Why do natural polymers not pose as much of an issue in landfills as synthetic polymers?

Physics
1 answer:
viva [34]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Most polymers, including poly(ethene) and poly(propene) are not biodegradable . This means that microorganisms cannot break them down, so they: cause a litter problem if disposed of carelessly. last for many years in landfill sites.

8 N to the Lefr and 4 N to the right find the net force is this balanced
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

4N to the left. No it is not balanced.

Explanation:

8 -4 = 4 N of force

Balanced would be if they equaled zero, so 8 to the left and 8 to the right

Tom and Mary are riding a merry-go-round. Tom is on a horse about half way between the center and the outer rim, and Mary is on
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Tom is on half way between the center and the outer rim

Mary is on the extreme outer rim

Suppose \omega is the angular velocity of ride with radius of outer rim be R

\alpha =angular acceleration of Ride

At any instant both Tom and Mary experience the same angular speed

(b)Linear velocity at any instant

v_{Tom}=\omega \times R

v_{Mary}=\omeag \times \frac{R}{2}

Thus Tom has higher linear speed

(c) For radial Acceleration

a_r=\omega ^2\times r

a_{Tom}=\omega ^2\times R

a_{Mary}=\omega ^2\times \frac{R}{2}

Tom has higher radial Acceleration as it is directly Proportional of radius

A new record for running the stairs of the Empire State Building were set on February 4, 2003. The 86 flights, with a total of 1
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Power = 377.35 W or Power = 0.5065 hp

Explanation:

Given:

Number of steps, n = 1576

height of each step, h = 0.20 m

Total height achieved, H = nh = 1576 × 0.20 = 315.2 m

Mass of the runner, M = 70.0 kg

Total time taken, t = 9 minutes 33 seconds = (9 × 60) + 33 = 573 seconds

Now, the potential energy gained by the runner,

E = MgH

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity

on substituting the values in the above formula, we get

E = 70 × 9.8 × 315.2

or

E = 216227.2 J

also,

Energy = Power × time

therefore,

Power = Energy/time

or

Power = 216227.2 J / 573

or

Power = 377.35 W

Now,

745 watt = 1 hp

or

1 watt = 1/745 hp

thus,

Power = 377.35 W = 337.35 × (1/745) hp

or

Power = 0.5065 hp
