Answer: Conduction

Explanation: As ice melts,more sunlight is absorbed,as more sunlight is absorbed,the atmosphere heats up,as the atmosphere heats up,more ice melts. This whole process is known as CONDUCTION.

Conduction occurs when there is different temperature between two materials, when there exist a transfer energy(i.e transfer from higher-energy atoms in the hot region to the lower-energy atoms in the cold region). When the atmosphere is heated up due to sunlight,there is a rise in temperature which makes the ice to melt due to transfer of warmth it absorbed from sunlight.

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a)   S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2 ,  

b)and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

c) the direction of the positive x axis

Explanation:

a) The Poynting vector or intensity of an electromagnetic wave is

          S = 1 /μ₀ E x B

if we use that the fields are in phase

          B = E / c

we substitute

         S = E² /μ₀ c

let's calculate

        s = 941 2 / (4π 10⁻⁷  3 10⁸)

        S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2

 

b) the two fields are perpendicular to each other and in the direction of propagation of the radiation

In this case, the electro field is in the y direction and the wave propagates in the ax direction, so the magnetic cap must be in the y-axis direction, and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

C) The poynting electrode has the direction of the electric field, by which or which should be in the direction of the positive x axis
