The comparison in the passage above can best be rewritten as

the passage above is from a comparison paragraph. that is, a paragraph which

discusses the similarities between two subtopics. notice how the ideas in this

paragraph are organized. as usual, the topic sentence is at the beginning of the

paragraph. after that, the paragraph continues by discussing one point of similarity

between the towns of gridlock and subnormal, namely, their small population.

specific details are given to support the statement that "both are small rural

communities." following this, the paragraph briefly discusses a second point of

similarity between the two towns, that is, their geographic surroundings. here, the

paragraph also gives supporting details to illustrate their similarity, namely, that they

are "both located in rural areas."

explanation:

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
