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.

A 57 g ice cube can slide without friction up and down a 33 ∘ slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring at the bottom of t

beks73 [17]

The springs stored energy is transferred to the cube as kinetic energy and then by the slop the KE is converted to height energy.

0.5 . k . x^2 = 0.5 . m . v^2 = m . g . ∆h 

0.5 . 50 . (0.1^2) = 0.05 . 9.8 . ∆h 

∆h = 0.51 m = 51 cm 

This is the height gained 
Distance along the slope = ∆h / sin 60 = 0.589 = 59 cm 

In the second case, the stored spring energy is converted into height energy AND frictional heat energy. 

The height energy is m . g . d sin 60 where d is the distance the cube moves along the slope. 

The Frictional energy converted is F . d 

F ( the frictional force ) = µ . N 

N ( the reaction to the component of the gravity force perpendicular to the surface of the slope ) = m . g . cos60 

Total energy converted 

0.5 . k . x^2 = (m . g . dsin60) + (µ . m . g . cos60 . d ) 

Solve for d 

d = 0.528 = 53 cm

a pillow , a textbook and a paper airplane are dropped from the top of a tall building at the same time. consider what you have

MAVERICK [17]

A textbook would hit the ground first

Factors:

-Textbook weighs most

-Pillow is flat and fluffy not very aerodynamic) also is very light

-Paper airplane will glide to the ground do to its wings and will hit the ground last

slava [35]

Answer:

f=-1380N

Explanation:

A karate master wants to break a board by hitting the board swiftly with his hand. The master's hand has a mass of 0.30 kg, and as it strikes the board, his hand has a velocity of 23.3 m/s. The master contacts the board for 0.0050 seconds

.the concluding part to the question should be

What is the impact force (impulse) on the board?

solution

from the Newton's second law of motion which states that

the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied

f=m(v-u)/t

f=0.3(0-23.3)/0.005

f=-1380N

f=force impact

m=mass of the karates master's hand

t=time for the impact

v=0m/s final velocity

u=initial velocity

Which strategy should you use if your research question is too broad for the scope of your project? (1 O narrow the focus of res

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

"Narrow the focus of research question"

Explanation:

O Narrow the focus of research question

This is good! You can still use your question, but focus in on something so you have a proper research project.

O Add another research question

Would adding another question to an already broad question help? No.

O Use the very first source you find for your project

If your question is too broad, you should not use whatever you see first as it may be incorrect or does not answer the question

O Change the scope of your project

You could, but if you have a set scope for your project (a) you might not be able to change it (b) you don't need to restart

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)
