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.

Ann and Carol each lift the timber with a force of 80 kg/m/s2. If they lift the timber a distance of 1.25 meters, how much work
Novosadov [1.4K]
Work is defined energy transferred from one to another. 
The formula for work done is work done = force x distance

So in our problem, force is equal to 80 kg/ m / s^2 and distance is equal to 1.25 meters. So plugging in our values will give us:

work done = 80 kg/ m/ s^2 * 1.25 m
= 100.00 J is the answer.

What is the wavelength (in nm) of
LenKa [72]

Answer:

λ = 0.45×10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of blue light = ?

Frequency of blue light = 6.69×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

Solution:

Formula;

Speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

Speed of wave = 3.00×10⁸ m/s

by putting vales,

3.00×10⁸ m/s = λ × 6.69×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

λ = 3.00×10⁸ m/s / 6.69×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

λ = 0.45×10⁻⁶ m

Which of the following statements regarding glucose is FALSE?a) Glucose is the main component of starch and glycogen.b) Glucose
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are one of the macro molecules that are consumed by living organisms. The end product of carbohydrate is glucose. Glucose is a very important fuel that the body cells used to produce energy, which they use to carry out their daily activities. Glucose is also known as blood sugar and it is the only fuel that living cells can use for the production of ATP. Other food macro molecules such as lipids and proteins can also be converted to glucose if there is a need for that. Glucose is always stored in the body in form of glycogen.

The statement given in option C about glucose is wrong because glucose is a monosaccharide and not a disaccharide.
