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>

A flat disk of radius 0.50 m is oriented so that the plane of the disk makes an angle of 30 degrees with a uniform electric fiel

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The electric flux is $280\ \rm N.m^2/C$

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the disc R=0.50 m
Angle made by disk with the horizontal $\theta=30^\circ$
Magnitude of the electric Field $E=713.0\ \rm N/C$

The flux of the Electric Field E due to the are dA in space can be found out by using Gauss Law which is as follows

$\phi=\int E.dA$

where

$\phi$ is the total Electric Flux
E is the Electric Field
dA is the Area through which the electric flux is to be calculated.

Now according to question we have

$=EA\cos\theta \\=713\times 3.14\times 0.5^2 \times \cos60^\circ\\=280\ \rm N.m^2/C$

Hence the electric flux is calculated.

We now have an algebraic expression with only one variable, which can be solved. Once we have that, we can plug it back into one

Len [333]

Answer:

A=1

B=-2

Explanation:

Part A and B of the question wasn't given, however, I attached the relevant parts to solve this question as follows.

From part B as attached, it shows that the right option is C which is

2A+3B=-4

Substituting B with 3A-5 then we form the second equation as shown

2A+3(3A-5)=-4

By simplifying the above equation, we obtain

2A+9A-15=-4

Re-arranging, then

11A=-4+15

Finally

11A=11

A=1

To obtain B, we already know that 3A-5 so substituting the value of A into the above then we obtain

B=3(1)-5=-2

Therefore, required values are 1 and -2

In a college homecoming competition, eighteen students lift a sports car. While holding the car off the ground, each student exe

Nata [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Each student exert a force of $F=400 N$

Let mass of car be m

there are 18 students who lifts the car

Total force by 18 students $F=18\times 400=7200 N$

therefore weight of car $W=7200$

mass of car $m=\frac{W}{g}$

$m=\frac{7200}{9.8}=734.69 kg$

(b) $7200 N \approx 1618.624\ Pound-force$

$734.69 kg\approx 1619.71 Pounds$

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

Plsssss asappppppppp

KengaRu [80]

Answer:

20 meters.

Explanation:

In the graph, the x-axis (the horizontal axis) represents the time, while the y-axis (the vertical axis) represents the distance.

If we want to find the distance covered in the first T seconds, you need to find the value T in the horizontal axis.

Once you find it, we draw a vertical line, in the point where this vertical line touches the graph, we now draw a horizontal line. This horizontal line will intersect the y-axis in a given value. That value is the total distance travelled by the time T.

In this case, we want to find the total distance that David ran in the first 4 seconds.

Then we need to find the value 4 seconds in the horizontal axis. Now we perform the above steps, and we will find that the correspondent y-value is 20.

This means that in the first 4 seconds, David ran a distance of 20 meters.
