Answer:
an increase in gasses that absorb heat
Explanation:
Greenhouse effect refers to the gradual increase in the earth's temperature due to an increase in the concentration of certain gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases and they include; water vapour, nitrogen 1 oxide, carbon IV oxide etc. Green house effect is said to occur when heat radiating outwards from the earth surface towards space is trapped close to the earth's surface due to the presence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse effect leads to increase in the temperature of the earth, melting of polar ice caps and possibly flooding due to a rise in sea levels.
Greenhouse gases act as glass in a greenhouse. They allow heat to pass through onto the earth surface but trap the heat and prevent it from being radiated outwards back to space. Thereby increasing the surface temperature of the earth.

The needle of a compass will always lies along the magnetic
field lines of the earth.
A magnetic declination at a point on the earth’s surface
equal to zero implies that
the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field line
at that specific point lies along
the line of the north-south magnetic poles. </span>
The presence of a
current-carrying wire creates an additional <span>
magnetic field that combines with the earth’s magnetic field.
Since magnetic
<span>fields are vector quantities, therefore the magnetic field of
the earth and the magnetic field of the vertical wire must be
combined vectorially. </span></span>

Where:</span>
B1 = magnetic field of
the earth along the x-axis = 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T
B2 = magnetic field due to
the straight vertical wire along the y-axis
We can calculate for B2
using Amperes Law:
B2 = μ₀ i / [ 2 π R ]
B2 = [ 4π × 10 ⁻ ⁷ T • m / A ] ( 36 A ) / [ 2 π (0.21 m ) ] <span>
B2 = 5.97 × 10 ⁻ ⁵ T = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T </span>
The angle can be
calculated using tan function:<span>
tan θ = y / x = B₂ / B₁ = 0.60 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T / 0.45 × 10 ⁻ ⁴ T <span>
tan θ = 1.326</span></span>
θ = 53°
<span>
<span>The compass needle points along the direction of 53° west of
north.</span></span>
Answer:
3 m/s
Explanation:
The slope is distance divided by time, also known as 'speed'.
15 meters / 5 seconds = 3 meters per second.
The force that pushes charges through a wire is called voltage. Electric
current is the movement of the electrons caused by potential difference. For example,
in a circuit, the electrons in the bulb will not move without the potential
difference or voltage. When there is voltage, electric current occurs because
there is a driving force for the electrons in the wire to move.
Answer:
The catcher does negative work on the ball because the force exerted by the catcher is opposite in direction to the motion of the ball.
