Answer:

Tundra Biome

Explanation:

Permafrost is a type of soil that is frozen all year round. It consists of rocks, soils and ice. The ice or frost holds the earth materials together.

The tundra biome lies below the arctic circle close to the north pole. Most of the earth here is predominantly frozen all year round. A layer of glacier covers  the surface and a deep lying layer of permafrost follows suit.

Some mountain tops capped with ice shows this tundra features.

Most tundras are termed cold deserts as they have little to no precipitation all year round. There is absence of vegetation cover as a result of low growing season of the plants.

An elevator accelerates upward at 2.0 m/s?,
amm1812

Answer:

Force the floor exerts on the  passenger is 833 N.

Explanation:

  • Weight of passenger (F_{g}) = mg = 85 × 9.8 N = 833 N
  • Force the floor exerts on the  passenger (F_{N}) = ?
  • For the elevator with the speed as 2.0 m/s the net force is zero, it means that the force is balanced.

                                       i.e. F_{N} = - F_{g} = -mg = 833 N

                                       hence  F_{N} is 833 N

  • If the lift was not at a constant speed i.e. if it had acceleration (m/s^{2})  then the case would be different.

2. A rock is dropped off a bridge. How fast is the rock
zhenek [66]

Answer:

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second, v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,  v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,  v = 53.9 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The rock is dropped from a bridge.

The initial velocity of the rock, u = 0

a) The velocity of rock at 1 second,

   Using the first equation of motion

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 1

                          v = 9.8 m/s

b) The velocity of rock at 3 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 3

                          v = 29.4 m/s

c) The velocity of rock at 5.5 second,

                         v = u + gt

                         v = 0 + 9.8 x 5.5

                         v = 53.9 m/s

Homes with multiple bathrooms have outlets connected in series with a red reset button in the system
dybincka [34]

Homes with multiple bathrooms have outlets connected in series with a red reset button in the system. The reason for this circuit design is to prevent electrocution.

<h3>What is red reset button?</h3>

The water heater's reset switch provided on the upper thermostat of an electric water heater. If the button is on, the switch would have tripped and the reset is required.

To prevent any kind of injury or killing of a person by electric shock is called as the electrocution. This can be prevented only by outlets connected in series with a red reset button.

Thus, the reason for this circuit design is to prevent electrocution.
