Hey how are you can you help me with my quiz?
Angle of Solar Radiation and Temperature
Answer:
1. 2.04 W/m²
2. 1.63°C
Explanation:
The radiative force that the Earth receives comes from the Sun. When the Sun rays come to the surface, some of them are absorbed and then it is reflected in the space. The greenhouse gases (like CO2) blocks some of these rays, and then the surface stays warm. The excessive amount of these gases makes the surface warmer, which unbalance the climate on Earth.
1. The variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated based on the concentration of the CO2 by the equation:
ΔF = 5.35*ln(C/C0)
Where C is the final concentration, and C0 is the initial concentration.
ΔF = 5.35*ln(410/280)
ΔF = 2.04 W/m²
2. The temperature change in the Earth's surface caused by the variation of the radiative forcing can be calculated by:
ΔT = 0.8*ΔF
ΔT = 0.8*2.04
ΔT = 1.63 K = 1.63°C
Answer:
Explanation:
Boyle's law for gases states that, at constant temperature, the volume and pressure of a fixed amount of gas are inversely related.
Mathematically, that is:
Here, you have:
Then, you can solve for V₂:
Substitute and compute:
- V₂ = 14.1 KPa × 2.4L / 84.6 KPa = 0.40 L ← answer
Answer:
Thomson placed two magnets on either side of the tube, and observed that this magnetic field also deflected the cathode ray. The results of these experiments helped Thomson determine the mass-to-charge ratio of the cathode ray particles, which led to a fascinating discovery, minus the mass of each particle was much, much smaller than that of any known atom. Thomson repeated his experiments using different metals as electrode materials, and found that the properties of the cathode ray remained constant no matter what cathode material they originated from. From this evidence, Thomson made the following conclusions:
The cathode ray is composed of negatively-charged particles.
The particles must exist as part of the atom, since the mass of each particle is only ~1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen atom.
These subatomic particles can be found within atoms of all elements.
While controversial at first, Thomson's discoveries were gradually accepted by scientists. Eventually, his cathode ray particles were given a more familiar name: electrons. The discovery of the electron disproved the part of Dalton's atomic theory that assumed atoms were indivisible. In order to account for the existence of the electrons, an entirely new atomic model was needed.
