from ground = 2.245 m

Mass of object = ?

Solution:

Formula:

P.E = mgh

g =acceleration due to gravity =  9.8 m/s²

by putting values,

800 J = m× 9.8 m/s² ×2.25 m

J = kgm²/s²

800 kgm²/s² = m× 22.05 m²/s²

m = 800 kgm²/s² /22.05 m²/s²

m = 36.28 kg

A student made the following diagram to represent cellular respiration.
Ratling [72]
The correct answer is A, Water is not used up during this process. This is because when cellular respiration occurs oxygen and glucose combine. When this takes place water is left behind when carbon is separated from glucose. Because water is being left behind it is not being used up in this process.
