The correct answer to fill in the blank would be:

“a barrier island”

Barrier islands are coastal landforms and a category of dune system that are remarkably even or lumpy areas of sand that was formed by wave and tidal actions that are parallel to the mainland coast. Due to this feature, there are no enough sand blockades to minimize the destruction by Hurricane Sandy.

Air pollution caused by the reaction of nitrogen compounds and other pollutants in the presence of sunlight is
ehidna [41]

Nitrogen oxides play a critical role in photochemical smog. They give the smog its yellowish-brown hue. Indoor residential appliances like gas stoves and gas or wood heaters can be significant emitters of nitrogen oxides in poorly ventilated environments.

  • Nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN), and chemical compounds with the -CHO group are the main harmful elements of photochemical smog (aldehydes). If present in high enough amounts, PAN and aldehydes can harm plants and irritate the eyes.
  • The greatest sources of emissions are power plants, heavy construction equipment driven by diesel, other moveable engines, and industrial boilers. Cars, trucks, and buses are next in line.

Therefore , on conclusion i.e. two gases with molecules consisting of nitrogen and oxygen atoms are nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂). These nitrogen oxides play a part in the development of smog and acid rain, adding to the issue of air pollution.

Can a particle with constant speed be accelarating?<br>what if it has constant velocity?​
Olin [163]

Explanation:

it can be safely concluded that an object moving in a circle at constant speed is indeed accelerating. It is accelerating because the direction of the velocity vector is changing.

When an object is moving with constant velocity, it does not change direction nor speed and therefore is represented as a straight line when graphed as distance over time.
