Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
Solar radiation at frequencies of visible light passes through the atmosphere, heating the planet's surface, subsequently this energy is emitted in infrared thermal radiation. This radiation is absorbed by the gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the greater the amount of these gases in the atmosphere, the more heat will be trapped in the earth, raising its global temperature.
The heat energy transferred by the iron nail is 4680 J
Explanation:
The thermal energy transferred by a substance to another substance is given by the equation

where
m is the mass of the substance
C is its specific heat capacity
is its change in temperature
For the iron nail in this problem, we have:
m = 16 g


So, the amount of heat energy given off by the nail is

where the negative sign indicates that the heat is given off.

Assuming it is on a horizontal surface:
friction = μR
R = 20g (g is gravity 9.81)
so Friction = 0.085 x 20g
Work done is force x distance
so Work done = 0.085 x 20g x 28
= 466.956 J
Answer:
C. Add all the force vectors
Explanation:
The net force acting on an object is the vector sum of all the forces on the object.
Remember, Newton's first law tells us a body at rest will remain at rest or that in uniform motion will continue in motion unless acted by unbalanced forces.These unbalanced forces act in all direction towards the body thus to get the net force you require a summation of all these force with respect to their magnitudes and directions.
For example a force of 3N towards the East direction acting on a body and another force of 2N towards the West direction on the same body will generate a net force of 1N towards the East direction.
This process shows alpha decay so X represents an alpha particle. The characteristic of alpha decay is that the mass number stays constant while the proton number increases.
