The greenhouse effect is a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing, and as explained by the Encyclopedia of Environmental Science, “life, as we know it, would not exist.” 
<span>
 The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects.</span><span>

‏Explain how an electron emitted by the photoelectric effect can have kinetic energy less than threshold energy ?
xenn [34]

Answer:

the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

          K = E - Ф

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from the surface of a metal.

This was correctly explained by Einstein, in his explanation the energy of the photons (quanta of light) collide with the electrons, these electrons have to overcome the threshold energy that is the energy of union with the metal, and the energy that remains is converted to kinetic energy.

          E = hf

          E = K + Ф

          K = E - Ф

The energy of the photons is given by the Planck relation E = hf and according to Einstein the number of joints must be added

            E = n hf

Therefore, depending on the value of this energy, the emitted electrons can have energy from zero onwards.

NASA developed a reflective foil barrier to help shield spacecraft from heat transfer in space. These reflective barriers are no
morpeh [17]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.

a microwave uses a 14 a of electricity if 120 v is run through it what is the resistance of the microwave
Airida [17]
Resistance = voltage / current.

That's. 120v / 14A = 8.57 ohms.

By the way, voltage doesn't "run through" anything. Current does. That would be the 14 Amps.
