From the last problem, what is the ratio of the ppm change in CO2 to the ppm change in CH4? Assume that the concentrations of CO

2 and CH4 start at their present-day values of 400 ppm and 1.7 ppm, respectively.

An additional 10ppm of methane will change the upward IR heat flux (in tropical

atmosphere) from 289.29 W/m2

to 286.211 W/m2

, which is a reduction of 3.08

W/m2

.

An additional 10ppm of CO2 will change the upward IR heat flux from 289.29 W/m2

to 289.29 W/m2

, which is a change of 0.13 W/m2

.

Therefore, an additional 10 ppm of methane would have a much larger impact on

the outgoing infrared flux than an additional 10 ppm of CO2 at current

concentrations

The Eurasian plate is a tectonic plate that amasses the whole continent of what others call as “Eruasia”. It takes part of the oceanic crust that starts from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and extends itself to northward of the Gakkel Ridge. The size of this plate is for about 67,800,000 km according to statistics and geography.

- A fridge has a maximum static friction force
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

They will move the fridge if they all push in the same direction, but it will not move with constant velocity

Explanation:

The maximum static friction force is

F_f = -250 N (negative sign since its direction is opposite to the push applied by the people)

Sam can apply a force of 130 N, while Amir and Andre can apply a push of 65 N each, so the total force that they can apply, if they push in the same direction, will be:

F=130 + 65 +65=260 N

This force is larger than the frictional force, so the fridge will start moving.

However, the net force on the fridge will be:

\sum F = 260 N - 250 N = 10 N

And according to Newton's second law,

\sum F = ma

where m is the mass of the fridge and a its acceleration, since the net force is not zero, then the fridge will have a non-zero acceleration, so it will not move with constant  velocity.
