How do technology change supply?
It changes supply by how much is bought. The more technology that is bought, the less supply there is. The less that is bought, the more supply there is.
How might the water supply system be different if the city was farther away from water source?
If a city is located farther from its water source, the water supply system would likely rely more heavily on advanced infrastructure, such as extensive pipelines and pumping stations, to transport water over longer distances. This could increase the cost of water delivery and require more energy for pumping. Additionally, there might be a greater emphasis on water conservation measures and alternative sources, such as rainwater harvesting or desalination, to ensure a sustainable supply. Overall, the distance would necessitate a more complex and potentially less efficient water management strategy.
How a water well presher tank and piping with 4 presher tankswork?
A water well pressure tank system, typically comprising a pressure tank and associated piping, is designed to maintain consistent water pressure and supply. The pressure tank stores water and uses air pressure to push water into the distribution system when a faucet is turned on. When multiple pressure tanks are used, they work in tandem to ensure ample water supply and reduce wear on the pump by cycling less frequently. The piping connects the well, pressure tanks, and home plumbing, facilitating efficient water distribution.
How do you allow less water to get in the toilet bowl?
If you want to use less water per flush, you put a brick in the bottom of the tank. You do not want to reduce the height of the water in the tank so much as use less water per flush.
What is is a negative outcome of the technology of vertical farming?
increased food supply

Why do droughts cause more damage to LEDCs than MEDCs?
Droughts tend to cause more damage to Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs) than More Economically Developed Countries (MEDCs) due to several factors. LEDCs often lack the infrastructure, technology, and resources needed for effective water management and drought mitigation, making them more vulnerable to water shortages. Additionally, many LEDCs rely heavily on agriculture for their economies and livelihoods, so prolonged droughts can lead to severe food insecurity and economic instability. In contrast, MEDCs typically have more diversified economies and better access to resources that can help mitigate the impacts of drought.
Why are rates of urbanization higher in LEDCs than MEDCs?
Rates of urbanization are higher in Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs) than in More Economically Developed Countries (MEDCs) primarily due to rapid population growth and migration from rural areas in search of better economic opportunities and living conditions. LEDCs often experience industrialization, which attracts people to cities for jobs, while MEDCs have more established urban centers with slower growth rates. Additionally, factors such as rural poverty, lack of infrastructure, and limited access to services in rural areas push populations toward urban centers in LEDCs.
What are ledcs medcs and edcs?
LEDCs (Less Economically Developed Countries) are countries with lower income levels, higher poverty rates, and less developed infrastructure. MEDCs (More Economically Developed Countries) are countries with higher income levels, more advanced infrastructure, and a higher standard of living. EDCs (Emerging Economies or Economies in Transition) are countries that are in the process of transitioning from being less developed to more developed, often experiencing rapid economic growth.
Is the Philippines an medcs or ledcs?
MEDC becuase its more economic developed country.
Why are people in MEDC's having less children than people in LEDC's?
Birth rate refers to how many children are born per 1000 people, so higher birth rates result from anything influencing this 'choice'. reasons why LEDCs have a higher birth rate are both due to a falling birth rate in many MEDCs as well as increasing birth rates in LEDCs. One: sex and age - If women are within child-bearing age (18-25 I suppose is accurate) they are more likely to have children and less likely to lose the child. This can explain differences between LEDCs and MEDCs as in LEDCs there is a greater proportion of younger women than in MEDCs in their population, which will in turn increase births per 1000 people. Two: Economic reasons. In MEDCs less people are having children, as they give an 'opportunity cost' (i.e. if a family have a child they may not be able to move into a larger house, for example, due to needing the money for raising the child). In LEDCs children can instead be seen as an economic asset, particularly in rural agrarian cultures where more children means an extra pair of hands to work the land. Both are significant; the first in deterring births in MEDCs and the second incentivising them in LEDCs. Three: Social reasons. Firstly, there is evidence to support that with gender equality fertility rates fall, thus birth rates also fall. It is the same with education of women. Both give women a choice on whether or not to have children, making it less of a part of life, which will inevitably lead to some deciding against having children. This is less the case in LEDCs, explaining why more women have children here than in MEDCs. Secondly, it can also be seen favourably for men to have a lot of children, pushing both men and women to have more children to achieve a higher social status (the case in many parts of Africa). Thirdly, if expectations are that half of your children will die before adulthood, you are likely to have more to ensure the family can continue - with higher infant mortality in LEDCs a lot of women choose to have more children to ensure that at least one survives (which is not the case in MEDCs). Finally, contraception plays a vital role both in availibility and willingness - certain cultures will frown upon contraception for religious reasons (many of these in LEDCs), and LEDCs are less likely to invest in family planning, so people are less aware of measures they can take to have less children.
Why do medc's emit more c02 emissions than ledc's?
MEDCs have higher levels of industrial activity, transportation, and consumption of energy compared to LEDCs, resulting in greater CO2 emissions. In addition, MEDCs often rely on fossil fuels for their energy needs, which further contributes to higher emissions. LEDCs, on the other hand, may have less industrialization and lower energy consumption due to lower levels of economic development.
What is LEDCs and MEDCs?
LEDCs are non-industrial nationsMedc's are industrialized nationsMEDC- MORE ECONOMICALLY DEVELOPED COUNTRIESLEDC- LESS ECONOMICALLY DEVELOPED COUNTRIES
Why is solar energy commonly used in Europe?
Most countries in Europe are MEDCs (More Economically Developed Countries) and therefore can afford to invest in solar power. Also MEDCs cause much of the CO2 emissions so they want to cut down and can cut down more than LEDCs (Less Economically Developed Countries)
Where is the line that separates medc's and ledc's?
The line between MEDCs (more economically developed countries) and LEDCs (less economically developed countries) is not strictly defined and can vary depending on the criteria used for classification. Generally, MEDCs have higher levels of economic development, industrialization, infrastructure, income, and standard of living compared to LEDCs. Factors such as gross domestic product per capita, human development index, and level of industrialization are often used to differentiate between the two.
Do tsunamis affect medc or ledc?
The boxing day tsunami affected mainly LEDCs such as Bangladesh Sri Lanka and the maldives. However Newly Industalised countries were also affected such as India and Indonesia. MEDCs are better prepared anyway.
Why is the pace of urbanization different in MEDC and LEDC?
The pace of urbanization differs between More Economically Developed Countries (MEDCs) and Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs) primarily due to economic factors, infrastructure development, and historical context. MEDCs typically have established urban centers with advanced infrastructure and services, leading to slower rates of urbanization as populations stabilize. In contrast, LEDCs often experience rapid urbanization as people migrate to cities in search of better economic opportunities, driven by factors such as rural poverty and lack of employment. Additionally, LEDCs may lack the necessary infrastructure to accommodate this rapid influx, leading to informal settlements and urban challenges.
