The global warming is the uniform heating of the globe due to the effect of greenhouse gases.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Global warming is thus the theory that says that earth is warming up with an increase in temperature over time due to increment in the greenhouse gases.

These are greenhouse gases that are getting increased due to the human activity or say over exploitation of the natural resources. The heating of the globe has caused ozone layer depletion which is also causing warming.

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force

salantis [7]

Answer:

Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg

Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm

So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m

Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m

Frictional force f = 0.031 N

Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m

Energy gained by spring

$KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J$

Energy lost due to friction

$W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J$

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J

This energy will be kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052$

v = 1.40 m/sec

What are the parts of a wedge and their function?

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

A wedge is a machine that consists of two inclined planes, giving it a thin end and thick end. A wedge is used to cut or split apart objects. Force is applied to the thick end of the wedge, and the wedge applies force to the object along both of its sloping sides. This force causes the object to split apart
