Differentiate greenhouse effect,global warming and climate change

A small meteorite with mass of 1 g strikes the outer wall of a communication satellite with a speed of 2Okm/s (relative to the s

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Explanation:

GIven the absence of external forces exerted both on the small meteorite and on the communication satellite, the Principle of Linear Momentum is considered and let suppose that collision is completely inelastic and that satellite is initially at rest. Hence, the expression for the satellite-meteorite system:

$m_{M}\cdot v_{M} + m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v$

Where:

$m_{M}$ , $m_{S}$ - Masses of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in kilograms.

$v_{M}$ , $v_{S}$ - Speeds of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in meters per second.

The final speed of the satellite-meteorite system is cleared:

$v = \frac{m_{M}\cdot v_{M}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}}{m_{M}+m_{S}}$

If $m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg$ , $m_{S} = 200\,kg$ , $v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the final speed is now calculated:

$v = \frac{(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{1\times 10^{-3}\,kg+200\,kg}$

$v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}$

Which means that the new system remains stationary and all mechanical energy from meteorite is dissipated in the form of heat. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the change in the kinetic energy is equal to the dissipated energy in the form of heat:

$K_{S} + K_{M} - K - Q_{disp} = 0$

$Q_{disp} = K_{S}+K_{M}-K$

Where:

$K_{S}$ , $K_{M}$ - Initial translational kinetic energies of the communication satellite and small meteorite, measured in joules.

$K$ - Kinetic energy of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in joules.

$Q_{disp}$ - Dissipated heat, measured in joules.

The previous expression is expanded by using the definition for the translational kinetic energy:

$Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [m_{M}\cdot v_{M}^{2}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}^{2}-(m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v^{2}]$

Given that $m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg$ , $m_{S} = 200\,kg$ , $v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the dissipated heat is:

$Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-(200.001\,kg)\cdot \left(0.001\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]$ $Q_{disp} = 200000\,J$

$Q_{disp} = 200\,kJ$

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

What is a concentration?

Tresset [83]

Answer/Explanation:

In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Several types of mathematical description can be distinguished: mass concentration, molar concentration, number concentration, and volume concentration.

A concentration refers to a subject or study within a specific major. As part of the degree coursework, concentration classes count toward your major requirements as well.

car is moving at 40 m/s. At 10 meters the driver spots a deer on the road and instantly steps on the brakes. If the car is 400 k

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

32000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance (s) = 10 m

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)

0 = 1600 + 20a

Collect like terms

0 – 1600 = 20a

–1600 = 20a

Divide both side by –1600

a = –1600 / 20

a = –80 m/s²

The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.

Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg

Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 400 × –80

F = – 32000 N

NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.

A stone is dropped into water from a bridge 52 m above the water's

dusya [7]

Answer:

Its final velocity and how much time it takes to reach the water

Explanation:

The motion of the stone is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation to determine its final velocity:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

v is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

s = 52 m is the distance covered during the fall

Solving for v,

$v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0^2+2(9.8)(52)}=31.9 m/s$

We can also find how much time it takes to reach the water, using the equation

$v=u+at$

where

v = 31.9 m/s is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$

t is the time

And solving for t,

$t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{31.9-0}{9.8}=3.26 s$

100 POINTS! PLEASE HELP!

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

By the information given, I am not sure how the event has played out. However, using common knowledge, I can give a scenario of how it may play out.

When removing the first block (the foundation), gravity will pull the other blocks down, as the strength of gravity exceeds that of the strength of air holding it up. This means that all the blocks on top would fall.

By definition of Newton's 1st - 3rd laws, the blocks would not move unless a force is given to it (i.e., removing the bottom block, which causes gravity). Gravity would pull the other blocks downwards. This would lead to the falling of the stack of blocks.
