Satellite technology has allowed us to monitor areas that were once so remote that we had no way of monitoring them. Review the

statements and choose the one that best describes how we can use this technology to benefit the environment.
Large ocean liners use satellites to aid in navigation. This type of navigation aid is also used on cruise ships. Using satellites can help these large ships navigate waters during bad storms.

Satellite surveillance can be used to aid in port security. Satellite data can be monitored and evaluated by complex computer systems. These systems can alert officials when something unusual occurs.

Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Satellite surveillance has allowed us to map areas that were previously too remote to observe. This helps developers to locate and choose sites for large resorts.

Answer: Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Explanation:

A satellite orbits around Earth. We have different satellites for different purposes. A satellite has transmitter and receiver for sending and receiving information.  For the use of environment, only one statement seems correct that is: Satellite technology allows us to monitor and track the changes in the polar ice sheets. This can help us plan and direct conservation efforts for the animals that depend on polar ice in order to survive.

Rest options are true but not from the environment point of view.

We know that animals are dependent on the environment for their survival. polar ice caps are difficult to reach and monitor. For making conservation plan for the animals residing in these remote areas, satellite technology is very crucial.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

866.92 N

Explanation:

mass of shark, m = 92 kg

density, d = 1040 kg/m^3

Volume, V = mass / density

V = 92 / 1040 = 0.08846 kg/m^3

The lift force is the buoyant force acting on the shark is

Lift force = Volume x density of water x g

Lift force = 0.08846 x 1000 x 9.8

Lift force = 866.92 N

Thus, the lift force is  866.92 N.

In a car crash, large accelerations of the head can lead to severe injuries or even death. A driver can probably survive an acce
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

0.22 m

Explanation:

We are told that the driver can survive an acceleration of 50g only if the collision lasts no longer than 30 ms. So,

t = 30 ms = 0.030 s

The acceleration is

a=-50g = -50(9.8)=-490 m/s^2

where the negative sign is due to the fact that this is a deceleration, since the driver comes to a stop in the collision.

First of all, we can find what the initial velocity of the car should be in this conditions by using the equation:

v=u+at

And since the final velocity is zero, v=0, and solving for u,

u=-at=-490(0.030)=14.7 m/s

And now we can find the corresponding distance travelled using the equation:

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2 = (14.7)(0.030)+\frac{1}{2}(-490)(0.030)^2=0.22 m

Suppose that a barometer was made using oil with rho=900 kg/m3. What is the height of the barometer at atmospheric pressure?
rewona [7]

Hey there!

The pressure under a liquid column can be , calculated using  the following formula :

P = p x g x h  

P atm = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = ?

h =  P / ( p x g ) =

h= ( 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa ) / ( 900 x 9.8 ) =

h = ( 1.013 x 10⁵ ) / ( 8820 ) =

h = 11.48 m ≈  11.50 m

Hope this helps!

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The rate at which the energy of a system is transformed

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which energy of a system is transformed or the rate at which work is done. It is defined by Power = Workdone/time taken

Its unit is the Watt denoted by the letter W.

For example, assuming a work of 200 J is done in 10 s, then Power, P equals

P = workdone/time taken = 200 J/10 s = 20 J/s = 20 W
