Give two environmental effects of using wood as an energy resource.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Using wood also helps keep carbon out of the atmosphere, helping to mitigate climate change.

Deforestation.  

Explanation:

Trees store carbon dioxide as they grow. After harvest, wood products continue to store much of this carbon. These benefits continue when wood is reclaimed to manufacture other products.

Extraction of wood within the supply areas clearly affects the forest and the environment. Some of these impacts can be seen in the study areas. The rainfall is increasingly irregular, biodiversity has been lost. Communities have experienced flooding and drought, which adversely affects the most important sector in the country's economy, that of agriculture. The local populations are concerned about these impacts, which affect not only the environment but the whole social economy.

Putting a beaker of water in a microwave and turning it on for a minute or two will increase the temperature of the water. Descr
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made

Explanation:

The design of an experiment is to place the beaker in the microwave, with a good amount of water (approximately ⅔ of its capacity) and turn it on for small periods of time, generally the minimum is 30 s, quickly open the microwave, place a thermometer or better yet an infrared thermometer to measure the temperature of the water; repeat this several times.

The advantage of the infrared thermometer is that it reduces the transfer of heat between the water and the thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made.

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The main precaution that must be taken is not to open the microwave while it is on.

Which lists the main components of Darwin’s theory of evolution?
Nataliya [291]

Hi!


The correct option is B.


<h3>Explanation</h3>

Evolution is a biological phenomena which descries how the heritable characteristics of a species change over successive generations. These characteristics change as a result of a mutation, natural selection or genetic recombination (to list a few).

Darwin's theory of evolution explained how this phenomena occurs with respect to natural selection. The theory goes on to explain how a species diverges from a common ancestor into two or more different species (meaning different species may have common ancestor). This is a slow process as it can take thousands of years.


Hope this helps!

How many kWh of energy does a 550-W toaster use in the morning if it is in operation for a total of 5.0 min? At a cost of 9.0 ce
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.0458 kWh

6.5736 cents

Explanation:

The formula for electric energy is given as

E = Pt................. Equation 1

Where E = Electric energy, P = Electric power, t = time.

Given; P = 550 W, t = 5 min = (5/60) h = 0.083 h.

Substituting into equation 1

E = 550(0.083)

E = 45.83 Wh

E = (45.83/1000) kWh

E = 0.0458 kWh.

Hence the kWh = 0.0458 kWh.

If the makes a toast four morning per week, and the are Four weeks in a month.

Total number days he makes toast in a month = 4×4 = 16 days.

t = 16×0.083 h = 1.328 h.

Total energy used in a month = 550(1.328)

E = 730.4 Wh

E = 0.7304 kWh.

If the cost of energy is 9.0 cents per kWh,

Then for 0.7304 kWh  the cost will be 9.0(0.7304) = 6.5736 cents.

Hence this would add 6.5736 cents to his monthly electric bill

What is the distance in m between lines on a diffraction grating that produces a second-order maximum for 775-nm red light at an
8090 [49]

Answer:

The distance is d =  1.747 *10^{-6} \ m  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The order of maximum diffraction is  m =  2

         The wavelength is   \lambda  =  775 nm  = 775 * 10^{-9}  \ m

         The angle is  \theta =  62.5^o

Generally the   condition for  constructive  interference for diffraction grating  is mathematically represented as

          dsin \theta  =  m *  \lambda

where  d is  the distance between the lines on a  diffraction grating

     So  

            d =  \frac{m *  \lambda  }{sin (\theta  )}

substituting values  

           d =  \frac{2  *  775 *1^{-9} }{sin ( 62.5  )}

          d =  1.747 *10^{-6} \ m
