Answer: The option 4 is correct answer.

Explanation:

Terrestrial radiation is a long wave electromagnetic radiation. It originates from the earth and its atmosphere.

The sun emits a huge amount of energy. It travels across the space. The atmosphere is not directly heated by the solar radiation. It is heated by the terrestrial radiation that the planet itself emits.

When the land is heated then it emits radiation which heats up the atmosphere.

The earth is cooled and its atmosphere is heated by terrestrial radiation.

Therefore, the relationship between the earth, its atmosphere and radiation is correctly compared by statement 4.

PLEASE HELPP MEEE!!!!!!!!!The goal is to increase the power; therefore, it is necessary to
Brrunno [24]

As we know that power is defined as rate of work done

so we will have

P = \frac{Work}{time}

so in order to increase the power as per above formula we know that either we need to increase the work or we need to decrease the time to complete that work

So here the correct answer will be

increase the work being done or decrease the time in which the work is completed.

How much heat is absorbed by a 28g iron skillet when its temperature rises from 7oC to 29oC?
prohojiy [21]
From the information given above, 
Mass [M] = 28 g
Change in temperature = 29 - 7 = 22 
Specific heat of iron = 0.449 [This value is constant]
The formula for calculating heat absorbed, Q is
Q = Mass * Specific heat of Iron * change in temperature
Q = 28 * 0.449 * 22 = 276.58 J<span />

Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. suppose one such plate has an average speed of 4.8 cm
user100 [1]
<span>one year is 365, 1 day is 24 hours, 1 hour is 60 minutes, 60 minutes is 60 seconds, thus (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) = 31,536,000 one year is equal to 31,536,000 seconds. the plate has a speed of 4.8 cm every 31,536,000 seconds. lets find out how far it goes in 40 seconds. (4.8/31,536,000)*40 = 0.00000608828 The plate moves 0.00000608828 cm every 40 seconds</span>
