Fossil fuels have led to an increase in food costs.

Explanation:

Buried organic material over million of years form combustible geologic deposits of organic materials called fossil fuels that can be converted crude oil, natural gas, or coal.

Fossil fuel are currently used as a source of energy in machine and equipment applied in the farming industry. Mechanization has been made possible due to this type of fuel availability thus larger farms have been prepared for cultivation.In addition, other processes such as planting,weeding and harvesting are currently performed by farming machines which are propelled by fossil energy. So in general, fossil fuels in the farming industry has led to increase in amount of crop harvested because more farms are under cultivation and farming process is now mechanized. However, due to use of machines and energy, the production cost has increased, thus to cover for this increased cost, the prices for food products increases, making the cost of food commodities to rise.

Which of the following factors will negatively impact the rate of diffusion of a molecule?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

A low difference in the concentration of the molecule across the media

Explanation:

Diffusion is a type of passive transport where the molecules move in the influence of concentration gradient of diffusing molecules i.e. from the higher concentration region to the lower concentration region. There are some factors which affect the rate of diffusion, these are written below -

  1. Mass of diffusing molecule - lighter molecules diffuse faster and heavier one diffuse relatively slower.
  2. Concentration gradient - rate of diffusion is higher if the difference in concentration of the diffusing particles is larger in the two regions.
  3. Distance traveled - molecules diffuse faster if they need to travel little distance during diffusion.
  4. Temperature - rate of diffusion will be greater at higher temperatures because the movement of diffusing molecules gets increased.
  5. Solvent density - rate of diffusion tend to be lower if the solvent has higher density.

Looking at these factors we can conclude that the second statement in the question tells about a negative impact regarding the diffusion because due to low difference in concentration across the two media, the rate of diffusion will be lower.

How do scientists decide how they gather information
kogti [31]
The scientific method. When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.

The velocity of blood flow is ________. A) in direct proportion to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels B) slower
Leto [7]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The velocity at which blood flows in the blood vessels is inversely proportional to the total cross-sectional area of the blood vessels present in the body. This means that if the cross sectional area of the vessels low, then there will be high rate of blood flow, and vice versa. This blood flow is minimum in the case of capillaries, where it gets enough time for the exchanging of essential nutrients as well as gases.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A motorist enters a freeway at 45 km/h and accelerates uniformly to 99 km/h. From the odometer in the car, the motorist knows th
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

a)  19440 km/h²

b) 10 sec

Explanation:

v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 45 km/h

v = final velocity achieved by the car = 99 km/h

d = distance traveled by the car while accelerating = 0.2 km

a = acceleration of the car

Using the kinematics equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

99² = 45² + 2 a (0.2)

a = 19440 km/h²

b)

t = time required to reach the final velocity

Using the kinematics equation

v = v₀ + a t

99 = 45 + (19440) t

t = 0.00278 h

t = 0.00278 x 3600 sec

t = 10 sec
