What is the total precentage of radiation that is reflected by earths atmosphere

Physics
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago
6 0

Around 48 % of the incoming solar energy passes through the atmospheric layer of the earth. The water vapor,ozone and dust present in the atmosphere absorbs 23 percent of incoming solar energy .Thus about 71% of the incoming solar radiation is absorbed by the earth. The rest 29% of the incoming solar radiation is reflected back into the space.

PLEASEE I NEED HELP FAST!!! .Study the scenario.A small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large contain
RSB [31]

Answer:

that best describes the process is C

Explanation:

This problem is a calorimeter process where the heat given off by one body is equal to the heat absorbed by the other.

Heat absorbed by the smallest container

             Q_c = m ce (T_{f}-T₀)

Heat released by the largest container is

              Q_a = M ce (T_{i}-T_{f})

how

        Q_c = Q_a

       m (T_{f}-T₀) = M (T_{i} - T_{f})

Therefore, we see that the smaller container has less thermal energy and when placed in contact with the larger one, it absorbs part of the heat from it until the thermal energy of the two containers is the same.

Of the final statements, the one that best describes the process is C

since it talks about the thermal energy and the heat that is transferred in the process

A swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.00 m/s, and
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s

Explanation: let the following

From the first equation of linear motion

V = u+at..........1

parameters be represented as :

t = Time taken

v = Final velocity

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

u = Initial velocity = 4 m/s

s = Displacement

V = 0

Substitute the values into equation 1

0 = 4-9.8(t)

-4 = -9.8t

t = 4/9.8

t = 0.408s

From : s = ut+1/2at^2.........2

S = 4×0.408+0.5(-9.8)×0.408^2

S= 1.632-4.9(0.166)

S = 1.632-0.815

S = 0.817m

Her highest height above the board is 0.817 m

Total height she would fall is 0.817+1.90 = 2.717 m

From equation 2

s = ut+1/2at^2

2.717 m = 0t+0.5(9.8)t^2

2.717 m = 0+4.9t^2

2.717 m = 4.9t^2

2.717/4.9 = t^2

0.554 =t^2

t =√0.554

t = 0.744s

Hence, her feet were in the air for 0.744+0.408seconds

= 1.152s

Also recall from equation 1

V= u+at

V = 0+9.8(0.744)

V = 7.29m/s

Hence, the velocity when she hits the water is 7.29m/s

Finally,

a = 1.152s

b = 0.817 m

c = 7.29m/s
