Alocal government agency wants to build a new office building. in order to do so, they will have to cut down a large area of forest. before the city will approve this, they have asked the agency to hire scientists to study the impact on wildlife that clearing the forest might have. which statement best describes why this study is important?

the city needed to generate some income, and the local community is hoping this will bring in many employment opportunities.
the city needs to make sure they understand the impact on wildlife. the study will provide them with the information they need to weigh the benefits and risks of this project.
the project is big enough that the study is required by law. if they do not conduct the study, they will risk being sued or fined by the government.
the local environmental group is against the project. the study will prove that there is no problem with clearing the land.

Although it isn't the whole forest that will be demolished and cleared out, when not studied beforehand, clearing a core portion of the forest may cause the death of the whole forest. If they had chosen to clear the part that contained a large food supply for animals, then it would cause the death of a large number of animals in that area. Similarly, if the area they had planned to clear was home to a majority of species of animals, then tearing that portion down would cause that species of animals to vacate the entire forest.

Answer from: Quest

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.

Two charged particles, q1 and q2, are located on the x-axis, with q1 at the origin and q2 initially at x1 = 12.2 mm. in this configuration, q1 exerts a repulsive force of 2.62 µn on q2. particle q2 is then moved to x2 = 18.0 mm. what is the force (magnitude and direction) that q2 exerts on q1 at this new location? (give the magnitude in µn.)
