A major part of the greenhouse effect is that it involves the absorption of the earth's outgoing radiation by atmospheric gases. Along with carbon dioxide, the atmospheric component that is largely responsible for this process is the water vapor.

<span>Water vapor is already the gaseous phase of water.  It evaporates all the way through the atmosphere. Since water vapor is produced from the boiling liquid of water, or from the ice sublimation, all the radiation and other chemicals that produces greenhouse gases which are present in the water will also be carried towards the Earth’s atmosphere during the process of evaporation. This, along with carbon dioxide totally damages the Earth’s ozone layer.</span>

DedPeter [7]

Complete Question

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. Having recently studied optics in your physics class, you're not too surprised to see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. It appears that the central maximum is about 2 cm across, and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 5 m.

Required:

Estimate the diameter of the pinhole.  

Answer:

The diameter is  d =0.000336 m

Explanation:

     From the question we are told that

            The central maxima is D= 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m

            The distance from the window shade is L = 5m

     The  average wavelength of the  sun is mathematically evaluated as

                         \lambda_{ave } = \frac{\lambda_i  + \lambda_f}{2}

 Generally the visible light spectrum  has a wavelength  range  between  400 nm  to 700 nm  

        So  the initial wavelength of the sun is \lambda _i = 400nm

           and the final wavelength is  \lambda_f = 700nm

  Substituting this into the above equation

                 \lambda_{sun} = \frac{400nm  +700nm}{2}

                        = 550nm

The diameter is evaluated as

              d = \frac{2.44 \lambda_{sun} L}{D}

substituting values

              d = \frac{2.44 * 550*10^{-9} * 5 }{0.02}

                d =0.000336 m

iragen [17]

Answer:

Impulse = 1000 Ns

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force of collision = 1000 kg•m/s.

Time = 1 seconds

To find the impulse;

Mathematically, the impulse experienced by an object or body is given by the formula;

Impulse = force * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Impulse = 1000 * 1

Impulse = 1000 Ns
