Answer:

Climate change, where there is an increase in the average temperature, due to continuous human activities. These activities increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Alaska is the largest state in the United States, and it has a cold climate. The climate changed over time as human activities such as coal mining contributed to greenhouse gas emissions leading to global warming. Over the years. the variations in weather leading to climate change melt the permafrost (frozen ground below the soil surface) causing ocean waves to erode the land and destroy property.

W=90 kg×4n/kg<br>Please halp me i need it ​
kiruha [24]

I'm guessing that this is a problem to find the weight of a 90kg mass on a planet where the acceleration of gravity is 4 m/s^2. (Much less gravity than Earth, a little more than Mars.)

Just do the multiplication, and you get

360 Newtons.

A tuning fork vibrating at 508 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s^2. How far below the point of release is the tunin
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 508 Hz

accelerates = 9.80 m/s²

speed of sound = 343 m/s

observed frequency = 490 Hz

f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v-(-v_s)})

f_s = f(\dfrac{v}{v+v_s})

v_s = v[\dfrac{f_s}{f_o}-1]

      = 343[\dfrac{508}{490}-1]

      v_s=12.6 m/s

distance the tunning fork has fallen

y_1=\dfrac{v^2}{2a_y}

     =\dfrac{12.6^2}{2\times 9.8}

     =8.1 m

now, time required for the observed will be

t = \dfrac{8.1}{343} = 0.023 s

now, for the distance calculation

y_2 = u\ t + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

  = 12.6\times 0.023 +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.023^2

  =0.293 m

total distance

 = 8.1 + 0.293 = 8.392 m
