What is a major contributor of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?

Physics
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a. burning of fossil fuel

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect is the trapping of the sun infrared rays in the outermost layer of the earths atmosphere due to the accumulation of some harmful gasses. This gases depletes the ozone layer

The major contributor of greenhouse gases is the burning of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxides are released into the atmosphere and leads to global warming and climatic changes per time

What is the mechanical advantage of a pencil sharpener made from a wheel and axle with a mechanical advantage of 3 and a wedge w
kow [346]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

axle with a mechanical advantage of 3 and

a wedge with a mechanical advantage of 4?

Mechanical Advantage( M.A.) in a simple machine is defined as the ratio of the force that performs the useful work of a machine to the force that is applied to the machine.

Mechanical Advantage of Compound Machine = Product of mechanical advantages of the simple machines that it consists of, that is the mechanical advantage of wheel and axle multiplied by the mechanical advantage of wedge.

Therefore,

M.A. wheel and axle = 3

M.A. wedge= 4

M.A. pencil sharpener= 12

The objection that Copernicus had to the Ptolemaic system was its
kykrilka [37]
The answer was that Copernicus objected to Ptolemaic system where the theory states that the universe is geocentric, where celestial bodies moves around the earth instead of the solar system model where it was patterned to Copernicus' model where science have accepted that the sun is indeed the center of our solar system and not true with Ptolemy's argument.

The lowest frequency in the FM radio band is 87.7 MHz. (a) What inductance is needed to produce this resonant frequency if it is
denpristay [2]

Answer:

inductance  is 1.31 µH

capacitance is 1.658 pF

Explanation:

Given data

frequency = 87.7 MHz  = 87.7 ×10^{6} Hz

capacitor =  2.50 pF  = 2.50 ×10^{-12} F

to find out

inductance  and capacitance at 108 MHz

solution

we apply here resonant frequency that is

frequency = 1 / 2π√(LC)    ..............1

here L is inductance and C is capacitor

put all the value and find L

√(L2.50 ×10^{-12}) = 1 / 2π (  87.7 ×10^{6} )

√(L2.50 ×10^{-12}) = 1.81 × 10^{-9}

(L2.50 ×10^{-12}) = 3.296 × 10^{-18}

L = 3.296 × 10^{-18}   /  2.50 ×10^{-12}

L = 1.31 × 10^{-6} H

so inductance  is 1.31 µH

and

for 108 MHz = 108 ×10^{6} Hz

we find here capacitance c from equation 1

frequency = 1 / 2π√(LC)

√(LC) =1 / 2π frequency

√(1.31 × 10^{-6}  C) =1 / 2π ( 108 ×10^{6} )

√(1.31 × 10^{-6}  C) = 1.47 ×10^{-9}

(1.31 × 10^{-6}  C) =   2.178 ×10^{-18}

c = 2.178 × 10^{-18}   /  (1.31 × 10^{-6} )

c = 1.658 × 10^{-12} F

so capacitance is 1.658 pF
