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.

Calculate the radiative and collisional energy losses (in keV/micron) for a 1.9 MeV electron in lead and determine the rad./coll
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

During an energy transfer, the collision loss for an electron can be determined by using the formula:

Q = \dfrac{4mME }{(m+M)^2}

However; from the total stopping power & power loss of the electron;

\dfrac{radiational \ energy \ loss}{colisional \ energy \ loss } = \dfrac{ZE}{800}

where;

Z = atomic no. for lead = 82

E = 1.9 MeV

∴

radiational energy loss = collisional energy loss  =\dfrac{82 \times 1.9}{800}

= 0.19475

b)

Normally, the traditional lead shielding in its pure shape contains high brittleness. However, the functionality of this carbon group chemical element is useful for protection because it has an excessive density.

Initially, the conventional lead protection however reduces the mild clarity at the same moment as plexiglass is useful for light transmittance and readability.

Moreover, the traditional lead with its high density and thickness reduces observation features, in the meantime, the plexiglass is a whole lot higher than the stated.

Finally, plexiglass contains a high dimensional balance with an excessive dielectric constant.

Which mineral is commonly pinkish and has light-colored, wavy lines? A) quartz B) potassium feldspar C) pyroxene D) amphibole D)
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

The correct answer is option B

the mineral which is pinkish and light in color with wavy lines is potassium feldspar .                                                      

pyroxene is a mineral is typically dark in color generally it's color is  dark green.                                                                  

amphibole is also dark in color an is in green color.

olivine is a mineral which is in olive green color.

Quartz is a mineral which is light colored and it is also pink in color but it does not have wavy line.

Capacitances of 10uF and 20uF are connected in parallel,
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The equivalent capacitance will be 15\mu F  

Explanation:

We have given two capacitance C_=10\mu F\ and\ C_2=20\mu F

They are connected in parallel

So equivalent capacitance C=C_1+C_2=10+20=30\mu F

This equivalent capacitance is now connected in series with 30\mu F

In series combination of capacitors the equivalent capacitance is given by \frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{30}

C=\frac{30}{2}=15\mu F

So the equivalent capacitance will be 15\mu F
