How would improvement in use of renewable energy sources impact climate change sea-level rise?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Almost immeasurably small.

Explanation:

The STORY is that humans are BAD for the environment and have caused a HUGE change in the amount of CO₂ in the atmosphere.

Let's look at the reports and draw our own conclusions.

Current CO₂ levels are 409.8 parts per million (PPM)

at the beginning of the Industrial revolution in the 1700's, the presumed beginning of the huge increase in CO₂ the level was about 280 PPM

For perspective lets assume we capture the whole atmosphere and squish it down to 2400 one liter bottles of air

That's 100 cases of 24 bottles per case.

We now separate all the air components into their own bottles

Nitrogen is 78% of our air, so we subtract 78 cases from our 100 leaving 22

Subtracting Oxygen at 21% of air leaves 1 case of liter bottles left

Of those 24 bottles, Argon makes up 0.93% of air so we subtract 22 bottles

The remaining two bottles contain all of the other gasses in our air, One of those bottles contains CO₂.

If we take the CO₂ levels from the 1700's at about 280 PPM as a baseline and assume ALL of the increase is human caused, that is (410 -280) / 280 = 46 % of the total.

The human caused addition of CO₂ would be 460 mililiters out of 2400 liters over the course of 250 years 

The claim is, that less than half of a liter of CO₂ out of 2400 liters of air is responsible for heating not only the gas in all the other bottles but also the surface of the earth itself.

Personally, it boggles my mind.

And it says NOTHING of a far more powerful greenhouse gas that is far more prevalent in the atmosphere...water vapor.

Water vapor is about 1% of air at sea level and about 0.4% overall. It was not considered in the above analysis because water vapor can condense out and is not a constant in the air.

Notice that there is about 100 times the amount of water vapor in the air as compared to CO₂. Water vapor also has between 4 and 8 times the greenhouse effect that CO₂ does.

Makes one wonder why we choose to pick on CO₂.

How long does it take light to travel 850 km in a vacuum? Answer in ms.(Express your answer to two significant figures.)
poizon [28]

Answer:

0.002833 sec

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum is 3\times 10^{8}m/sec

Given distance = 850 km = 850×1000=850000 m

We have to calculate the time that light take to travel the distance 850 km

Time T=\frac{distance }{speed}=\frac{850000}{3\times 10^8}=2.833\times 10^{-3}sec

So the time taken by light to travel 850 km is 0.002833 sec

Two blocks of masses m and 3m are placed on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A light spring is attached to the more massive b
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Conservation of momentum is followed

m₁ v₁  = m₂ v₂

3m x 2 = m  v

v = 6 m/s

Total kinetic energy

= 1/2 x .35 x 6 ² + 1/2 x 1.05 x 2 ²

= 8.4 J

This energy must be stored as elastic energy in the spring which was released as kinetic energy on burning the cord.

Yes , the conservation of momentum will be followed  in the bursting apart process. Only internal forces have been involved in the process. Two equal and opposite internal forces are created by spring which creates motion and generates kinetic energy.

Peter does 3,000 joules (J) of work by moving an object 40 meters (m). What is the force that Peter applies to the object? A 75
Papessa [141]

The force that peter applies to the object of distance 40m is 75N.

<h3>HOW TO CALCULATE FORCE</h3>

The force applied to an object can be calculated by dividing the work done on the object by the distance moved. That is;

Force = Work done ÷ distance

According to this question, the work done is 3000 joules while the distance moved is 40m. The force is calculated as follows:

Force = 3000J ÷ 40m

Force = 75N

Therefore, the force that peter applies to the object of distance 40m is 75N.
