How do hydroelectric dams emit greenhouse gases like methane without burning any fossil fuels?
Helen [10]

Answer: The concept behind hydroelectric power is simple: Rather than combusting fossil fuels, like coal, oil, or natural gas, which put over 52 million kilotons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere each year, dams block the water flowing in rivers or lakes and use the force of the would-be flow to turn turbines,

2. A photon of wavelength for 4 x10 -7 m strikes on the metal surface the work
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Energy of the photon;

E = hc/λ

h= Planks constant

c= speed of light

λ = wavelength

E= 6.6 × 10^-34 × 3 × 10^8/4 x10 -7

E = 4.95 × 10^-19 J

If 1ev=1.602x10-19 J

x = 4.95 × 10^-19 J

x= 3.1 ev

From Einstein's photoelectric equation;

KE = E - Wo

Where;

KE = kinetic energy of ejected photoelectron

E= energy of the photon

Wo= work function of the metal

KE = 3.1 eV - 2.13 eV

KE= 0.97 eV

KE = 0.97 eV × 1.602x10-19 J

KE = 1.55 × 10^-19 J

KE = 1/2 mv^2

1.55 × 10^-19= 1/2 × 9.1 × 10^-31 × v^2

v= √2 × 1.55 × 10^-19/9.1 × 10^-31

v= 5.8 × 10^5 m/s

Write a balanced equation of decomposition reaction which is carried out by the catalyst
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which the compound is broken up into its constituents.

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which the compound is broken up into its constituents. When the decomposition is brought about by a catalyst, it is called catalytic decomposition.

Let us look at the catalytic decomposition of the compound potassium trioxochlorate V. in the presence of the catalysts manganese dioxide. The reaction occurs as follows;

2KClO3 -----> 2KCl + 3O2

How does sediment form?
Andrews [41]
Sediment is solid material that is moved and deposited in a new location. Sediment can consist of rocks and minerals, as well as the remains of plants and animals. It can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a boulder. Sediment moves from one place to another through the process of erosion.
