How does carbon dioxide affect the atmosphere

Physics
1 answer:
stira [4]4 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas... An increase in the amount of carbon dioxide creates an overabundance of greenhouse gases that trap additional heat. This trapped heat leads to melting ice caps and rising ocean levels, which cause flooding.

The half-wave rectifier circuit of vs(t) = 170 sin(377t) V and a load resistance R = 15Ω. Determine: a. The average load current
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

a  average load current = 11.33 A

b rms load current = 8.02A

c true power =962.64 W

d apparent power =962.64 W

e. power factor cosθ =1

Explanation:

Vs (t) = 170 sin(377t) v

Vm =170v

Vrms = 170/√2 =120.23 v

Im = Vm/R = 170/15 = 11.33 A

Irms = Im/ √2 = 11.33/√2 =8.02A

Resistors are electronic components that consume energy

the power in a resistor is given by  P =IVcosθ ; in a resistor cosθ =1

P =IV

The electrical power consumed by a resistance, (R) is called the true or real power

and is obtained by multiplying the rms voltage with the rms current.

P= Vrms × Irms

120.03×8.02

P= 962.64 W ; true power

apparent power = Vrms × Irms

=120.03×8.02

= 962.64W ; apparent power

power factor cosθ = true power/ apparent power

cosθ = 962.64/962.64

cosθ = 1

For the purely resistive circuit, the power factor is 1 , because the reactive power is equal to zero (0).

What is the passenger's apparent weight at t=1.0s?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

For the complete question provided in explanation, if the elevator moves upward, then the apparent weight will be 1035 N. While for downward motion the apparent weight will be 435 N.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question contains a velocity graph provided in the attachment. This is the velocity graph for an elevator having a passenger of 75 kg.

From the slope of graph it is clear that acceleration at t = 1 sec is given as:

Acceleration = a = (4-0)m/s / (1-0)s = 4 m/s^2

Now, there are two cases:

1- Elevator moving up

2- Elevator moving down

For upward motion:

Apparent Weight =  m(g + a)

Apparent Weight = (75 kg)(9.8 + 4)m/s^2

<u>Apparent Weight = 1035 N</u>

For downward motion:

Apparent Weight =  m(g - a)

Apparent Weight = (75 kg)(9.8 - 4)m/s^2

<u>Apparent Weight = 435 N</u>

Each level in a food chain contains less energy than the one below it because some energy is
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Because some of the energy is dissipated in the metabolic activities such as digestion and maintaining the warmth of the body of the organism at each level.

Explanation:

Food chain is the sequential chain of energy transfer from one onrgaanism at a trophic level to another organism at the other trophic level. Autotrophs receive the energy from the sun and prepare their own food. Autotrophs then get consumed by the primary heterotrophs and further primary heterotrophs by the secondary heterotrophs. When the secondary heterotrophs die they are then consumed by the scavangers and decayed by the micro-organisms in to the soil which finally help the autotrophs (plants) in their growth.

At each trophic level of the food chain the energy does not gets completely transferred because the organisms also spend some energy in search of the food and the processing of food is also an energy consuming process.

The energy is also used in combating the climatic conditions and predators for the survival.

il63 [147K]
A lot of it is all experimental as long as you are taking caution of safety while doing it. I personally would use copper wiring mainly for the fact that it is a nice conductor. For the wrap around the wiring i usually would use black or red electrical tape just because it has very nice insulator properties and is safe to use.
