Answer:

Q1- The correct answer is: Many species unique to the islands may become extinct. Those species won't have another place like Galápagos to develop themselves, ceasing to exist then.

Q2- The correct answer is: Their aim is to prevent extinctions. By preventing it, diversity is protected in different places.

Q3- The correct answer is: a gas that absorbs and re-releases heat radiated by the earth. Those gases are very harmful for our atmosphere when in excessively high amounts, because they increase the greenhouse effect.

Q4- The correct answer is: acid rain. Sulfur can mix with water particles on air and be condensed into rain, lowering water's pH and making it acid.

Q5- The correct answer is: stratospheric ozone. It protects us from sun radiation and also transfers heat for us.

Q6- The correct answer is: greenhouse gases. Those absorb and re-release the heat in our planet, increasing global warming effects.

Q7- The correct answer is: enacting air pollution laws. The smog caused by it harmed thousands of people, and this aspect wasn't controled until then.

Q8- The correct answer is: water vapor. It dissipates heat, and doesn't absorb and re-release it.

Q9- The correct answer is: landfill. The other means of disposal aren't as common as landfill.

Q10- The correct answer is: catalytic converter. It transforms the gaseous emissions into other products by chemical reactions.

What happens when exhale

polet [3.4K]

When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. The intercostal muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.

Which best describes a value for density

scoray [572]

Density can be any number, as long as it has the right units.

A unit of density has to be (a unit of mass) divided by (a unit of volume).
The most common one is gram/cm^3.

For the airfoil and conditions in Problem 2.2, calculate the lift-to-drag ratio. Comment on its magnitude.

raketka [301]

Answer:

L/D= 112

Explanation:

Aerodynamics can be defined as the branch of dynamics which deals with the motion of air, their properties and the interaction between the air and solid bodies.

Aerodynamics law explains how an airplane is able to fly. There are four forces of flight, and they are; lift, weight, thrust and drag. The amount of lift generated by a wing divided by the aerodynamic drag is known as the lift to drag ratio.

Lift increases proportionally to the square of the speed.

The solutions to the question is the file attached to this explanation.

Lift,L= qC(l). S---------------------------(1).

and,

Drag,D = qC(d).S ----------------------(2).

Hence, Lift to drag ratio,L/D= C(l)/C(d).

Therefore, we have to compute various angle of attack.(check attached file)...

Then, (L/D) will then be equal to 112.
