Heat is transferred from the sun-warmed surface of the earth to the cooler overlying troposphere via <u>conduction.</u>

<u />

<h3>Heat transfer from earth to atmosphere:</h3>

Conduction, convection, latent heating, and water phase transitions all help to carry heat from the Earth's surface, which has been warmed by the Sun, to the cooler troposphere above.

Latent heat flux is the worldwide transfer of latent heat energy via water and air currents. Here, we demonstrate how air circulation transports latent heat energy horizontally to cooler regions, where it condenses into rain or is deposited as snow, releasing the heat energy that was previously trapped there.

When air is heated from below by sunshine or by coming into contact with a warmer land or sea surface, convection occurs and the air below becomes less dense than the air above.

A bat moving at 3.7 m/s is chasing a ying insect. The bat emits a 36 kHz chirp and receives back an echo at 36.79 kHz. At what s
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The speed the bat is gaining on its prey is 0.03m/s

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the bat, v₀ = 3.7 m/s

frequency of the bat, F₀ = 36 kHz

frequency of the source, Fs = 36.79

This is relative motion between a source of the sound and the observer.  The phenomenon is known as Doppler effect.

Apply the following equation to determine the speed of the insect which is the source;

F_0 = F_s[\frac{v+v_0}{v-v_s} ]\\\\\frac{F_0}{F_s} = [\frac{v+v_0}{v-v_s} ]\\\\\frac{36.79}{36} = \frac{340+3.7}{340-v_s}\\\\1.0219 = \frac{343.7}{340-v_s}\\\\  340-v_s = \frac{343.7}{1.0219}\\\\340-v_s = 336.33\\\\v_s = 340-336.33\\\\v_s = 3.67 \ m/s

The speed the bat is gaining on its prey = 3.7m/s - 3.67m/s = 0.03 m/s

Therefore, the speed the bat is gaining on its prey is 0.03m/s

PLEASE HURRY 20 PTS
Crank

Answer:

A. The electric field points to the left because the force on a negative charge is opposite to the direction of the field.

Explanation:

The electric force exerted on a charge by an electric field is given by:

where

F is the force

q is the charge

E is the electric field

We see that if the charge is negative, q contains a negative sign, so the force F and the electric field E will have opposite signs (which means they have opposite directions). This is due to the fact that the direction of the lines of an electric field shows the direction of the electric force experienced by a positive charge in that electric field: therefore, a negative charge will experience a force into opposite direction.

Which describes how to generate a real image of an object using a concave mirror?The object must be closer to the mirror than th
iren2701 [21]
In order to form a real image using a concave mirror, the object must be placed beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Therefore, the object must be further from the mirror than the focal point. The image that will form will be real, but it will also be inverted and its magnification will be less than 1, meaning it will be smaller than the actual object.
