Answer:

Evaporation of water would increase

Explanation:

This is because clear cutting would increase pore space in the soil which would increase ease of evaporation of water, and removal of plant canopy over earth thereby decreases shading of soil and increasing evaporation.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Evaporation of water from the soil will increase".

Explanation:

Evaporation is the step of the hydrologic cycle at which deposits of liquid water got into the atmosphere by transforming into a water vapor. The level of evaporation is closely related with the surface area of foliage, where the more surface area of foliage the less evaporation will occur. Therefore, if large areas of land experience clear-cutting, evaporation of water from the soil will increase.

A 0.450kg soccer ball has a kinetic energy off 199j. Calculate the velocity of the soccer ball

disa [49]

Answer:

v = 29.73[m/s]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined by the following equation:

$E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2 \\199=0.5*0.45}*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{199}{0.5*0.45} }\\ v= 29.73[m/s]$

Describe the shape of a convex lens and explain what it does to light.

alexira [117]

Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.

30 POINTS PLZ HELP!!!

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since Robert has a history of depression this means that he is mostly worried about his image in his family and friends because everyone wants to look good in everybody's eyes.

Similarly, Robert also wants to be treated fairly well by everyone around him as he wants that everybody consider him normal.

Thus, Robert’s apprehension to get help is an example of a fear of being stigmatized.

On the International Space Station an object with mass m = 280 g is attached to a massless string L = 0.97 m. The string can han

katovenus [111]

Answer:

5.16 m/s

Explanation:

The tension in the string provides the centripetal force that keeps the object spinning in circular motion, therefore we can write:

$T=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

T is the tension

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed

r is the radius of the circle

Here we have:

m = 280 g = 0.280 kg

r = L = 0.97 m (the radius of the circle is the length of the string)

The maximum tension allowed is

T = 7.7 N

Therefore, by solving for v, we find the maximum speed allowed before the string breaks:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{Tr}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{(7.7)(0.97)}{.280}}=5.16 m/s$
