Answer:
Specific heat capacity means that in order to raise copper by 1C per kg, it needs 380J of heat energy.
C) the moon does not have a strong magnetic field
Answer:
A model rocket is launched with an initial upward velocity of 215 ft/s.
Explanation:
Answer:
EP = 49.05Joules (J)
Explanation:
The equation for Potential energy (EP) is
EP = m g h
We are given the values below (do convert them into SI units)
m = 0.0025kg
h = 2000m
g = 9.81m/
Substitute the values into the equation and solve for EP
EP = 0.0025 * 2000 * 9.81
EP = 49.05Joules (J)
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.
