Why does electricity cause climate change?

Physics
1 answer:
user100 [1]3 years ago
5 0

It's not the electricity. It's how we produce it.

Solar panels, wind turbines, nuclear reactors, and water wheels can be used to produce electricity with no effect on climate.

Coal, oil, wood, gasoline, natural gas, household trash, and tall dry grass can be burned to boil water to make steam to turn a generator and make electricity. When everybody does that, the burning releases enough Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere to futz up the Earth's climates. That's exactly what we have done for the past 200 years.

Consider the direction field of the differential equation dy/dx = x(y − 6)2 − 4, but do not use technology to obtain it. Describ
Alona [7]

Answer:

The slopes shows that the direction of the field is from -2 to +2, with three point charges, q₁, q₂ and q₃ at -2, 0 and +2 respectively.

Explanation:

Given;

The slope, dy/dx = 2x(y-6) - 4

2x(y-6) - 4 = 2xy - 12x - 4, divide through by 'x'

dy/dx = 2y -12 - 4/x

The slopes of the linear elements on the lines, x =0, y = 5, y = 6, y = 7.

At x = 0, and y = 5

dy/dx = 2y -12 - 4/x

dy/dx = 2(5) - 12 = -2

At x = 0, and y = 6

dy/dx = 2y -12 - 4/x

dy/dx = 2(6) - 12 = 0

At x = 0, and y = 7

= 2y -12 - 4/x

dy/dx = 2(7) - 12 = 2

Therefore, the slopes shows that the direction of the field is from -2 to +2, with three point charges, q₁, q₂ and q₃ at -2, 0 and +2 respectively.

Explain how electromagnetic waves are produced.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave can be created by accelerating charges; moving charges back and forth will produce oscillating electric and magnetic fields, and these travel at the speed of light.

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

capillaries are 5.09 × 10^{7}

Explanation:

Given data

area = 10.0 cm2

speed = 4.00

average diameter = 10.0 µm

to find out

total cross-sectional area and How many capillaries

solution

we apply here continuity equation

a1× v1  =a2 ×v2

we know v2 /v1 = a1/a2 that is equal 4

so here a1 will be

= 4 × 10

so a1 is 40 cm²

and capillaries are a1/ area

area = \pi /4 × 10 ² ×10^{-12}

capillaries are = 40 ×10^{-4} /  \pi /4 × 10 ² ×10^{-12}

capillaries are 5.09 × [tex]10^{7}
