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

Jobisdone [24]3 years ago

"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.

Answer:

Protons and neutrons are all attracted to each other as a result - the strong nuclear force. This is an attractive force that only has an effect over a very short range in the nucleus.

If 7 ounces of a sports drink contains 110 milligrams of sodium, what is the total number of milligrams of sodium in 20 ounces o
ehidna [41]

so you just take 110 divided by 7 and then you get the answer and times tthat by 20 and you get you answer which is 314.28 milligrams of sodium in 20 ounces of the sports drink.

An electron moving parallel to a uniform electric field increases its speed from 2.0 × 107 m/s to 4.0 × 107 m/s over a distance
jeka94

Answer:

1.8\times 105 N/C

Explanation:

We are given that

u=2\times 10^7 m/s

v=4\times 10^7 m/s

d=1.9 cm=\frac{1.9}{100}=0.019 m

Using 1m=100 cm

We have to find the electric field strength.

v^2-u^2=2as

Using the formula

(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2a(0.019)

16\times 10^{14}-4\times 10^{14}=0.038a

0.038a=12\times 10^{14}

a=\frac{12}{0.038}\times 10^{14}=3.16\times 10^{16}m/s^2

q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of electron,m=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg

E=\frac{ma}{q}

Substitute the values

E=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.16\times 10^{16}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

E=1.8\times 105 N/C

PLEASE PROVIDE EXPLANATION.<br><br> THANK YOU!!
Ksju [112]

Answer:

11,000 kg

(a) 11.2 m/s

(b) 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(2200 kg) (60.0 km/h) + m (0 km/h) = (2200 kg) (10 km/h) + m (10 km/h)

132,000 kg km/h = 22,000 kg km/h + m (10 km/h)

110,000 kg km/h = m (10 km/h)

m = 11,000 kg

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(m) (-v) + (2m) (5v) = (m) (v₁) + (2m) (v₂)

-mv + 10mv = m v₁ + 2m v₂

9mv = m (v₁ + 2 v₂)

9v = v₁ + 2 v₂

Since the collision is elastic, kinetic energy is also conserved.

½ m₁u₁² + ½ m₂u₂² = ½ m₁v₁² + ½ m₂v₂²

m₁u₁² + m₂u₂² = m₁v₁² + m₂v₂²

(m) (-v)² + (2m) (5v)² = m v₁² + (2m) v₂²

mv² + 50mv² = m v₁² + 2m v₂²

51mv² = m (v₁² + 2 v₂²)

51v² = v₁² + 2 v₂²

We know v = 1.60 m/s.  So the two equations are:

14.4 = v₁ + 2 v₂

130.56 = v₁² + 2 v₂²

Solve the system of equations using substitution.

130.56 = (14.4 − 2 v₂)² + 2 v₂²

130.56 = 207.36 − 57.6 v₂ + 4 v₂² + 2 v₂²

0 = 6 v₂² − 57.6 v₂ + 76.8

0 = v₂² − 9.6 v₂ + 12.8

v₂ = [ 9.6 ± √(9.6² − 4(1)(12.8)) ] / 2(1)

v₂ = 1.6 or 8

If v₂ = 1.6 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = 11.2 m/s.

If v₂ = 8 m/s, then v₁ = 14.4 − 2 v₂ = -1.6 m/s.

We know v₁ can't be -1.6 m/s, since that would mean puck A didn't change speeds after the collision.  Therefore, v₁ = 11.2 m/s and v₂ = 1.6 m/s.
