Part of the Sun's energy that reaches the Earth's surface is absorbed by land and water as heat. The Earth's surface then releas

es heat back to the atmosphere.
Which of the following is true about this solar energy that is absorbed and released by Earth's surface as heat?

Question 9 options:

Much of the heat is trapped at the top of Earth's atmosphere to protect Earth from ultraviolet radiation.


All of this heat escapes the Earth's atmosphere, which keeps the planet cool.


Much of the heat is trapped low in the atmosphere and is a major factor in determining Earth's climate.


All of this heat escapes the Earth's atmosphere, which keeps the planet hot.

Please help, im stuck on this question
saw5 [17]

Answer:

A) .27 A

Explanation:

v = ir

i = v/r

equivalent r  =   45 * 90 / (45+90) = 30 ohms    ( for the two r in parallel)

i = 8v / 30 ohm = 267 mAmps

1. How is electric potential energy similar to gravitational potential energy? How is it different? Where will an electron bound
Korolek [52]
Both ve similar equations 
<span>both are energies of one object w.r.t another </span>
<span>differences- electric pe is due to electrostatic force and gravitational pe is due to gravitational force </span>
<span>electric pe is > than gravitational pe since electrostatic force> gravitational force </span>
<span>electron bound in an atom ll ve largest potential enegy in its ground state. i think hope it helps</span>

How can you remember meiosis 1 and meiosis 2
Marianna [84]

Answer:

Once you know the differences between meiosis 1 and 2, you will remember it easier.

Explanation:

Meiosis 1 starts with 1 diploid cell Meiosis 2 starts with 2 haploid cells,

each with a homologous pair

Meiosis 1 results in 2 daughter cells Meiosis 2 results in 4

Compare and contrast four types <br> of friction
malfutka [58]
Some of these frictions depend on the Pressure, temperature of atmosphere.

Static Friction: This is the  friction force when two objects in contact  are not moving relative to each other. This friction is higher than kinetic friction.

Kinetic or Dynamic friction: this the friction force opposing the motion of objects, when two objects in contact are in motion relative to each other.  It is less than the static friction. The two surfaces are rubbing against each other as they move.

Rolling friction:  This is the friction when two objects are in contact and one object is rolling over the other - like a wheel on a road. The point of contact appears as stationary. The rolling friction is very less compared to static friction & dynamic friction.

Lubricated friction: this is the friction between two solid surfaces in contact with a layer of lubricant fluid flowing in between them. This friction is the least.

Fluid friction - viscosity :  this is friction between two adjacent layers that are moving relative to each other at different speeds in a fluid.  This is not high.

Internal friction: when an object is compressed and forced to deform, like in a piece of rubber, there is friction between the layers, that opposes this deformation.

Skin friction is the friction that opposes movement of a fluid across a solid surface.  This is also called drag.  When a coin is dropped in water, there is a friction called drag on the coin. Same is the case when a ball is thrown, a drag is experienced by the ball due to the drag of air.
