Fossil fuels burn: cause
Glaciers melt: effect (mostly; the melting ice caps are a positive feedback loop of sorts)
Climates change: effect
Rain falls in unusual amounts: effect
Cities become more industrialized: cause
Human population grows worldwide: cause

Answer:

<u>Cause of climate change:</u>

Fossil fuels burn.

Cities become more industrialized.

Human population grows worldwide.

<u>Effect of climate change:</u>

Glaciers melt.

Climates change.

Rain falls in unusual amounts.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Climate change occurs when natural resources are over used by humans. The balance between demand and supply changes with supply not meeting the demand. Rapid industrialization, over population, burning of fossil fuels, deforestation are some of the reasons causing climate change.

The amount of pollutants and carbon-dioxide is increasing in the atmosphere leading to rise in global temperature. This leads to melting of glaciers and unusual amount of rain fall.

A particle moving along a straight line with constant acceleration has a velocity of 2.35 m/s at t=3.42 s, and a velocity of -8.
mrs_skeptik [129]

The particle's acceleration is 5.1 m/s²

<h3>What is Acceleration ?</h3>

Acceleration can be defined as the rate at which velocity is changing. It is a vector quantity and it is measured in m/s²

Given that a particle is moving along a straight line with constant acceleration has a velocity of 2.35 m/s at t=3.42 s, and a velocity of -8.72 m/s at t=5.59s

The given parameters are;

  • V1 = 2.35 m/s
  • V2 = - 8.72 m/s
  • T1 = 3.42s
  • T2 = 5.59s

Acceleration a = ΔV ÷ ΔT

a = (2.35 + 8.72) / (5.59 - 3.42)

a = 11.07 / 2.17

a = 5.1 m/s²

Therefore, the particle's acceleration is 5.1 m/s²

Calculate (a) the torque, (b) the energy, and (c) the average power required to accelerate Earth in 4.0 days from rest to its pr
natima [27]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Torque = <em>2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm</em>

Energy = <em>3.54 x 10³³ J</em>

Average power = <em>1.02 x 10²⁸ W</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) Torque (τ) is the rotational effect of a given force.  

It is given by

τ = I x α          -------------(i)

Where;

I = rotational inertia of the object

α = angular acceleration of the object.

In this case, the object is the Earth. Therefore,

I = 9.71 x 10³⁷ kg m²

α = ω / t

Where;

ω = angular velocity of earth = 2π rad / day

<em>Since </em>

<em>1 day = 24 hours and 1 hour = 3600seconds</em>

<em>1 day = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 2π rad / 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s</em>

<em />

t = 4 days = 4 x 24 x 3600 seconds = 345600 seconds

=> α = ω / t

=> α = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ / 345600

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵) / (3.456 x 10⁵)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵⁻⁵) / (3.456)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻¹⁰) / (3.456)

=> α = 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ rad/s²

Now substitute the values of I and α into equation (i)

τ = 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰

τ = 9.71 x 10²⁷ x 2.11

τ = 20.5 x 10²⁷ Nm

τ = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm

(ii) The energy (rotational energy) E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2} x I x ω

E = \frac{1}{2} x 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 7.29 × 10⁻⁵

E = 35.4 x 10³² J

E = 3.54 x 10³³ J

(iii) The average power P, is given by;

P = E / t

P = 3.54 x 10³³ / 345600

P = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W

A sinusoidal wave of angular frequency 1,203 rad/s and amplitude 3.1 mm is sent along a cord with linear density 3.9 g/m and ten
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

18.7842493212 W

Explanation:

T = Tension = 1871 N

\mu = Linear density = 3.9 g/m

y = Amplitude = 3.1 mm

\omega = Angular frequency = 1203 rad/s

Average rate of energy transfer is given by

P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{T\mu}\omega^2y^2\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{1871\times 3.9\times 10^{-3}}\times 1203^2\times (3.1\times 10^{-3})^2\\\Rightarrow P=18.7842493212\ W

The average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord is 18.7842493212 W
