A man drove his car through the Nevada desert one day when the temperature was over 100°F. When he started the trip, the gas sta

tion attendant found the tire to be 32 lb/in2. When he filled up with gas after crossing the desert, an attendant found the tire pressure to be 38 lb/in2. What is the best explanation for the increase in tire pressure?
The road wear on the tire caused a decrease in volume and, therefore, an increase in tire pressure.
The temperature in the tire increased, causing an increased tire pressure.
The hot temperature caused the springs to expand, which allowed more weight to ride on the tires, thus causing more pressure inside.
The measurements of the pressure were inaccurate. The added weight of the gas caused the extra pressure in the tires.

How have humans contributed to an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the past 100 years?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is an important green house gas. A small increase in the concentration of this gas can lead to the global rise in the surface temperature. Over the last 100 years, this gas has increased significantly. One of the main cause behind this the anthropogenic activities.

After the setup of the industrial revolution, there has been a large increase in this CO₂ concentration, as there are numerous large factories and indutries that releases this harmful gases. In addition to this, the burning up of fossil fuel also is responsible for the emission of large amount of carbon into the atmosphere.

Deforestation also is another cause, because trees are no longer there in vast quantities which takes up a large number of atmospheric carbon and in return liberates plenty of oxygen.

Thus, the activities done by man over the last century has led to the increase in the concentration of CO₂ into the atmosphere.

How does incoming solar radiation make life on earth possible?
MrMuchimi

<span>Light from the sun provides energy for life’s processes. It enables the primary producers (photosynthetic organisms) such as phytoplankton and plants to produce organic molecules from abiotic factors. This energy is passed up as primary and secondary consumers consume these producers and this cycle continues up the foods chain/web. </span>
