In two or more sentences describe the impact of fossil fuel combustion on the global carbon cycle. In three sentences or less ex

plain why predicting our future oil supply is controversial and involves some uncertainty. State at least one reason for and one reason against both offshore drilling of oil and drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Compose a complete paragraph. Describe in one complete paragraph how oil and natural gas compare in terms of predicted supply and carbon dioxide emissions.

Answer:

They increase the amount of greenhouse gases, causing global warming.

Explanation:

The combustion of fossil fuels comes with a number of problems. First, there is an increase in the carbon footprint. This is basically the increase in the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide due to human activities like burning fossil fuels.  Fossil fuels include natural gas, oil, petroleum, and coal.

These release greenhouse gases, such as methane. These form very reactive radicals that damage the ozone layer resulting in strong and destructive UV rays reaching the earth. In addition, global warming takes place, with an increase in temperature, melting of ice and rising sea levels.

The drilling of oil offshore disturbs the oceanic ecosystem. It pollutes the oceans.

At the same time, it can be an advantage as forests do not have to be destroyed.

Which best describes a similarity between power plants that use water as an energy source and those that use wind as an energy s
disa [49]
The hydropower plant and wind turbines both uses kinetic energy to produce mechanical power and convert the mechanical energy using a generator to an electrical energy. They both have the process to produce energy but they differ in the source the hydropower plant uses water to whit the wind turbines power plant uses wind. Therefore the answer is letter B.

What are true statements that reflect why infants experience more fluid and electrolyte changes?
egoroff_w [7]

True statements that reflect why infants experience more fluid and electrolyte changes are that dehydration can upset the  balance of electrolytes in an infant or child and the newborn is at risk of excessive water loss and hypernatremia as the result of high evaporative water loss through the skin.

As infants are not used to the environment around , they are more sensible towards problems such as Dehydration because of fast metabolism.

Dehydration can upset the  balance of electrolytes in an infant or child. Children are especially vulnerable to dehydration due to their small size and fast metabolism, which causes them to replace water and electrolytes at a faster rate than adults.

Infants are particularly prone to the effects of dehydration because of their greater baseline fluid requirements (due to a higher metabolic rate), higher evaporative losses (due to a higher ratio of surface area to volume), and inability to communicate thirst or seek fluid.

The newborn is at risk of excessive water loss and hypernatremia as the result of high evaporative water loss through the skin, insensible water loss (IWL), as well as decreased capacity to concentrate the urine.

A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.3 kg of nitrogen gas at 160 kPa and 140oC. The nitrogen is now expanded isothermal
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<h2>Work done by the gas is given as</h2><h2>W = 1.72 \times 10^4 J</h2>

Explanation:

As we know that the process is isothermal so here work done is given as

W = nRTln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})

here we know that

n = \frac{w}{M}

n = \frac{300}{28} = 10.7 moles

now we have

W = 10.7 (8.31)(273 + 140) ln(\frac{160}{100})

so we have

W = 1.72 \times 10^4 J

Jody does long distance running and also strength trains twice a week.
murzikaleks [220]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Jody will have strong bones and show muscle hypertrophy. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Long distance running practiced regularly helps in <em>increasing the strength of bones</em>. Muscular hypertrophy is the increase in mass of skeletal muscles due to the increase in the size of myofibrils or increase in muscle glycogen storage. <em>Strength training exercises</em> performed regularly induce muscular hypertrophy.

During strength <em>training exercises muscles</em> undergo contraction and repeated contraction breaks muscle fibres. New muscle fibres are added as a means of repair and this happens at the relaxing phase of muscles. More muscle fibres are added to <em>compensate the damage and thus muscle mass increases. </em>

give the reason why the horizontal component of the velocity of a projectile remains the same at every point of its flight
Alex Ar [27]
Because ...

-- If you ignore air resistance ... which we always do for these problems ... then there's NO horizontal force acting on the projectile.

-- Since there's no horizontal force on the projectile, its horizontal acceleration is zero.

-- Since the projectile has no horizontal acceleration, the horizontal component of its velocity is constant.
