Hello!
The removal of vegetation causes the desertification and erosion of soil. The roots of the plants that are inside the soil create a sort of net that prevents the material to be dragged by the water from the rain. They also absorb any excess water that can weaken the soil structure. If vegetation is removed from the soil, the nutrients can be dragged by water currents and slowly the desertification will occur.
Have a nice day!
Let 
be the height of the building and thus the initial height of the ball. The ball's altitude at time 
is given by
where 
is the acceleration due to gravity.
The ball reaches the ground when 
after 
. Solve for :
so the building is about 16 m tall (keeping track of significant digits).
Answer:
(a) 42 N
(b)36.7 N
Explanation:
Nomenclature
F= force test line (N)
W : fish weight (N)
Problem development
(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed
We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:
∑Fy =0
F-W= 0
42N -W =0
W = 42N
(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²
We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:
m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity
∑Fy =m*a
m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity
F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a
42-W= ( W/9.8 )*1.41
42= W+0.1439W
42=1.1439W
W= 42/1.1439
W= 36.7 N
First I’ll show you this standard derivation using conservation of energy:
Pi=Kf,
mgh = 1/2 m v^2,
V = sqrt(2gh)
P is initial potential energy, K is final kinetic, m is mass of object, h is height from stopping point, v is final velocity.
In this case the height difference for the hill is 2-0.5=1.5 m. Thus the ball is moving at sqrt(2(10)(1.5))=
5.477 m/s.
We can't tell without more information. We know it will be higher than 40 and lower than 75, but we don't know exactly where it will settle. In order to work that out, we would need to know the volumes of the water and the cube, and WHAT metal the cube is made of.
