All of Earth's systems interact in complex ways. Describe how human behaviors around energy use have caused changes in the greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere. How have these atmospheric changes impacted the amount of Arctic sea ice? And, how have these changes in the cryosphere, impacted the marine ecosystems (biosphere)? How COULD humans change their behavior to reduce these impacts?

Answer:

Well, most transportation methods cause carbon dioxide to go into our atmosphere. Using hairspray is also another way. Because of the high levels of Carbon Dioxide in our atmosphere, global warming has risen (if that’s a word :D). Due to global warming ice in Antartica is melting and the Polar bears are in danger (sadly). Now I can’t tell you anymore about this topic because I don’t know anything about it (I haven’t learned anything else yet) I hope this helped, and if you knew this information I’m really sorry....Have a great day!

THE​

Answers

Answer:

8.48 hours

Explanation:

Given that:

120 miles = 2.4 hours

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 120 miles / 2.4 hours

Speed = 50 miles per hour

Time taken to drive 424 miles

Using the relation :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time taken = 424 miles / 50

Time taken = 8.48 hours

Why do you think Albertans often defend the oil sands, while those of us who live elsewhere find them easier to criticize?

Answers

Answer:

There are four major issues affecting the oilsands: declining price outlooks, market access, a reduction in investment and climate change pressures.

Why is it important to hear the water for this investigation? What heats the water in the oceans, lakes, and rivers found on Earth?

Answers

Answer:

The water in ocean, lakes and rivers are heated by the Sun, sunlight hits the ocean which is dispersed by the first 1000 meters of the oceans surface. This hot water is mixed with the cold water at the bottom of the ocean by ocean waves and this is the reason why ocean waves are at a regular temperature.

In a lake the water is heated the same way but there is not much water to mix the hot water with the cold so the water in the lake seems hotter than the ocean.

In a river the water keeps on flowing which mixes the hot water with the cold and the temperature remains regular.

Explanation:

Sound is a wave which is created by vibration, and these sound waves can travel in different mediums for example, air, liquid and even solid.

Find the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer: 10.3 I think

Explanation:

Pythagorean thereum

The missing side B is approximately 10.3 units long when rounded to the nearest tenth.

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

It is represented by the equation [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex], where c is the hypotenuse and a and b are the other two sides.

To find the missing side, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Let's assume side B is the missing side. Using the Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]B^2 = C^2 - A^2\\B^2 = 11^2 - 3.9^2\\B^2 = 121 - 15.21\\B^2 = 105.79\\B = \sqrt{105.79}\\B = 10.3[/tex]

Therefore, the missing side B is approximately 10.3 units long when rounded to the nearest tenth.
