    preservation and conservation of natural areas. This paper will look at two regions, the Annapurna Conservation Area (ACA) in Nepal and the Mkomazi National Park in Tanzania. The two regions have both implemented conservation initiatives, and have a strong relationship with tourism. This paper will examine community conservation in the ACA (ACA) that draws on Hulme and Murphree 's (1999) idea of “new conservation”, which involves “the merging of conservation and development goals”, conservation…

    law of conservation of mass in part 5 of the experiment, dissolving sugar in water. The law of conservation mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed by can enter or leave the system. The system’s change in mass was 0.00 grams, resulting in support of this statement. The balance had an uncertainty of 0.05 grams. b. With this experiment, we had a closed environment within the vial, not allowing any particles to come in or out, further explaining why there was no change in mass. The…

    The article “Eating Frogs to Extinction” by Ian Warkentin addresses amphibians, particularly frogs, contributes a significant role in the gastronomy of several cultures, thus leading amphibians susceptible to mass extinction. The article begins with a list of factors that is leading to the rising cause of amphibians’ extinction; from environmental degradation to community instability to individual mechanism. These factors include their role as important prey and predators, habitat loss,…

    And we won’t admit it. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature there is around 16,000 species at risk of extinction and 41,415 species that are threatened. Many species including ourselves are in danger if we do not look for a solution to prevent it. In Andrea Wulf’s The Invention of Nature, she introduces Alexander von Humboldt who was the first scientist to notice climate change. Today, it is a big topic since we can see it occur in front us or on the news such as and…

    The first concept to go over here is kinetic energy and conservation of momentum. We know that when something is in motion, it has kinetic energy. This kinetic energy from the ball and bat collide, and for a moment (like the picture) the kinetic energy becomes potentially energy, and then back to kinetic energy in the opposite direction the ball was originally going. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the sum of the momentum of both the bat and the ball have to…

    When I made my initial assessment of this situation, I realized that this collision can be described by the principle of conservation of momentum. Despite the somewhat imposing name, this principle is actually quite intuitive in nature. To understand this principle, I utilize an example from my own life: duck hunting. While some may consider it a rather barbaric pastime, I rather enjoy the thrill of venturing into a marsh in the early hours of the morning and I love the satisfaction of dressing…

    Using physics, we can calculate the mass of a bolt fired from a blaster used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. First of all, we know that these bolts are not lasers based on two facts: they can be seen from the side and they do not travel at the speed of light. Thus, from there, we have to find their velocity. Rhett Allain calculated that to be about 35 m/s. He did this by finding distance and time of various bolts fired throughout the series, dividing the two measurements, and averaging out all…

    Potential Energy Essay

    • 3 Pages

    The purpose of this experiment was to understand kinetic and potential energy and verify the Law of Conservation of Energy. Kinetic and potential energy are both forms of energy that usually coincide with each other; potential energy usually changes into kinetic energy and vice versa. While potential energy results from an object’s position or arrangement of parts, kinetic energy results from an object’s motion. Together, the sum of an object’s kinetic energy and the potential energy at that…

    Crash Analysis: The analysis of crash in this case will look at the speed of the vehicles, braking and any line of sight issues. Conservation of Linear Momentum Speed analysis in this case is determined by the use of several speed equations. The first equation is the use of the formula Conservation Of Linear Momentum. (COLM) COLM requires knowledge of the vehicles weights, approach and departure angles and post collision speeds of the vehicles. The vehicle weights were determined in this…
