According to the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change), 1.6 billion tons of carbon dioxide a year are released into the atmosphere due to deforestation. Until the early 1900s, deforestation was the dominant source of increased CO2 in the atmosphere. What has surpassed deforestation as the number one anthropogenic source of carbon dioxide emissions?

The base of a 50-meter tower is at the origin; the base of a 50-meter tree is at (0, 50, 0). the ground is flat and the z-axis points upward. the following parametric equations describe the motion of six projectiles each launched at time t = 0 in seconds. (i) r (t) = (50 + t2)k (ii) r (t) = 2t2 j + 2t2k (iii) r (t) = 50 i + 50 j + (50 − t2)k (iv) r (t) = 2t j + (50 − t2)k (v) r (t) = (50 − 2t) i + 2t j + (50 − t)k (vi) r (t) = t i + t j + tk (a) which projectile is launched from the top of the tower and goes downward? at time t = , the projectile hits the ground at point (x, y, z) = . (b) which projectile hits the top of the tree?
