Answer:

Due to the generation of carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Climate change occurs due to global warming generated by greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide is the gas that does not leave or allow solar radiation from the sun to rise from the Earth's surface, increasing the average temperature of the planet.

Burning fossil fuels for energy generation such as coal is another source of carbon dioxide generation. The generation of energy should be directed towards the production of renewable energies, using sources such as solar and wind energy.

A vw bug is driving north on a straight two lane road at a constant 54 mph and chevy impala south at 47 on the same road (but di

mario62 [17]

Velocity of vw bug is given as

$v_1 = 54 mpH$ towards north

velocity of imphala is given as

$v_2 = 47 mph$ towards south

now we need to find velocity of imphala relative to bug

$v_{21} = v_2 - v_1$

$v_{21} = 47 - (-54) = 101 mpH$

so the speed is 101 mpH towards south so correct option is C

A particle of mass 10 g and charge 72 μC moves through a uniform magnetic field, in a region where the free-fall acceleration is

sineoko [7]

Answer:

$-0.07163\hat k\ T$ or 0.07163 T into the page

Explanation:

m = Mass of particle = 10 g

a = Acceleration due to gravity = -9.8j m/s²

v = Velocity of particle = 19i km/s

q = Charge of particle = 72 μC

B = Magnetic field

Here the magnetic and gravitational forces on the particle are applied in the opposite direction so,

$F_b=F_g$

$F_b=qvBsin\theta\\\Rightarrow F_b=qvBsin90\\\Rightarrow F_b=72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000B$

$F_g=ma\\\Rightarrow F_g=0.01\times -9.8$

$72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000B=0.01\times -9.8\\\Rightarrow B=\frac{0.01\times -9.8}{72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000}\\\Rightarrow B=-0.07163\hat k\ T$

The magnetic field is 0.07163 T into the page

The energy of the electron in Hydrogen atom can be shown to be given by En = -13.6/n^2 eV, where n represents the principal quan

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

Explanation:

Energy of the orbit where n = 3 is given as follows

$E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{3^2}$

$E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{9}$ = -1.511 eV

Energy of the orbit where n = 1 is given as follows

$E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1^2}$

$E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1}$ = 13.6 eV

Difference of [tex]E_3 and [tex]E_1 = - 1.511+ 13.6

= 12.089 eV.

The wavelength of light having this energy in nm is given by the expression as follows

Wavelength in nm = 1244 / energy in eV

= 1244 / 12.089

= 102.90 nm

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

The weight of the mass added to the hanger is equal to the extra force on the gas, but what area should we use to calculate the

kari74 [83]

Answer: according to the Avagadro's law, volume is directly propotional to no of moles: VXn

according to the Charles law, volume is directly propotional to temperatue: VXT

according to the Boyle's law, volume is inversely propotional to P: VX1/P

when we combine them we get:

VXnT1/P

V=knT/P

k= R(universal gas constant)

V=RnT/P

PV=nRT
