4 0

Answer:

Some of the effects of a dam on the environment includes;

1) Increase in the amount of the greenhouse gases

2) Removal of the natural wetland and ocean carbon sinks

3) Disruption of the sources of nutrients in the ecosystem

4) Destruction of habitats

5) Raising of the sea levels and waste waters

6) Displace villages and communities

7) Dams have a potential to create flood risk

8) Dams lead to increased water loss due to evaporation and transpiration

9) Dams causes earthquakes

Explanation:

Dams are a source of renewable energy and are a means to prevent floods, however, dams can also have detrimental impact on the climate and the environment.

Is light fastest than speed and why.
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There is no limit to how fast the universe can expand, says physicist Charles Bennett of Johns Hopkins University. Einstein's theory that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum still holds true, because space itself is stretching, and space is nothing.

Compare and contrast scientific inquiry "skill and process".
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The inquiry process takes advantage of the natural human desire to make sense of the world... This attitude of curiosity permeates the inquiry process and is the fuel that allows it to continue. Process skills are not used for their own sake.

Two cars are moving towards each other and sound emitted by first car with real frequency of 3000 hertz is detected by a person
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

 v ’= 21.44 m / s

Explanation:

This is a doppler effect exercise that changes the frequency of the sound due to the relative movement of the source and the observer, the expression that describes the phenomenon for body approaching s

           f ’= f (v + v₀) / (v-v_{s})

where it goes is the speed of sound 343 m / s, v_{s} the speed of the source v or the speed of the observer

in this exercise both the source and the observer are moving, we will assume that both have the same speed,

                v₀ = v_{s} = v ’

we substitute

               f ’= f (v + v’) / (v - v ’)

               f ’/ f (v-v’) = v + v ’

               v (f ’/ f -1) = v’ (1 + f ’/ f)

               v ’= (f’ / f-1) / (1 + f ’/ f) v

               v ’= (f’-f) / (f + f’) v

let's calculate

                v ’= (3400 -3000) / (3000 +3400) 343

                v ’= 400/6400 343

                v ’= 21.44 m / s
