It is because carbon dioxide traps the solar radiation which then warms up the atmosphere, not allowing the radiations to get deflected back in the outer space.. that's what is happening to our own planet the greenhouse effect.. which is also increasing the GLOBAL Temp of our planet too

The table shows the specific heat capacities of various substances. How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 5g o
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Q = 50.25 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation that relates the temperature change with the mass and with the specific heat.

Q = m*Cp*(DT)

where:

Q = energy in form of heat [J]

m = mass = 5 [g] = 0.005 [kg]

Cp = specific heat = 1005 [J/kg*°C]

DT = temperature change = 10 [°C]

Now replacing:

Q = 0.005*1005*10

Q = 50.25 [J]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
  • A magnetic field refers to  the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
  • The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

What is Dark Matter?
AveGali [126]

Explanation:

dark matter is a form of matter thought to account for approximately 85% of the matter in the universe and about a quarter of its total mass–energy density or about 2.241×10⁻²⁷ kg/m³. Its presence is implied in a variety of astrophysical observations, including gravitational effects that cannot be explained by accepted theories of gravity unless more matter is present than can be seen. For this reason, most experts think that dark matter is abundant in the universe and that it has had a strong influence on its structure and evolution. Dark matter is called dark because it does not appear to interact with the electromagnetic field, which means it doesn't absorb, reflect or emit electromagnetic radiation, and is therefore difficult to detect.

gregori [183]
The correct answer is all of the above. In a nuclear reactor, the moderator is usually made of graphite, placed between the fuel rods, and used to slow down neutrons. The nuclear moderator is a medium in which reduces the speed of the fast neutrons.
