He Chesapeake Bay, which is along the coast of the Eastern U. S., is the largest estuary in the country. Many rivers, including the Potomac, empty into this section of the Atlantic Ocean. During the 1970s, areas of the bay were found to have low levels of oxygen and could not support life. What was the cause of this problem?
A.
High levels of nitrogen and phosphorus from agricultural runoff, sewage, and industrial pollution were flowing into the bay.
B.
The rivers stopped flowing into the bay, and it caused it to dry up and kill the fish.
C.
A non-native species of fish was introduced into the bay and killed all of the native species.
D.
People removed too many fish from the bay by over-fishing, and the ecosystem never recovered.

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

Next a skier is pulled by a tow rope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of 15 with the horizontal. the rope moves parallel to the slope with a constant speed of 0.69 m/s. the force of the rope does 800 3 of work on the skier as the skier moves a distance of 8.4 m up the incline. (a) if the rope moved with a constant speed of 2.2 m/s how much work would the force of the rope do on the skier as the skler moved a distance of 8.4 m up the incline? at what rate is the force of the rope doing work on the skier when the rope moves with a speed of (b) 0.69 m/s and (c) 2.2 m/s?
