Answer:

Solar Impulse is a Swiss long-range experimental solar-powered aircraft project and Conventional Aircraft are the atmosphere-only aircraft that have been around since the Wright Flyer's first takeoff. Though modern craft are much more advanced and capable than that early model, Conventional Aircraft have been superseded in modern times by the AeroSpace Fighter, which can operate in both atmosphere and space.

Reduce the friction. Since the total energy is conserved, the only way to improve its work capacity is by reducing energy that doesnt go into work.

Identify each picture as either an inelastic collision or elastic collision

Ivan

Answer:

Inelastic collision:

A collision in which there is a loss of Kinetic Energy due to internal friction of the bodies colliding.

Characteristics of an inelastic collision:

the momentum of the system is conserved
the momentum of the system is conservedloss of kinetic energy

In a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies that collide with each other stick together.

Elastic collision:

A collision in which the kinetic energy of the two bodies, before and after the collision, remains the same.

Characteristics of elastic collision:

the momentum of the system is conserved
no loss of kinetic energy

In everyday life, no collision is perfectly elastic.

__________________

ANSWER:

Given examples:

Two cars colliding with each other form an example of inelastic collision.

Reason:

(They lose kinetic energy and come to a stop after the collision.)

A ball bouncing after colliding with a surface is an example of elastic collision

Reason:

(a very less amount of kinetic energy is lost)

How to calculate displacement?

Blizzard [7]

-- Take a straight ruler.

-- Lay it down with the 'zero' mark at the start point.

-- Rotate it around the start point until the end point is also touching the edge of the ruler.

-- From the marks on the ruler, read the straight-line distance from the start point to the end point.

-- Without moving the ruler, observe and write down the DIRECTION from the start point to the end point.

-- The Displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from the start point to the end point.

Answer:

What are some ways we can improve on our land use?

- Avoid deforestation and close the forest frontier.

The first-order priority is to end deforestation by closing the "forest frontier" or intact forests, to development.

- Increase agricultural productivity.

- Restore forests and landscapes.

- Reduce food loss and waste.

- Improve diets

If a population is growing what can you conclude about the ammount of resources available

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Generally speaking, as the human population grows, our consumption of natural resources increases. More humans consume more freshwater, more land, more clothing, etc. ... For example, natural gas plants have become increasingly more efficient, thus humans are able to obtain more energy out of the same amount of gas.

Rapid population growth is detrimental to achieving economic and social progress and to sustainable management of the natural resource base. But there remains a sizeable gap between the private and social interest in fertility reduction, and this gap needs to be narrowed.
