Answer:

The questions I would like to answer are:

Will the productivity of the river severn offset the cost of installing the plant?

Is it possible to build a dam on site?

Is it possible to establish submerged turbines in this location?

How would human life and nature be impacted by the plant?

Explanation:

Tidal power plants are signals that use tidal energy to generate electricity. The installation of this type of plant is quite expensive and involves the establishment of dams on site to take advantage of the differences between high and low tides and the establishment of submerged turbines to take advantage of sea currents.

To decide whether I would decide to build a tidal plant on the Severn River, I would need to evaluate a few things to make sure that the project is viable. For that I would ask myself some questions like:

Will the productivity of the river severn offset the cost of installing the plant? (If the installation costs are greater than the capacity of this river to promote high generation of electricity, it would be better to abandon the project)

Is it possible to build a dam on site? Is it possible to establish submerged turbines in this location? (It is necessary to consider the physical and chemical characteristics of the place to know if it is possible to install these two equipment and in a way that they work efficiently)

How would human life and nature be impacted by the plant? (Projects like this include major environmental and social impacts. These impacts must be analyzed and ways to mitigate them must be considered and included in the project.)

Explain how deforestation can cause a disruption to the carbon cycle
TEA [102]
Trees and forest play an important role in balancing the amount of Carbon in the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis where plants make their own food with carbon dioxide, using energy from the sunlight. Therefore, deforestation (cutting down of trees) has an effect on the carbon cycle also the greenhouse gas effect and global warming. Deforestation reduces the removal component of this cycle, thus, increasing the carbon dioxide in the air.

A gas at 400 k is placed in a 4.0 l moveable piston. The gas is cooled to 252 k. What is the new volume of the piston?
katrin [286]

Answer:

2.52L

       

Explanation:

Given parameters:

T₁  = 400K

V₁  = 4L

T₂ = 252K

unknown

V₂ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to apply charle's law. The law states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to temperature provided pressure is constant.

Mathematically,

               \frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} }  = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }

Substitute and solve for V₂

           \frac{4}{400}  = \frac{V_{2} }{252}

        V₂ = 2.52L
