The correct matching are the following:

  • A. magnetic field: prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface
  • B. ozone: filters cancer-causing rays from the sun
  • C. carbon dioxide: retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere
  • D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams: moderates changes in temperature on the surface

The electromagnetic field of the Earth protects us from solar wind by deflecting it. Without it, the charged particles would strip away our ozone, which will lead to the end of life on Earth.

The ozone is a layer in the stratosphere that filters the suns rays. It filters the UV rays by absorbing it. This prevents the UV rays from damaging the surface of the Earth.

Carbon dioxide retains heat in the atmosphere, which creates a greenhouse effect. It is beneficial for us, but because human activity like industrial activities emit so much carbon in the atmosphere that it ends up being harmful.

Bodies of water found on Earth regulate the temperature of the Earth through ocean currents. It brings in both cold and warm air to land which also affect precipitation.

Long explanation, I know, but maybe this will help you out in the long run. Good Luck!

<u>Answers</u>

A. magnetic field <em>prevents charged particles from the sun from reaching the surface </em>

B. ozone <em>moderates changes in temperature on the surface</em>

C. carbon dioxide<em> retains heat energy from the sun in the atmosphere </em>

D. water in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams<em> filters cancer-causing rays from the sun </em>

<u>Explanation</u>

Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps the infrared radiation heat from the sun. It is used as a greenhouse gas.

Ozone protects the earth's surface from ultraviolet light from the sun. This moderates the temperature on earth.

An elevator supported by a single cable descends a shaft at a constant speed. The only forces acting on the elevator are the ten
VikaD [51]

Answer:

C. The net work done by the two forces is zero joules.

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the product of force F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force.  

W= F*d Formula ( 1)

The work is positive (W+) if the force has the same direction of movement of the object.  

The work is negative (W-) if the force has the opposite direction of the movement of the object.

The component of the force that performs work must be parallel to the displacement.  

Calculation of the forces

We apply Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

∑F = m*a  

a = 0 because the elevator moves at constant speed.

∑F=0

T-W = 0

T = W  

Calculation of work done by the forces

W₁ :  work done by the gravity= (+ W*d ) J

W₂ : work done by the tension force=( -T*d) J

Net work done by the two forces(W₁-W₂):

W₁= W₂ .because T = W  

W₁-W₂ =0

The radial velocity method preferentially detects: Choose one: A. all of the above described planets equally well. B. small plan
Zina [86]

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

  • what is the Radial velocity:

The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.

This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.

When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.

From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.

hence we can say that,

option D is correct.

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

We decided to make an iced latte by adding ice to a 200 mL hot latte at 45 °C. The ice starts out at 0 C. How much ice do we nee
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

m = 77.75 g

Explanation:

Here we know that at equilibrium the temperature of the system will be 10 degree C

so heat given by hot latte = heat absorbed by the ice

now we have

heat given by latte = m s\Delta T

Q_1 = (200)(4.186)(45 - 10)

Q_1 = 29302 J

now heat absorbed by ice is given as

Q_2 = mL + ms\Delta T

Q_2 = m(335 + 4.186(10 - 0))

Q_2 = m(376.86)

now by heat balance we have

Q_1 = Q_2

29302 = m(376.86)

m = 77.75 g
