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

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.

The forces in (Figure 1) are acting on a 1.0 kg object.What is ax , the x -component of the object's acceleration

a_sh-v [17]

The x -component of the object's acceleration is 2 m/s².

<h3>What's the resultant force along x- direction?</h3>

Forces along x axis direction are as follows

4N along +x axis, so it's taken as +4 N
2N along -x axis , so it's taken as -2N.

Resultant force along x direction = 4N - 2N = 2 N which is along + ve x direction.

<h3>What's the acceleration along x axis direction?</h3>

As per Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration of the object
Force along x axis= mass × acceleration along x axis= 2N
Acceleration = 2/ mass = 2/1 = 2 m/s²

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration along x axis is 2 m/s².

I Explain why you feel cold when tap or well water in winter. state with reason.

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

We feel cold when tap or well water in winter because heat flows from hot body to cold body.

Explanation:

Our body is in optimal status is a hot body and tap or well water is a cold body. Therefore we feel cold.

A boxer punches a sheet of paper in mid air, and brings it from rest up to a speed of 25 m/s in 0.05 s. if the mass of the paper

zepelin [54]

Ok, so you've got to figure out a force F and you have the speed in which the boxer punches on determinate time and the mass of the sheet of paper.

So based on the formula that says that the Force is equal to the mass multiplied by the acceleration => F=ma.
You look at it and see that you only have mass which is measured on KG so there is no problem.
then you have the acceleration which is measured on meters and is defined by: a = Δv/Δt
So now you can replace the velocity and the time you have there
⇒ a 25m/s / 0.05s
you have computing that ⇒ 50m because the seconds were cancelled out.
and then you plug the meters into the force equation.
F=(0.005kg)(50)
F=0.25N
so the boxer will have a force of 0.25 Newton's.

an object is acted on by a drag force with a magnitude that is proportional to the speed. the object accelerates downward at 3.0

Nutka1998 [239]

The terminal speed of the object falling down is 66.67 m/s.

The terminal speed acquired by the body when,

Weight of the body = Drag force of the body

It is given,

Drag force is directly proportional to the speed,

So,

F = CV

Where F is drag force,

V is the speed,

C is the constant,

So, it can be written as C = F/V.

The weight of the body = mg

The weight of the body = 10m

M is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity,

The drag force when the speed is 20m/s.

Drag force = ma

a is the acceleration during the drag force which is given to be 3m/s²,

Drag force = 3m

Now we can write,

F₁/V₁ = F₂/V₂

F₁ is the drag force at 20m/s speed.

F₂ is the weight of the body and V₂ is the terminal speed,

Now, it can be written,

3m/20 = 10m/V₂

V₂ = 66.67 m/s.

So, the terminal speed is 66.67m/s.
