Imagine a 40,000-km steel pipe that forms a ring to fit snugly entirely around the circumference of earth. suppose that people along its length breathe on it so as to raise its temperature by 1°c. the pipe gets longer—and is also no longer snug. how high does it stand above ground level? show that the answer is an astounding 70 m higher! (to simplify, consider only the expansion of its radial distance from the center of earth, and apply the geometry formula that relates circumference c and radius r:  c=2πr.)

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. a) reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground. b) reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. c) biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because is is typically not very effective. d) biological augmentation would take less time to ve effective because it targets the majority of prey species.
