Answer:

Deforestation makes soil more vulnerable because there are no trees to hold it in place.

Fossil fuels releases greenhouse gasses because of carbon dioxide being trapped in the atmosphere.

Fertilizers and pesticides can be toxic and pollutes land.

I hope this helped! :-)

Answer:

Fossil fuel combustion: It discharges greenhouse gases into the air. The hydrocarbons, mainly the fuel oil, coal, or natural gas, produced from the remnants of dead animals and plants are known as fossil fuels. The combustion of fossil fuels is one of the biggest sources of carbon dioxide emission in the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases resulting in global warming.  

Use of fertilizers and pesticides: The application of fertilizers and pesticides pollutes the soil that is fertile, due to the presence of toxic constituents in them.  

Deforestation: It makes the soil more susceptible to the process of erosion as the trees play the role of holding the soil together.

What happens to a person's weight on smaller and larger planets?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The amount of gravity they have depends on their size. So, a small planet has less and a larger planet has more gravity. Just like the planets, a person with more mass has more gravity and therefore weighs more.

Typical residential shower controls mix streams of hot water (140 F, or 60 C) with cold water (60 F, or 15 C) to form a stream o
sammy [17]

Answer:

  4:5

Explanation:

Let x represent the fraction of the mix that is hot water. Then the temperature of the mix is ...

  60x +15(1-x) = 40·1

  45x = 25 . . . . . . . . . subtract 15

  x = 25/45 = 5/9 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

This is the fraction that is hot water, so the fraction that is cold water is ...

  1-5/9 = 4/9

The ratio of cold to hot is ...

  cold : hot = (4/9) : (5/9) = 4 : 5

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

The problem assumes that the energy contained in a given mass of water is proportional to its temperature. That is almost true, sufficiently so that we can reasonably use that approximation.

If heat loss is figured into the problem, then additional information is needed regarding the energy content of water at temperatures in the range of interest. That is not provided by this problem statement, so we have ignored the heat loss.
