ripe
The prevalence of trade-offs is a result of the complexity of the world in which we live. Simple situations do not involve trade-offs. You are wandering through the savanna, you are hungry, you come upon a fruit tree bearing delicious, ripe fruit; you eat one. No trade off is involved. But if you are a busy city dweller, trying to decide whether you should buy a new television set, that is more complicated. There are thousands of other things you could do with the money.
In many ways, yes. When you trade, you take something that has actual value to you, and you directly exchange it for something else that has value to you, usually to the mutual benefit of both parties. What you each have is needed or strongly desired by the other. Money is too far removed from the actual object that has value. "Dollars" float through thin air at light-speed, and their meaning is getting lost. The problem with trade is mostly a matter of convenience. I just ate a perfectly ripe pear. If I wanted to get another one by direct trade, how would I do that? There are too many people, and too many things from too far away, to make trade an everyday experience.
A subsistence economy has benefits that are few and far between, however they do exist. Thus i will proceed to list them. 1) A subsistence economy only creates enough food for its people so no surplus is created and no food will be wasted through any form of disposal. 2) Many subsistence economy's have many resources but not the technology or wealth to exploit aforementioned resources, thus making them ripe for exploitation by rich capitalists, thus driving up the countries GDP. 3) Workers in a subsistence economy are motivated as they must work hard to feed their potentially starving family's, and if they do happen to get fired they will (with almost no doubt) be led to an early grave. 4) There is no shortage of easily exploitable workers in a subsistence economy as everyone wants work and everyone is willing to receive a pittance for the work, and child labor is not outlawed in many subsistence economies. 5) Governments in subsistence economy's are easily corrupt by rich capitalists (and the government can't be unseated by the citizens in any form of rebellion as they are all to weak) which can potentially drive up standards of living in the country if the government uses any of its money to help citizens. 6) In a capitalist economy wants are said to be 'unlimited'. This is the economic problem. But in a subsistence economy all the citizens want is food, water and shelter. There is no time for luxuriating or dreaming. Hopefully i have satisfied your question, and if not this was difficult so stop whining. But advantages of a subsistence economy? What an odd question. On the contrary the only reason I found this was because i am researching the same topic. Have fun out there ~Dylan F~
One's body movement to the side when a car makes a sharp turn.Tightening of seat belts in a car when it stops quickly.A ball rolling down a hill will continue to roll unless friction or another force stops it.Men in space find it more difficult to stop moving because of a lack of gravity acting against them.If pulled quickly, a tablecloth can be removed from underneath of dishes. The dishes have the tendency to remain still as long as the friction from the movement of the tablecloth is not too great.Shaking a bottle of ketchup. When bringing the bottom down, the suddenly stopping it, inertia is what causes the ketchup to come out of the bottle.When playing football, a player is tackled and his head hits the ground. The impact stops his skull, but his brain continues to move and hit the inside of his skull. His brain is showing inertia.If one drove a car directly into a brick wall, the car would stop because of the force exerted upon it by the wall. However, the driver requires a force to stop his body from moving, such as a seatbelt, otherwise inertia will cause his body to continue moving at the original speed until his body is acted upon by some force.Hovercraft are vehicles that can be a challenge to manipulate because, unlike cars, they do not have the same level of friction, so inertia causes the Hovercraft to want to continue in its same direction without stopping or turning.Abruptly stopping a cart with an object on top causes the object on top to fall off. Inertia causes this by making the object want to continue moving in the direction that it was.If a stopped car is hit by a moving car from behind, the passengers inside may experience whiplash as a result of the body moving forward but the head lagging behind. The head is experiencing inertia.If a car is moving forward it will continue to move forward unless friction or the brakes interfere with its movement.When a baseball is thrown it will continue to move forward until acted upon by gravity. The greater the force of the throw, the harder it is for gravity to act upon it.A hockey puck will continue to slide across ice until acted upon by an outside force.A balloon in a car will appear to move when the car moves forward, but the balloon is actually attempting to stay in the place it was, it is only the car that is moving.When a car is abruptly accelerated, drivers and passengers may feel as though their bodies are moving backward. In reality, inertia is making the body want to stay in place as the car moves forward.If an index card is placed on top of a glass with a penny on top of it, the index card can be quickly removed while the penny falls straight into the glass, as the penny is demonstrating inertia.If you jump from a car of bus that is moving, your body is still moving in the direction of the vehicle. When your feet hit the ground, the grounds act on your feet and they stop moving. You will fall because the upper part of your body didn't stop and you will fall in the direction you were moving.When you stir coffee or tea and stop, the swirling motion continues due to inertia.Objects that establish orbit around the earth, like satellites, continue on their trajectory due to inertia.Inertia of rest is an object staying where it is placed and it will stay there until you or something else moves it.If you throw a rock straight up, it will not vary from its direction. This is an example of inertia of direction.Inertia enables ice skaters to glide on the ice in a straight line.If the wind is blowing, a tree's branches are moving. A piece of ripe fruit that falls from the tree will fall in the direction the wind is moving because of inertia.When peddling a bicycle, if you stop pedaling, the bike continues going until friction or gravity slows it down.When pulling a Band-Aid off, it is better to pull it fast. Your skin will remain at rest due to inertia and the force pulls the Band-Aid off.A car that is moving will continue even if you switch the engine off.If a ball is on a slanted surface and you let go, gravity will make it roll down the slope. It has inertia and if there is a level area at the bottom of the slope, it will continue moving.When entering a building through a rotating door, inertia will allow the door to hit you in the back if you don't get out of the way.If you are rolling a cart with something on top and you hit something that makes the cart stop, what is on top may fall off.It is harder to stop a big vehicle, like a bus, than a smaller vehicle, like a motorcycle. There is more inertia with the bigger object.A concussion occurs because your brain is still moving while the outside skull is stopped. This is what causes the injury.Space probes are launched to get past the Earth's atmosphere. Then they coast due to inertia.If you are on a train and the train is moving at a constant speed, a toy tossed into the air will go straight up and then come down. This is because the toy has inertia like the train and you.
Farmers harvest their crops quickly to avoid having it been eaten by pest their need the crops to have full nutrition's :~)
they flood the land and the ripe ones float up
Farmers were typically busiest during planting and harvest seasons. Planting season usually occurs in the spring when crops are sown, whereas harvest season takes place in the fall when crops are ripe and ready for collection. These busy periods require long hours and hard work to ensure successful yields.
Basically the tool would be used for someone to cut and harvest the crops when they are ripe.
The full moon nearest the autumnal equinox is known as the Harvest Moon. Traditionally, Algonquin children would perform the task of picking the ripe crops during the Harvest Moon.
Harvesting
Farmers put fences around their land to keep thieves and animals out. They put nets over blueberry bushes to keep birds from eating them. They shoot squirrels to protect pecan trees so they can harvest a crop and not have their pecans eaten by animals. They try to harvest wheat as soon as it is ripe so a lightning strike does not set it afire and burn up the crop or a hail storm does not beat it into the ground.
Pick them off the tree when they are ripe.
to make it ripe faster because there is something in the rice/rice container that helps mangoes(or fruits) become ripe faster 'this is our investigatory project^__^' Rosalie
whenever they turn red they are ripe and ready to eat
You wait until they're ripe and press the A button when you're in front of them. If you can't tell when it's ripe, then press A anyway and on a day it is ripe you'll pick it. It's not that hard, really.
One other purpose for which Farmer Fitzgibbon uses his tractor in "Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH" is for harvesting the field. The tractor is used to prepare the land for planting crops and then later for collecting the ripe crops during harvest season.
