A model train running on an inclined track is part of a closed system that has 316 J of mechanical energy. If the kinetic energy of the train decreases from 314 J to 250 J, what happens to the gravitational potential energy of the system?

For the below questions, consider a consumer that consumes two goods, x and z with the following utility function. u with bar on top space equals space x to the power of 1 third end exponent z to the power of 2 over 3 end exponent suppose initial values for income and the prices of goods x and z are y equals 90, p subscript x equals space 10, and p subscript z equals 15 respectively, then the price of good x falls to syntax error from line 1 column 89 to line 1 column 100. unexpected '\'.. what is the magnitude of the total effect

Ageologist is studying layers of rock he finds a fossil of a bony fish according to the law of faunal and floral succession what new type of fossil would he most likely find nicks in the layers of rock above

Apalm springs golf course has requested a permit to install a 40000 f t2 pond to enhance the beauty of its facilities. since the evaporation rates are very high in palm springs, it is likely they will need to pump a lot of groundwater to keep the pond full. the city has hired you (a water resources engineer) to determine how much water needs to be pumped per year in order to keep the pond filled. there is a small creek that discharges an average of 0.25 m3/s into the pond. the outlet valve from the pond releases an average rate of 0.30 m3/s (to keep the pond from getting stagnant). precipitation on the pond is 260 mm/year, and the annual evaporation is estimated to be 105 inches/year. the pond will be lined with concrete to prevent any drainage or seepage from the bottom. using a water balance, what volume (on average) of groundwater (in cubic meters) must be added to the lake each year to keep the pond at a constant level? draw a schematic of the problem to identify the control volume and the relevant fluxes. clearly write out/define your water balance equation and variables. be careful with the units, you might want to work in m3/year or m/year.
