Which of the following, if eliminated, would completely prevent the greenhouse effect from occurring on earth?

1 answer:

7 0

The green house gases can be reduced up to a limit by eliminating the fossil fuels and chlorofluorocarbons. Fossil fuels are the major source of greenhouse gases.

<h3>What are green house gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases are those which are capable of intense absorption of the temperature radiated from the earth's surface and make the earth atmosphere warm up.

Greenhouse gases are the main cause of global warming. Carbon dioxide, methane oxides of nitrogen and sulphur are the green house gases.

Fossil fuels are rich in hydrocarbons and they release these gases when burned. Mainly methane and other hydrocarbon gases intensely absorbs the temperature which is radiating away from the earth and thus the heat is trapped inside.

Therefore, by eliminating fossil fuels, greenhouse effect can be prevented.

What do you think would happen to the force of attraction of two interacting charges if their distance apart is halved?

sweet [91]

Answer:

The new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

Explanation:

The force of attraction or repulsion is given by the relation as follows :

$F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

Where

d is the distance between the interacting charges

F is inversely proportional to the distance between charges.

If the distance is halved, d'=(d/2), new force is given by :

$F'=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d'^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{(\dfrac{d}{2})^2}\\\\=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{\dfrac{d^2}{4}}\\\\=4\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}\\\\F'=4F$

So, the new force becomes 4 times the initial force.

An engineer is designing a runway for a witch. Several brooms will use the runway and the engineer must design it so that it is

jonny [76]

Answer:

1170 m

Explanation:

Given:

a = 3.30 m/s²

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 88.0 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

Find:

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(88.0 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (3.30 m/s²) (x - 0 m)

x = 1173.33 m

Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the runway must be at least 1170 meters long.

A square current-carrying loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field B with the plane of the loop parallel to the magnetic field

Radda [10]

Answer:

(A) a net torque but no net force on the loop.

Explanation:

The total force on the loop is zero because the forces on the opposite sides of the loop are equal but act in opposite directions and as a result they cancel each other out. The two forces on opposite sides to the axis of rotation each give rise to a torque about the axis of rotation. This torque is directed along the axis of rotation.
