Explanation:

One of the takeaways of the General Theory of Relativity (GTR) was that the light can be curved because of the gravity of a massive object. Einstein had proposed the idea of <em>space-time</em> fabric. Every object having mass will create depression in this fabric. Heavier the object, bigger the depression. Thus when light will pass near a heavy object lets say our Sun, it will deflect. He also gave mathematical formula to calculate the deflection.

The same was proved during the Total Solar Eclipse of 29 May 1919. Two scientists named Arthur Eddington and Frank Dyson conducted an experiment. In this eclipse the Sun was to be in front of Hyades in Taurus constellation. They took the measurement of stars of Hyades visible during the eclipse and then compared them with the actual readings. The deflection was clearly visible and the amount of deflection was very close to the values predicted by General Theory of Relativity. Thus they proved the theory right.

kirza4 [7]

I think with the increasing of temperatures of earths oceans and atmosphere is causing climate change and global warming. When the ocean heats up a lot of sea animals die and with the hot temps in the atmosphere is causing rare hot tempatures in some places in the world.
It can cause some intense storms but it mostly heats up the world and cause a lot of problems.

I hope i answered your question right.

How does an inclined plane affect the effort needed to move a load vertically?

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

"Effort" usually refers to the applied force. An inclined plane decreases the force required while increasing the distance that the force is exerted over. So even though there's less force needed, the amount of work stays the same.
