Can carrying capacity change with time?

Yes, carrying capacity can change with time due to factors such as environmental changes, resource availability, and population dynamics. For example, a decrease in resources or an increase in competition can lower carrying capacity, while habitat restoration or improved technology can raise carrying capacity.


Is sunrise astronomical time for raising the flag in the morning or when you can see the sun?

The answer would depend on who is flying the flag, and which flag. In US military tradition, the American flag is raised at 8 AM (or, the beginning of normal working hours, when different) and is lowered at sunset. There are MANY exceptions. For example, the flag may be flown 24 hours per day if it is illuminated.


How does the flag fly away from the flagpole?

The flag pole is high enough for there to be enough wind to catch it and keep it flapping for an indefinite amount of time.


How can you change the pitch produced by a vibrating string?

To raise the pitch (frequency), put more tension on one end of the string. To lower the pitch, put less tension on one end of the string. For instance, on a guitar, tighten the string for a higher pitch. Loosen the string for a lower pitch. Additionally, if you have a guitar string already mounted and tensioned. You may place your finger in the middle of the string, and the pitch will go up one octave. Each time you halve a tensioned string, it produces a pitch one octave higher.

What rules must be followed when a person raises and lowers the flag?

Here is a little info there is something in the flag code about this.... it says to raise the flag briskly and lower it ceremoniously... for a regular sized pole of 20/25 ft it would take a minute to lower the flag down from the top. in Disney world they have a flag on a pole (not sure how tall pole is ) and they do a flag lowering ceremony evey day and have a band play the star spangled banner and in that time they lower the flag and un hook it from the halyard and play your a grand old flag with they fold it up. (seen vids of this on youtube) you are right. if there more than one flag on separate poles the US flag is raised 1st and lowered last i wonder where on earth these people got the raising and lowering speed mixed up?? it is raiseds quickly to get to the top of the pole and flying and lowered slowly to apparnelty show reluctance at wanting to take the flag down.

Why doesnt the flag in halo reach change to race flag?

It wasn't designed this way. There is only so much the game developers can predict. And they have only so much time. Race-flag functionality for a regular flag doesn't seem very useful, since ctf doesn't use race points.
