One instance of endangering biodiversity is through fishing. Two main contributors to the rise in deep-sea fishing lately are the expansion of the human population and the reduced fishing options available inshore. An increase in population raises the food demand, which in turn heightens the need for fish. Because of the strong fish demand, inshore fishing opportunities are dwindling, pushing the fishing efforts to deeper waters. This may seem irrational, but subsistence poaching is often less harmful to an area's biodiversity than poaching for profit. Those who poach for subsistence are sometimes more considerate towards the biodiversity impacted, unlike those who pursue profit without regard for sustainability, often targeting larger fish and neglecting the smaller ones essential for ongoing productivity.

Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

The typical weight of a human heart is approximately 0.93 lbs.

Explanation:

Based on this,

the heart's weight constitutes about 0.5% of total body mass.

Total human weight = 185 lbs

Let the entire body weight be represented as w and the heart's weight as w_{h}.

We aim to determine the heart's weight for a human

Using the provided information

w_{h}=0.5\times w

Where, h = heart weight

w = human weight

w_{h}=\dfrac{0.5}{100}\times 185

w_{h}=0.93\ lbs

The final weight of a human heart is 0.93 lbs.

Write a hypothesis about the effect of increasing voltage on the current in the circuit. Use the "if . . . then . . . because .
Yuliya22 [1153]

Hypothesis: An increase in voltage should result in a corresponding rise in current because according to Ohm's Law,

I \propto V

I=\frac{V}{R}

Ohm's Law indicates that current is proportional to voltage when resistance remains constant. Hence, if resistance stays the same, elevating the voltage will lead to an increase in current. Conversely, if voltage remains unchanged and resistance increases, current will decrease.

A box of mass 3.1kg slides down a rough vertical wall. The gravitational force on the box is 30N . When the box reaches a speed
Ostrovityanka [942]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) La fuerza neta que actúa sobre la caja en la dirección vertical es:

Fnet=Fg−f−Fp *sin45 °

aquí Fg representa la fuerza gravitacional, f es la fuerza de fricción, y Fp es la fuerza de empuje.

Fnet=ma

ma=Fg−f−Fp *sin45 °

​a=\frac{30-13-23*sin(45)}{3.1}

=0.24 m/s²

Vf =Vi +at

=0.48+0.24*2

Vf=2.98 m/s

b)

Fnet=Fg−f−Fp *sin45 °

=Fg−0.516Fp−Fp *sin45 °

=30-1.273Fp

Fnet=0 (Ya que la velocidad es constante)

Fp=30/1.273

=23.56 N

A window washer on a hanging platform cleans the outside of windows on a skyscraper. The washer hoists the platform up the side
kicyunya [1025]

Answer:

The acceleration of the platform is - 1.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The net force on a body causes that body to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force applied.

Setting up the force equilibrium for the configuration:

ma = 800 - mg

100a = 800 - 100×9.8

100a = - 180

100a = - 180

a = - 1.8 m/s²

This indicates that the body is falling downward.
