What was carbon in the lithosphere initially a part of before the burning of fossil fuel?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

  1. coal
  2. petroleum

Explanation:

Coal and petroleum are two forms of carbon that are found naturally in the Lithosphere ( the solid part of the Earth that sits above the Mantle). Both coal and petroleum are considered natural resources and sources of energy, and both also originate from geologic transformation of organic material.

The burning of these forms of carbon release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Since it is a greenhouse gas, an increase in carbon dioxide also increases the ability of the atmosphere to retain heat. This is called the Greenhouse Effect.

Given directed line segment KM , find the coordinates of L such that the ratio
poizon [28]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The question is not complete, the coordinates of K and M are not given. Let us assume The coordinates are at K(1, -6) and M(9,-2)  

Answer: If a line segment AB with coordinates at (x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) is divided by a point O(x, y) in the ratio n:m, the coordinates of point O is given by the formula:

x=\frac{n}{n+m}(x_2-x_1)+x_1 \\\\y=\frac{n}{n+m}(y_2-y_1)+y_1

K(1, -6) and M(9,-2)  are divided in ratio 1:3 by point L. Let us assume L is at (x,y), hence the coordinate of point L is given as:

x=\frac{n}{n+m}(x_2-x_1)+x_1=\frac{1}{1+3}(9-1)+1=\frac{1}{4}(8)+1=3   \\\\y=\frac{n}{n+m}(y_2-y_1)+y_1=\frac{1}{1+3}(-2-(-6))+(-6)=\frac{1}{4} (4)-6=-5

Point L is at (3, -5)
