How does deforestation contribute to the greenhouse effect?

1 answer:

7 0

There are two main effects of deforestation on global warming: 1) the "slash and burn" technique used to clear the forest releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and 2) destruction of living trees reduces the amount of photosynthesis, a process that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and stores it in the plants as carbon. Carbon dioxide is one of the major gases contributing to global warming, and increasing its concentration will affect the amount of warming that occurs.

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir

mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b. 11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

$\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm$

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

$\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm$

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm

The position of a dragonfly that is flying parallel to the ground is given as a function of time by r⃗ =[2.90m+(0.0900m/s2)t2]i^

Arlecino [84]

The solution for this problem is:

r = [(2.90 + 0.0900t²) i - 0.0150t³ j] m/s²
this is for t in seconds and r in meters

v = dr/dt = [0.180t i - 0.0450t² j] m/s²

tan(-36.0º) = -0.0450t² / 0.180t
0.7265 = 0.25t
t = 2.91 s is the velocity vector of the insect

A balloon filled with helium gas at 20°C occupies 4.91 L at 1.00 atm. The balloon is immersed in liquid nitrogen at -196°C, whil

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.25 L

Explanation:

$P_1$ = Initial pressure = 1 atm

$T_1$ = Initial Temperature = 20 °C

$V_1$ = Initial volume = 4.91 L

$P_2$ = Final pressure = 5.2 atm

$T_2$ = Final Temperature = -196 °C

$V_2$ = Final volume

From ideal gas law we have

$\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1T_2}{T_1P_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1\times 4.91(273.15-196)}{(20+273.15)\times 5.2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=0.24849\ L\approx 0.25\ L$

The pressure experienced by the balloon is 0.25 L
