Satellite technology has allowed us to monitor areas that were once so remote that we had no way of monitoring them. Review the

statements and choose the one that best describes how we can use this technology to benefit the environment.
Large ocean liners use satellites to aid in navigation. This type of navigation aid is also used on cruise ships. Using satellites can help these large ships navigate waters during bad storms.

Satellite surveillance can be used to aid in port security. Satellite data can be monitored and evaluated by complex computer systems. These systems can alert officials when something unusual occurs.

Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Satellite surveillance has allowed us to map areas that were previously too remote to observe. This helps developers to locate and choose sites for large resorts.

Answer: Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Explanation:

A satellite orbits around Earth. We have different satellites for different purposes. A satellite has transmitter and receiver for sending and receiving information.  For the use of environment, only one statement seems correct that is: Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Rest options are true but not from the environment point of view.

We know that animals are dependent on the environment for their survival. polar ice caps are difficult to reach and monitor. For making conservation plan for the animals residing in these remote areas, satellite technology is very crucial.

Two boats leave the same port at the same time, with boat A traveling north at 15 knots (nautical miles per hour) and boat B tra
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The chance in distance is 25 knots

Explanation:

The distance between the two particles is given by:

s^2 = (x_A - x_B)^2+(y_A - y_B)^2  (1)

Since A is traveling north and B is traveling east we can say that their displacement vector are perpendicular and therefore (1) transformed as:

s^2 = x_B^2+y_A^2 (2)

Taking the differential with respect to time:

\displaystyle{2s\frac{ds}{dt}= 2x_B\frac{dx_B}{dt}+2y_A\frac{dy_A}{dt}}  (3)

where \displaystyle{\frac{dx_B}{dt}}=v_B and \displaystyle{\frac{dx_A}{dt}}=v_A are the respective given velocities of the boats. To find s and x_B we make use of the given position for A, y_A=30, the Pythagoras theorem and the relation between distance and velocity for a movement with constant velocity.

\displaystyle{y_A = v_A\cdot t\rightarrow t = \frac{y_A}{v_A}=\frac{30}{15}=2 h

with this time, we know can now calculate the distance at which B is:

\displaystyle{x_B = v_B\cdot t= 20 \cdot 2 = 40\ nmi

and applying Pythagoras:

\displaystyle{s = \sqrt{x_B^2+y_A^2}=\sqrt{30^2 + 40^2}=\sqrt{2500}=50}

Now substituting all the values in (3) and solving for  \displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} } we get:

\displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{1}{2s}(2x_B\frac{dx_B}{dt}+2y_A\frac{dy_A}{dt})}\\\displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} = 25 \ knots}

You use a lever to lift a heavy tree branch you apply a force of 50 n and the lever lifts the branch
valentinak56 [21]

1.8 is the mechanical advantage of the lever.

<h3>Definition of mechanical advantage</h3>

The theoretical mechanical advantage of a system is the ratio of the force that performs the useful work to the force applied, assuming there is no friction in the system.

The advantage gained by the use of a mechanism in transmitting force specifically the ratio of the force that performs the useful work of a machine to the force that is applied to the machine.

Mechanical advantage is given by the ratio of the load lifted to the force applied to lift the load.

In this case, Mechanical advantage=L/E where L is the load and E is the effort applied.

Mechanical advantage= 90/50 =1.8

Question-you use a lever to lift a heavy tree branch. you apply a force of 50 n and the lever lifts the branch with a force of 90 n. what is the mechanical advantage of the lever?

What is the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter with a word length of 12 bits and an analogue signal input range of 100
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV

Explanation:

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = (analogue signal input range)/2ⁿ

where;

n is the number or length of bit, and in this question it is given as 12

Also, the analogue signal input range is 100V

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/2¹²

2¹² = 4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 0.02441 V = 24.41 mV

Therefore, the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV

How do galaxies vary?
givi [52]

The universe has trillions of galaxies and counting. Astronomers give names to each galaxy base on its shape (e.i, Sombrero galaxy, Milkyway Galazy, ect,.).

Also, the size of the galaxy is taken into account and their color.

A 5 kg block is pushed across a table by a horizontal force of 40 N with an acceleration of 5 m/s^2. What is the frictional forc
julsineya [31]

Answer:

15

Explanation:

mass, M = 5Kg

horizontal force, F_h = 40N

acceleration, a =5 m/s^2

frictional force, F_f =?

net force = ma

net force = F_h - F_f = 40N - F_f

40  - F_f = 5 x 5

- F_f = 25 - 40

multiply both side by -1

F_f = 40 - 25 = 15

the frictional force is 15N
