Answer:

No agriculture can take place in dry lands due to lack of water.

Explanation:

This is the statement that is not true of dry lands. It is true that dry lands are generally not suitable for large-scale agriculture. However, this does not mean that no agriculture can take place in them. People who have lived in dry lands for generations often farm in a small scale. Moreover, they grow crops that are resistant to this lack of water. Finally, some dry lands are significantly productive due to the use of artificial irrigation.

In nuclear fission and fusion reactions mass is converted into energy. The average person in US uses around 100,000,000 J of ene
daser333 [38]

Answer:

a) The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is 3\times 10^{16} J/year

b) The energy that would be released if a 60 kg person were converted entirely into energy is 5.4\times 10^{18} Joules.

c) 180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.

Explanation:

a) Average energy consumed by single person of US = 100,000,000 J/year

Then 300 million US citizen will consume:

300 million = 300 × 1,000,000 = 3\times 10^8

The yearly energy consumption for a US population :

100,000,000 J/year\times 3\times 10^8=3\times 10^{16} J/year

The yearly energy consumption for a US population of 300 million is 3\times 10^{16} J/year

b) E = m\times c^2

E = Energy from converted mass of m

c = speed of light

Given mass of person = m = 60 kg

E=60 kg\times (3\times 10^8 m/s)^2 = 5.4\times 10^{18} J

c) Energy calculated in part (b) = E=5.4\times 10^{18} J

The yearly energy consumption for a US population  of 300 million in an year = 3\times 10^{16} J/year

Let the that would be supported by 5.4\times 10^{18} Joules of energy be x.

x\times 3\times 10^{16} J/year=5.4\times 10^{18} J

x=\frac{5.4\times 10^{18} J}{3\times 10^{16} J/year}=180 years

180 years would this amount of energy support a population of 300 million.

Why does President Roosevelt compare the situation to a war?
jeka94

The correct answers should be to make the supplies necessary for war. The goal of it was high quality and high quantity production and allocation of goods and materials necessary for the war. This included fuel as well. It was founded in 1942, a few years before the war ended and was certainly helpful for the war effort.
