Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that particular chemical reactions could produce electricity, and in 1800 he constructed the voltaic pile (an early electric battery) that produced a steady electric current, and so he was the first person to create a steady flow of electrical charge.

Which describes the greenhouse effect? 1. Earth continues to get warmer over time because it is slowly moving closer to the sun.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).

Explanation:

The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.

When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.

The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.

For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:

--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),

--> Water vapor (H2O), and

--> Methane (CH4)

Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.

I was in Anchorage Alaska during the Summer Solstice. The sun rose around 3am and set around 1 am the next day-- almost 24 hours
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Daylight hours would be shorter.

Explanation:

If there were no tilt of the axis at all, every place on the planet except the north and south poles would have 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night every day of the year.

At a 10° tilt, the arctic circle and antarctic circles would be a little less than half the distance from the poles as they are today.

4. An electric iron has a
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

4.

a) W = 750 J

b) W = 2250 J

c) t = 2 sec

5. Answered in explanation

Explanation:

4.

The formula of power is given as:

P = W/t

where,

P = Power

W = Work Done

t = Time Taken

a)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 1 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/1 sec

<u>W = 750 J</u>

b)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 3 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/3 sec

W = (750 W)(3 sec)

<u>W = 2250 J</u>

c)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = ?

W = 1500 J

Therefore,

750 W = 1500 J/t

t = 1500 J/750 W

<u>t = 2 sec</u>

<u></u>

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. <u>This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.</u>
