The process in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat is called the greenhouse effect.

<span>There are many gases which causes greenhouse effect like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, fluorinated gases etc. These gases trap the heat in the atmosphere, resulting the surface of earth to get warm producing greenhouse effect.</span>

An object has an average acceleration of +6.18 m/s2 for 0.266 s . At the end of this time the object's velocity is +9.90 m/s .
Archy [21]

At the start of the 0.266 s, the object's speed was 8.26 m/s.

The question can only be talking about speed, not velocity.

A water pump pumps 3 kg of water every second from the bottom of a well to the top of the well 50 m above if the pump used 2000
vesna_86 [32]

watts = work per second.

work is mgh = 3x10x50=1500

watts out = 1500

Watts used = 2000

eff=1500/2000=75%

Calculate the force at sea level that a boy of mass 50 kg exerts on a chair in which he is sitting.
kogti [31]

As per the question the mass of the boy is 50 kg.

The boy sits on a chair.

We are asked to calculate the force exerted by the boy on the chair at sea level.

The force exerted by boy on the chair while sitting on it is nothing else except the force of gravity of earth i.e the weight of the body .The direction of that force is vertically downward.

At sea level the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

Hence the weight of the boy w = mg  [m is the mass of the body]

we have m = 50 kg.

                             Hence w = 50 kg ×9.8 m/s^2

                                             =490 N kg m/s^2

                                              = 490 N

Here newton [N] is the unit of force.

1.3 kg of water, at an initial temperature of 25oC, is heated at a rate of 100 W in a well-insulated container. How much time (i
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

68.25 minutes.

Explanation:

Power = Energy/time or

Power = Heat/time

P = Q/t....................... Equation 1

Q = Pt ........................ Equation 2

Where Q = quantity of heat, P = power, t = time.

Also,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁) ................. Equation 3

Where c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, t₁ = initial temperature of water, t₂ = final temperature of water.

substitute equation 2 into equation 3

Pt = cm(t₂-t₁) ............... Equation 4

make t the subject of the equation

t = cm(t₂-t₁)/P................ Equation 5

Given: P = 100 W, m = 1.3 kg, t₁ = 25 °C, t₂ = 100 °C.

Constant: 4200 J/kg.K

Substitute into equation 5

t = 1.3(4200)(100-25)/100

t = 409500/100

t = 4095 seconds

t = (4095/60) minutes = 68.25 minutes.

Hence the time it will take the water to reach boiling point = 68.25 minutes
