Answer: A. They absorb radiation given off by the earth.

Explanation: Green house gases are gases that have the capability of trapping the heat energy from the sun in our environment. These special attribute of these gases is what keeps our environment warm and sustain life as we know it. Example of Green House Gases include: carbon dioxide, water vapour and methane.

Answer:

A. THEY ABSORBS RADIATION GIVEN OFF BY THE EARTH.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are gases capable of absorbing and emitting infrared  radiations in different wavelength range emitted by the earth. These gases include water vapor, carbon iv oxide, methane, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons, nitric oxide, hydrofluorocarbons. These gases contribute to the greenhouse effects and there actions are dependence on their respective characteristics, abundance in the atmosphere and the indirect effects it causes. Earth surfaces absorbs radiant energy from the sun and these radiations are reflected as light or reflected back to space as hear. Greenhouse gases are involved in absorbing and emitting these incoming energies in order to create a balance between the incoming and outgoing energies. This determines the temperature on the earth surface. The earth can be warm or cold depending on the direction the difference in this balance shifts. Without the greenhouse gases the average temperature of the earth will be lower than the expected temperature.

kap26 [50]

Answer: A barrier should be created to overcome the atmosphere of the Venus, while launching spacecraft to Venus.

Explanation:

The atmosphere of Venus consists of 96.5% carbon dioxide, other composition includes nitrogen and other gases in trace amounts. The large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can extinguish the missile of the launcher of spacecraft thus it will become difficult in launch of spacecraft to the Venus.

Describe how you would use a calorimeter to determine the specific heat capacity of a metal
vovikov84 [41]
<span>My only guess is obtain a metal and heat it in a boiling water bath (of known temperature) this will be your initial temperature. Now obtain a calorimeter cup with water of known temperature as well. Place the metal into the calorimeter cup and record the temperature after 5 minutes. You now have delta T, mass of the metal, and Q. Solve for C.

Hope this helps xox :)</span>
