It is believed that increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will result in

Physics
1 answer:
Jobisdone [24]3 years ago
8 0

"Belief" is not involved.  

<em>Choice-A</em> is the correct answer. Except that it's not "... will result in ...".  It's already happening.

The people who have been keeping records of temperatures at a thousand places around the world, for the past hundred years, do not "believe".  They know that average global temperatures are increasing, and have been increasing steadily for a couple of Centuries now.

Working from hypotheses, models, observations, and proven laws of nature, the global scientific community are convinced that increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, driven by human activity, are the cause of the trend in average global temperatures.

Yes, you can find published researchers who aren't so sure, and who disagree with this conclusion.  The scientific community is <em>never</em> 100% unanimous.  There were reasonable investigators and scientific observers who disagreed with Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Maxwell, Hawking and Einstein, in their time.  

But the voices that dispute human-caused climate change in the form of global warming are few, and they're becoming fewer as time goes on. Today, their reputation sits just a few notches above that of the Flat-Earthers, and it's continuing to sag further.

If we are to do what has to be done, in time to bring about the needed effect, it can't sag fast enough.

A nucleus with a mass number of 64 has a mean radius of about: _________.
dangina [55]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass number is A= 64

Generally the mean radius is mathematically evaluated as

R  =  R_o A^{\frac{1}{3} }

Here R_o is a constant with a value  R_o =1.2*10^{-15}

So  

     R  =  1.2*10^{-15} *  64^{\frac{1}{3} }

      R  =   4.8 *10^{-15}

        R  =   4.8\ fm

A weight lifter lifts a dumbbell a certain height in 2.0 s, while a competitor does the same workin 1.0 s. Compared to the power
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a. one-half as great

Explanation:

The power developed by the first lifter is one-half as great as that of the second person.

  Power is defined as the rate at which work is done;

          Power  = \frac{workdone}{time}

Since the two lifters do the same work at different time, let us estimate their power;

       P₁ = \frac{workdone}{2}                     P₂ = \frac{workdone }{1}

   We see that for P₁, power is half of the work done whereas in P₂ power is the same as the work done.

Therefore,

           The power of the first weight lifter is one-half the second lifter.

Microwave ovens emit microwave energy with a wavelength of 12.2 cm. What is the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave r
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength of the photon

In this problem, we have a microwave photon with wavelength

\lambda=12.2 cm=0.122 m

Substituting into the equation, we find its energy:

E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{0.122 m}=1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J
