C. Greenhouse gases contribute to climate change

Explanation:

It is desirable to use an energy source that does not produce greenhouse gases because these gases contributes a whole lot to climate change.

Over the years, studies have shown that the primary use of fossil fuels have significant lead to changes in the climate.

Greenhouse gases are produced during the combustion of fossil fuels.
The most important gas produced in this process is the carbon dioxide.
The greenhouse gases prevents long range radiation from leaving the earth.
They waves interacts with the gases and warms the earth surface.
Anomalous concentration of the gases causes more warming of the earth surface.
This leads to a change in climate.

Estimate the average power of a water wave when it hits the chest of an adult standing in the water at the seashore. Assume that

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

$P=45.2W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Amplitude $A=0.56m$

Period $T=3.4s$

Wavelength $\lambda=2.0$

Area $a=0.14m^2$

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

$Power = 2 \pi ^2 \rho a(\frac{\lambda}{T})(\frac{1}{T})*A$

$P= 2 3.142^2 1025 0.14(\frac{2.0}{3.4})(\frac{1}{3.4})^2*0.56^2$

$P=45.2W$

Describe how sound waves are produced by the drum and then heard.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The material stretched across the drum vibrates to produce the sound waves.

Explanation:

A drum is one of the oldest musical instrument made by man. It is made of a hollow body over which a material such as skin is stretched. When a drum is struck with a stick, the material vibrates up and down. This makes the air above the drum to contract and relax rhythmically resulting in soundwaves. The soundwaves travel through air to reach our ears where they are heard.

The quality of sound produced by a drum is affected by its shape. A larger drum produces a lower pitched sound.
