Greenhouse gases released from the burning of fossil fuels are responsible for global warming.

<h3>What is the atmosphere?</h3>

The atmosphere is the region of region of the planet above its surface area where gases envelop the planet.

Based on the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming;

  • Planet A has a higher surface temperature due to the higher amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
  • Methane is the main constituent of natural gas. Humans increase the contribute to increase in methane gas by raising cattle,
  • Pollutants come from both natural sources and human activities.
  • Sulfur Dioxide is produced by the combustion of fuels in automobiles. Once in the atmosphere, it combine with water to form acid precipitation.
  • Nitrogen and oxygen do not contribute to the greenhouse effect because they are  made up of 2 atom molecules that are bound tightly so they CANNOT vibrate to absorb energy.
  • Greenhouse gases contribute to global warming by absorbing infrared energy that reflects off Earth's surface and reemitting the energy in all directions. This keeps the infrared energy close to the Earth's surface.
  • Most of the greenhouse gases produced come from burning fossil fuels in factories, ships, cars, trains.

Therefore, pollutants such as greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming.

If a sample of air in a school container was heated, would the percentage of oxygen in the air increase, decrease, or remain unc
Viktor [21]

Answer:

increase

Explanation:

Let's suppose we have a sample of air in a closed container. We heat the container and we want to predict what would happen to the pressure.

According to Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

Thus, if we increased the temperature of the air by heating it, its pressure would increase.

If a sample of air in a closed container was heated, the total pressure of the air would increase.

Help! please! hurry! I will mark brainliest if you get it correct!! NO SPAM!!!!!!
Troyanec [42]

Answer: 5.747 * 10^14 Hz

Explanation:

Convert 522nm to m = 522 * 10^-9 m (since 1nm=10^-9m)

If c = wavelength * frequency, where c is the speed of light (3.0 * 10^8 m/s), then you can manipulate the equation to solve for frequency (f).

f = c / wavelength

Plug in the given numbers:

f = (3.0 * 10^8) / (10^-9)

f = 5.747 * 10^14 Hz
