Answer:

Decreases the transparency of the atmosphere to infrared light.

Explanation:

When a large amount of green-house gases are present in the atmosphere, the layer of these gases become opaque to infrared radiation and radiation from the sun get trapped into these gases molecules. These excited molecules radiate this energy into our own atmosphere and that why the temperature of Earth is rising due to the Green-House effect.

Answer:

M_c = 100.8 Nm

Explanation:

Given:

F_a = 2.5 KN

Find:

Determine the moment of this force about C for the two cases shown.

Solution:

- Draw horizontal and vertical vectors at point A.

- Take moments about point C as follows:

                        M_c = F_a*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 2.5*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 100.8 Nm

- We see that the vertical component of force at point A passes through C.

Hence, its moment about C is zero.

zepelin [54]

Answer:

1.98s

Explanation:

The time taken to hit the ground is given by

h=ut+ 1/2 at^2

but u =0

so we have

h=1/2at^2

making t the subject

t=√2h/g

√2×19.6/10

The radius of the earth is 6378 km. What is the diameter of the earth in meters?
Nesterboy [21]
To determine the diameter of the earth in metres first multiply the original value by 2.

6378 X 2 = 12 756 km.

Then convert km - m

1 km = 1000 m
12 756 km = ? m

12 756 • 1000 = 12 756 000 = 12 756 000 m or 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m

The final solution for the diameter is 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m.
