Answer

• Improving the environmental performances

• Developing Green Mining technology

Explanation

The effect to the environment caused by opal mining are; impact on soils and geology, clearing of native vegetation disrupting flora and fauna, change in land use and effects of air quality.

Opal mining is currently examining environmental impacts and adopting measures that mitigate the impacts making the process less destructive to the environment.

With the current commitment to sustainability, opal companies are investing funds for Green Mining as a positive way to impact the environment before and after mining.

A radio station's channel, such as 100.7 fm or 92.3 fm, is actually its frequency in megahertz (mhz), where 1mhz=106 hz and 1hz=
AURORKA [14]
The frequency of the radio station is
f=88.7 fm= 88.7 MHz = 88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz

For radio waves (which are electromagnetic waves), the relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda is
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light. Substituting the frequency of the radio station, we find the wavelength:
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{88.7 \cdot 10^6 Hz}=3.38 m

Considerable scientific work is currently under way to determine whether weak oscillating magnetic fields such as those found ne
slega [8]

Answer:

\epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

Explanation:

given,

magnetic field strength =  1.40 ✕ 10⁻³ T

frequency of oscillation = 60 Hz

diameter of RBC = 7.5 μm

EMF = ?

\epsilon = NBA\omega

\epsilon = NB(\pi\ r^2)\ (2\pi f)

\epsilon = NB(\pi\ (\dfrac{d}{2})^2)\ (2\pi f)

\epsilon = (1)\ 1.4 \times 10^{-3}(\pi\ (\dfrac{7.5 \times 10^{-6}}{2})^2)\ (2\pi\times 60)

\epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

maximum emf that can generate around the perimeter of the cell \epsilon = 2.96 \times 10^{-11} \ V

geniusboy [140]
<span>As it is descended from a vertical height h, The lost Potential Energy = Mgh The gained Kenetic Energy = (1/2)Mv^2; The rotational KE = (1/2)Jw^2 The angular speed w = speed/ Radius = v/R So Rotational KE = (1/2)Jw^2 = (1/2)J(v/R)^2; J is moment of inertia Now Mgh = (1/2)Mv^2 + (1/2)J(v/R)^2 => 2gh/v^2 = 1 + (J/MR^2) As v = (5gh/4)^1/2, (J/MR^2) = 2gh/v^2 - 1 => (J/MR^2) = (8gh/5gh) - 1 so (J/MR^2) = 3/5 and therefore J = (3/5)MR^2.</span>

. A lightbulb with a resistance of 2.9 ohms is operated using a 1.5-volt battery. At what rate is
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

A light bulb has a resistance of 2.9ohms

R = 2.9 ohms

And a battery of 1.5V is applied

V = 1.5 V

We want to find the rate of energy transformed

First we need to know what rate of energy is

Rate of energy implies that we want to find power. Power is the rate at which work is done

P = Workdone / time

Then,

In electronic, the power dissipated by a resistor is given as

P = V² / R

P = 1.5² / 2.9

P = 0.7759 W

P ≈ 0.776 W

So, the rate at which electrical energy transformed in the lightbulb is 0.776 Watts

A block is projected with speed v across a horizontal surface and slides to a stop due to friction. The same block is then proje
natka813 [3]

Answer: C. The case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.

Explanation:

First and foremost, it should be noted that the mechanical energy is the addition of the potential and the kinetic energy.

From the information given, it should be known that when the block is projected with the same speed v up an incline where is slides to a stop due to friction, the box will lose its kinetic energy but there'll be na increase in the potential energy as a result of the veritcal height. This then brings about an increase in the mechanical energy.

Therefore, the total mechanical energy of the block will decrease the least when the case on the inclined surface had the least decrease intotal mechanical energy.
