Answer:

ΔV=0.00043 L

Explanation:

Given that

V= 0.3 L

T= 14 °C

T'=27°C

Coefficient of volume expansion

\beta _{mercury}=1.8\times 10^{-4}\ C^{-1}

\beta _{Almunium}=0.69\times 10^{-4}\ C^{-1}

\Delta V=(\beta _{mercury}-\beta _{Almunium} )V\Delta T

\Delta V=(1.8\times 10^{-4} - 0.69\times 10^{-4})\times 0.3\times (27-14)

ΔV=0.00043 L

Answer:

The shortest braking distance is 35.8 m

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law applied to the boxes, on the vertical axis we have the norm up and the weight vertically down

On the horizontal axis we fear the force of friction (fr) that opposes the movement and acceleration of the train, write the equation for each axis

    Y axis

     N- W = 0

     N = W = mg

  X axis

     -Fr = m a

     -μ N = m a

     -μ mg = ma

     a = μ g

     a  = - 0.32 9.8

     a =  - 3.14 m/s²

We calculate the distance using the kinematics equations

    Vf² = Vo² + 2 a x

     x = (Vf² - Vo²) / 2 a

When the train stops the speed is zero (Vf = 0)

 Vo = 54 km/h (1000m/1km) (1 h/3600s)= 15 m/s

     x = ( 0 - 15²) / 2 (-3.14)

     x=  35.8 m

The shortest braking distance is  35.8 m

Which interactions are part of the greenhouse effect? Select three options.
Allisa [31]

<u>Out of the given options, the following interactions are part of the greenhouse effect, </u>

  • Gases in the atmosphere absorb heat
  • Earth’s surface radiates energy back into the atmosphere
  • Gases in the atmosphere radiate heat back to the surface

Answers: Options A, D and E

<u>Explanation: </u>

The greenhouse effect, basically a warming effect caused by the greenhouse gases such as Carbon-Di-oxide, Methane, nitrous oxides, water vapour etc. These gases usually trap the heat that Earth Absorbs by the Sun.  

In the day time, the Earth absorbs the energy in the form of heat which is radiated by the Sun. In the evening, the process gets reversed and the Earth starts releasing that heat into the atmosphere.

Now, this heat gets absorbed by this gases before it leaves the Earth's atmosphere and gets trapped there only, resulting in the temperature raise of the Earth's environment.

So, the prime causes of the greenhouse effect remains as the heat radiation from the Sun, the absorption of that heat by the Earth surface and the further absorption of that heat produced by the greenhouse gases that present in the atmosphere.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

not captured for use by living things

Explanation:

The sun is a star with a high radiation and most of(around 55-67%) the radiation that reaches the earth is usually reflected back. The earth cannot use all the energy that reaches the earth. It uses almost around 15-30%
