Answer:
the layers of atmosphere are heated through radiation and convection.
Explanation:
- heat is transferred from sun through radiation
- and current through convection
The movement of the object is considered to be kinetic energy while the object getting warmer indicates that there is thermal (heat) energy formed.
Based on this, as the object slides across the floor, friction slows down this motion and the object becomes warmer as kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy.
Answer:
The temperature of the Earth depends on many factors, including the concentration of greenhouse gases such as water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide. The Earth's temperature also depends on the rates at which light radiation and infrared radiation are: absorbed by the Earth's surface and atmosphere.
Answer:
Inside the film the wavelength will be λ/n
For constructive interference to occur the film must be λf/4 thick where λf is the wavelength of the light in the film - there will be a 180 degree phase shift at the water/film interface since the index of refraction of the film is greater than that of water - and the light has to travel λ/2 inside the film for constructive interference to occur
280 nm / 1.6 * 4 = 700 nm is the greatest wavelength allowed
Note that 700 nm is also the upper wavelength of the visible spectrum
