Answer:

The primary purpose in creating national parks is to protect the land from development and pollution.

Explanation:

National parks are owned by the national government. This areas are strictly reserved for habitat of wild animals.

The main purpose for creating national parks is to reserve some space for nature. This area is protected from pollution and development.

Thus, answer for given question is protect the land from development and pollution.

Fed [463]
<u>#2</u>
Use the formula ... Kinetic energy = (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

<u>#3 - a).</u>
sun => energy travels as electromagnetic waves => reaches Earth as
         heat & light energy.

sun => absorbed in plants => eaten by animals => animals die =>
       decay into oil in millions of years => we burn the oil to get the energy.

<u>#3 - b).</u>
food I ate for lunch => metabolized into glucose by my body
       => some of it burned in my muscles to generate energy for immediate needs
       => the rest of it stored as fat for future needs.

<u>#3 - c).</u>
flower pot rolls off the ledge => gravity does work on it all the way down,
       producing the kinetic energy it has when it hits the floor.

<u>#3 - d).</u>
oil or natural gas is burned, releasing heat energy => energy is used
       to generate electricity => electricity flows through cables from the
       power generating plant to your home => hot plate plugged into the
       wall => turns electrical energy back into heat energy => heat energy
       is conducted into the bottom of the beaker, flows through the glass
       to the inside surface => heat energy is conducted from the inside of
       the glass to the water, which gets hotter as it absorbs more energy. 
=============================

<u>Note:</u>
#1 on the sheet is wrong.
"Work = force x distance"  that's correct
But 25-kg is the <em>mass</em> of the ball, <em>not </em>the gravitational <em>force </em>on it.
The force on it is (mass) x (gravity), called its "weight".
   That's (25-kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 245 kg-m/s² = 245 newtons .

. Orbit of a satellite It is advantageous to place communications satellites in a circular orbit so that their position is fixed
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

a) r = 4.22 10⁷ m, b)  v = 3.07 10³ m / s  and c)  a = 0.224 m / s²

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law where acceleration is centripetal and force is gravitational force

     F = m a

     a = v² / r

     F = G m M / r²

    G m M / r² = m v² / r

    G M / r = v²

The squared velocity is a scalar and this value is constant, so let's use the uniform motion relationships

     v = d / t

As the orbit is circular the distance is the length of the circle in 24 h time

     d = 2π r

     t = 24 h (3600 s / 1 h) = 86400 s

Let's replace

     G M / r = (2π r / t)²

     G M = 4 π² r³ / t²

     r = ∛(G M t² / (4π²)

     r = ∛( 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ 86400² / (4π²)) = ∛( 75.4 10²¹)

     r = 4.22 10⁷ m

b) the speed module is

    v = √G M / r

    v = √(6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴/ 4.22 10⁷

    v = 3.07 10³ m / s

c) the acceleration is

    a = G M / r²

    a = 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / (4.22 10⁷)²

    a = 0.224 m / s²

DedPeter [7]
E                  S                                                               *

The "E" represents Earth, "S" represent Sun, and the "*" represents the nearest star(which is Proxima Centauri).

The main thing to worry about here is units, so ill label everything out.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = .<span>00001581 light years
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.243 light years

Now this is where it gets fun, we need to put all the light years into centimeters.(theres alot)
In one light year, there are </span>9.461 * 10^17 centimeters.(the * in this case means multiplication) or 946,100,000,000,000,000 centimeters.

To convert we multiply the light years we found by the big number.
D'e,s'(Distance between earth and sun) = 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters<span>
D'e,*'(Distance between earth and Proxima) = </span><span>4.014 * 10^18 centimeters
</span>
Now we scale things down, we treat 1.496 * 10^13 centimeters as a SINGLE centimeter, because that's the distance between the earth and the sun. So all we have to do is divide (4.014 * 10^18 ) by (<span>1.496 * 10^13 ).
Why? because that how proportions work.

As a result, you get a mere 268335.7 centimeters.

To put that into perspective, that's only about 1.7 miles

A lot of my numbers came from google, so they are estimations and are not perfect, but its hard to be on really large scales.</span>

The index of refraction of a clear plastic is listed as 1.89 in the book, but you measured the angle of incidence 63.5° and the
lakkis [162]

Answer:

<h2>index of refraction = 1.69</h2><h2>percentage error = 10.58%</h2>

Explanation:

According to Snell's law, the ratio of the sine of angle of incidence to the sine of angle of refraction is a constant for a given pair of media. The constant is known as the refractive index.

Mathematically \frac{sin i}{sin r} = n

i = angle of incidence measured = 63.5°

r = angle of refraction measured = 32°

n = refractive index

n = \frac{sin 63.5^{0} }{sin 32^{0} } \\n = \frac{0.8949}{0.5299}\\ n = 1.69

The index fraction calculated is approx. 1.69.

If the index of refraction of a clear plastic as listed in the book is 1.89 and the calculated is 1.69, the percentage error will be calculated as thus;

%error = \frac{1.89-1.69}{1.89} * 100

%error = \frac{0.2}{1.89}*100

%error  = \frac{20}{1.89}

%error  = 10.58%
