While analyzing the data found from a ballistic pendulum experiment‚ the Law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy and the Law of Conservation of Momentum both need to be utilized. The involvement of both of these physical laws struck the group ’s immediate interest because of the pertinence to what had been being learned in class. The two previous laws were

Thus‚ there should be a good management of the ecosystems to prevent dire consequences as a result of overexploitation. One potential management plan is the conservation of resources in the ecosystems by regulating exploitation activities. In this respect‚ exploitation licenses should be required and exploitation should

Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services

The management of population size refers to the acceptable amount of deer that can live in the surrounding areas. The importance of managing deer populations stems from the successful nature of the white – tailed deer‚ and their ability to flourish in an environment (Department of Environmental Conservation‚ nd). The deer also impact the humans that live within close proximity. These effects
