Answer: An erosion of soil which enters waterways

Explanation:

Acidic water is more poisonous to human, animal and plant life so if acidic water were to wash into a river that humans drink, the health risks posed to those humans would increase.

If there were plants and animals connected to the river, the risks to them would increase as well and disrupt their life cycle.

Acidic water does not make water more or less capable of soil erosion so the water being acidic would not contribute to soil erosion.

When map scale is expressed as a ratio of map distance to ground distance (i.e., map distance:ground distance), there is an inve
den301095 [7]

Answer: True

Explanation:

The ratio of the map distance to ground distance usually involves the use of inverse relationship between the extent of coverage of the entire map and the amount of detail visible. And this relationship is always written as 1/x or 1:x.

Where the numerator represents the map distance which always equals 1 and the denominator represents the ground distance which has similar units as the numerator.

it is possible for two stars to have different temperatures and different sizes but the same luminosity. explain how.
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Two stars (a and b) can have the same luminosity, but different surface area and temperature if the following condition is met:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

Explanation:

The luminosity of a star is the total energy that produces in one second. It depends on the size of the star and its surface temperature.

L = σ(T^4)(4πR^2)

L is the luminosity f the star, T is the temperature of the surface of the star and R is its radius.  

Two stars can have the same luminosity if the relation between the radius and the surface temperature is maintained.  

To see this lets suposed you have 2 stars, a and b, and the luminosities of each one of them:

L_a = σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2)

L_b = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

you can assume that L_a and L_b are equal:

σ(T_a^4)(4πR_a^2) = σ(T_b^4)(4πR_b^2)

Now, you can cancel the constants:

(T_a^4)(R_a^2) = (T_b^4)(R_b^2)

as long as this relation between a and b is true, then the luminosity can be the same.
