Explanation :

Chlorofluorocarbons are abbreviated as CFC. It contains only carbon, fluorine, and chlorine. Initially, CFC is used as refrigerants.

Impact of chlorofluorocarbons on the atmosphere are :

(1) It damages the earth's ozone layer. So, it was banned in 1996.

(2) It also contributes to global warming.  

(3) They have lived in atmosphere of about 20 to 100 years.

Which wave, A or B, has higher energy?
eduard

Answer:

Wave A.

Explanation:

The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude.

If a wave has higher amplitude, it will have more energy. On the other hand, a wave having lower amplitude, it will have less eenergy.

In this case, we need to tell which wave has higher energy. Hence, the correct option is A because it has a higher amplitude.

Check the dimensional consistencies of s =vot+1/2at2​
Leni [432]

Answer:

s is distance so it's dimensions become L.

Nd other side we have ut+1\2at^2.

as 1\2 is a constant it will have dimensions and apply the dimensions to other quantities.

on solving u will get L there also i,e ur LHS = RHS.

thus the equation is dimensionally consistent.

Is it possible to have negative velocity but positive acceleration? If so, what would this mean?
dusya [7]

Observe that the object below moves in the negative direction with a changing velocity. An object which moves in the negative direction has a negative velocity. If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion (in this case, a positive acceleration). The dot diagram shows that each consecutive dot is not the same distance apart (i.e., a changing velocity). The position-time graph shows that the slope is changing (meaning a changing velocity) and negative (meaning a negative velocity). The velocity-time graph shows a line with a positive (upward) slope (meaning that there is a positive acceleration); the line is located in the negative region of the graph (corresponding to a negative velocity). The acceleration-time graph shows a horizontal line in the positive region of the graph (meaning a positive acceleration).

I don't know how I can show you the figure
