Pollution is always a consequence of exploitation of resources.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

In the classical Drude model of electricity, resistance occurs because the charge carriers, which are accelerated due to electric forces, collide with the atoms of the metal wire, causing them to bounce backward.
 
  What should you expect the Drude model to predict for the relative resistance of two materials, one of which has twice as many atoms in each cubic meter of material?

Answer to Question 1

There must be a disturbance locally to exploit a resource. There will at least be a
local pollution problem for most extraction unless great care is exercised. Some examples
of successful reduction of pollution may include pumping of saline water from oil wells
back into the formation, pumping mineral-laden brine back underground after exploiting
hot, wet steam, etc. These shining examples are currently the exception.

Answer to Question 2

Because there are more opportunities for collisions with twice as many atoms in
each volume, we would expect the resistivity (and the resistance) to be double that of the
material with fewer atoms per cubic meter.

Blood is approximately twice as thick as water because of the cells and other components found in it.

Adults are resistant to the bacterium that causes Botulism. These bacteria thrive in honey – therefore, honey should never be given to infants since their immune systems are not yet resistant.

Did you know?

Certain chemicals, after ingestion, can be converted by the body into cyanide. Most of these chemicals have been removed from the market, but some old nail polish remover, solvents, and plastics manufacturing solutions can contain these substances.

Did you know?

Ether was used widely for surgeries but became less popular because of its flammability and its tendency to cause vomiting. In England, it was quickly replaced by chloroform, but this agent caused many deaths and lost popularity.

Did you know?

Interferon was scarce and expensive until 1980, when the interferon gene was inserted into bacteria using recombinant DNA technology, allowing for mass cultivation and purification from bacterial cultures.
