Answer:

an increase in gasses that absorb heat

Explanation:

Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.

Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.

You need to repair a gate on the farm. The gate weighs 100 kg and pivots as indicated. A small diagonal bar supports the gate an
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The force is  F = 3920 \ N

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

   From the question we are told that

          The weight of the gate is G  =  100\  kg

 

The vertical component of F is  F_y =  F\ sin  \theta

   From the diagram , taking moment about the pivot we have  

                W_g  * 2 - F_y  * 1 =  0

Where W_g  is the weight of the gate evaluated as

             W_g  =  m_g * g =  100 * 9.8 =  980 \ N

=>        980 * 2 - Fsin(30)  * 1 =  0

=>         F = \frac{1960}{sin(30)}

=>      F = 3920 \ N

vagabundo [1.1K]
The characteristic of epithelial cells that makes them ideal for providing this type of protection is that the cells are packed tightly together. 
Skin, the body's largest organ,is our first and best defense against external aggressors. The many layers work hard to protect us, however when its condition is compromised, its ability to work as an effective barrier is impaired.

In places of hot climate it is advised that the outer walls of houses be painted white. Explain.
goblinko [34]

Darker colors absorb heat, While lighter colors don't. If a house is painted black in Arizona, The black color will absorb the heat making the temperature inside the house very hot even with the AC on. If a house in Arizona is painted White, The heat will bounce off the White color, making the temperature inside the house cooler.

Hope this helps!
