Answer:

Human activities and natural processes have influenced the change in the global temperature by the following processes

1) Green house gas such as carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels the use of  industrial chemicals, the production of coal, and natural gas

2) Deforestation which reduces the natural process of conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen, thereby, increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

3) The accumulation of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere results in the trapping of heat in the atmosphere, causing the atmospheric temperature to rise

4) Changes in the amount of energy produced by the Sun can result in an increase or decrease in the atmospheric temperature

5) Volcanic activity that occurs at a sufficiently large scale can produce sulfur dioxide that blocks the rays of the Sun from reaching the Earth, resulting in a change of atmospheric temperature.

UNO [17]
<h2>Spring constant is 14.72 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

We have for a spring

            Force =  Spring constant x Elongation

            F = kx

Here force is weight of mass

           F = W = mg = 0.54 x 9.81 = 5.3 N

Elongation, x  = 36 cm = 0.36 m

Substituting

           F = kx

           5.3 = k x 0.36

             k = 14.72 N/m

Spring constant is 14.72 N/m

a 20 kg sig is pulled by a horizontal force such that the single rope holding the sign make an angle of 21 degree with the verti
True [87]

Answer:

T= 210.15 N

F= 75.31 N

Explanation:

Let the tension in string be T newton.

According to the question

⇒T×cos21°= mg

⇒T= mg/cos21°

⇒T=20×9.81/cos21

⇒T= 210.15 N

now, the magnitude of horizontal force

F= Tsin21°

⇒F= 210.15×sin21°

=75.31 N

An object is moving east, and its velocity changes from 66 mvs to 26 mvs in 10 seconds. Which describes the
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

negative acceleration of 4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 66m/s

Final velocity = 26m/s

Time taken = 10s

Unknown:

Description of the acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

    acceleration  = \frac{v - u}{t}

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

    Acceleration  = \frac{26 - 66}{10}   = -4m/s²

So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²

A pendulum that moves through its equilibrium position once every 1.000 s is sometimes called a “seconds pendulum.” what is the
horrorfan [7]
The equilibrium position for a pendulum is straight down. If it moves through that position every second then its period is actually 2 seconds. This is because the period is how long it takes to go from one extreme and back again. It will pass through the equilibrium point twice when doing this. Once on the way down and again on the way back.
