[O.04H]The table below shows the use of some energy production methods over time. Type of energy Average energy used annually in the past (in million tons) Average energy used annually at present (in million tons) Average energy most likely to be used annually in the future (in million tons)
Oil 200 4000 300
Gas 100 2500 700
Coal 1000 2500 1500
Wind 0.1 50 2000
Hydropower 0.7 60 150
Tidal power 0.02 50 500

Based on the table, which of these statements best describes the impact of different methods of energy production on the environment in the past?
There was a rise in the height of tides.
There was a rise in greenhouse gases.
The coastal ecosystem was harmed.
The coastal areas were highly polluted.

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.

(a) assume the equation x = at^3 + bt describes the motion of a particular object, with x having the dimension of length and t having the dimension of time. determine the dimensions of the constants a and b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.) (b) determine the dimensions of the derivative dx/dt = 3at^2 + b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.)
