Answer:    B. Carbon dioxide

Explanation:  Global warming arises due to the emission of gases which are accumulated in the atmosphere, that is, the layer of these gases increases in an atmosphere, and prevents the reflected sun rays from the ground to leave the atmosphere. Such a higher amount of sunshine-heat which is higher than necessary, remains in the atmosphere and heats the surface of the earth, which is the effect of the greenhouse. These are gases produced by combustion of fossil fuels, and during this combustion they are emitted into the atmosphere. Gases that cause the greenhouse effect are carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. The problem is that fossil fuels are used to produce electricity, in agriculture and transport. Global warming has drastically increased over the past decades, and if preventive measures which involving the use of alternative fuels are not undertaken, the catastrophic consequences, which are already visible, will be even greater.

If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy:________
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength.

As it is given that energy of a hydrogen atom and a helium atom is same.

Let us assume that E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'. Hence, relation between their wavelengths will be calculated as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}}    ... (1)

E_{helium} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}}         ... (2)

Equating the equations (1) and (2) as follows.

E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'\\\frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}} = E'\\\lambda_{helium} = \lambda_{hydrogen} = E'

Thus, we can conclude that if a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

A basketball player jumps straight up to dunk a basketball. The basketball player's speed increases as she returns to the
katen-ka-za [31]

Options :

The upward force is greater than the downward force.

The downward force is greater than the upward force.

The rightward force is greater than the leftward force.

The leftward force is greater than the rightward force.

Answer:

The downward force is greater than the upward force.

Explanation:

When the player jumps to dunk a basket ball, it requires an upward force exerted on the person due to the push by the person to jump, after dunking the basket ball, the player attains maximum height, where his final velocity becomes zero and his direction changes (from upward to downward), at this point his velocity increases due to the additional force exerted on the player due to the Earth's Gravitational pull - which is a downward force which acts on an object).

Hence, it could be concluded that the increase in speed of the basketball player as she returns to the ground means that the downward force is greater than the upward force acting on the player.
