What conflict exists today between canadians of french ancestry and canadians of british ancestry?

1 answer:

4 0

The conflict which exists today between Canadians of French ancestry and Canadians of British ancestry is that there still exists phonetic tensions, as the country is now officially bi-lingual and Quebec speaks everything in French, while the other provinces conduct mostly everything in English. There are also some French Canadian separatists, who want Quebec to be it's separate country from the rest of Canada.

Please 1) describe what is meant by the terms short-wave and long-wave energy, 2) name a specific type of electromagnetic energy

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

wavelength difference
ultraviolet, infrared
shortwave = Sun; longwave = Earth

Explanation:

The terms shortwave and longwave radiation refer to the wavelength of the radiation, which is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of another. The wavelength reflects the energy of the wave. Longwave radiation is less energetic, while shortwave has more energy. Longwave radiation has even longer wavelengths than red light in the visible spectrum, while ultraviolet radiation has wavelengths shorter even than the shortest violet visible light.
Ultraviolet is not the only kind of shortwave radiation; in fact, it is the shortwave radiation closest to visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum. X rays and gamma rays have far shorter wavelengths and thus are more energetic. Infrared radiation is the type of the longwave radiation that is closest to the visible spectrum. Radiation with much longer wavelengths than infrared light include microwaves and radio waves.
The Sun produces its own radiation since it is a body that is much more massive and with a much higher temperature than the Earth. Because of this, the radiation emitted from the Sun is mostly shortwave radiation. The Earth emits radiation as well, but it is infrared radiation emitted in the form of heat that is not visible to human eyes.

Describe in detail what causes seafloor spreading. Use as many key terms as possible.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Seafloor spreading results from intense activity in the upper mantle which cracks the crust and pushes it away.

Explanation:

Seafloor spreading is a process that was first noticed by Alfred Wegener and was used by him in his theory of plate tectonics. There are three types of plate boundaries; convergent boundary, transform boundary, and divergent boundary. The last one is the one where seafloor spreading occurs.

The convection currents in the mantle are the process that breaks up the crust and move the tectonic plates, and when there is higher activity than usual at some place it results in break up the crust of an already existing tectonic plate. Basically, magma rises at a higher rate and pushes through the crust, in this case, the oceanic crust, and it manages to gradually break through it and come out on the seafloor. By doing so, the magma and the pressure from below are pushing the two now divided parts of the plate. As the space between the two different parts becomes larger and large the density of the crust becomes smaller and smaller so more and more magma rises through. The magma quickly solidifies on the ocean floor and piles up, thus creating an underwater mountain range known as a mid-ocean ridge.

When you ride a bicycle or run as fast as you can, your muscles begin to feel weak and they are sore afterwards. This is a resul

REY [17]

Answer: Anaerobic respiration or Fermentation

Explanation:

When we are engaged in intense physical activity such as running or riding a bike, the muscles need energy to function and they get this from aerobic respiration.

They will quickly run out of the oxygen required to sufficiently use aerobic respiration however and will turn to anaerobic respiration which can produce energy in the absence of oxygen.

As the body uses anaerobic respiration however, lactic acid is produced and builds up in the muscles. It is this lactic acid that leads to the muscles feeling sore.
