Consider the possible scenarios and determine which of them are true for positive feedbacks or negative feedbacks.A. Increased p

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Scenario A, B and E is True.

Explanation:

Scenario A) True. Removing carbon dioxide from atmosphere decreases greenhouse effect of atmosphere. Thus, temperature rise decreases.

Scenario B) True. The more evaporation creates the more greenhouse effect. Therefore, temperature rise increases.

Scenario C) False. Removing carbon dioxide from atmosphere decreases greenhouse effect of atmosphere. Thus, temperature rise decreases.

Scenario D) False. The more evaporation creates the more greenhouse effect. Therefore, temperature rise increases.

Scenario E) True. If reflected radiation increases from Earth, temperature rise of the Earth will decrease. Ice cover increases reflectivity which leads temperature level decrease.

Scenario F) False. If reflected radiation increases from Earth, temperature rise of the Earth will decrease. Ice cover increases reflectivity which leads temperature level decrease.

Find the hiker’s gravitational potential energy if the cliff is 60m high

Furkat [3]

Answer:

Potential energy is $U=mgh$

Explanation:

The potential energy depends on the mass, the acceleration of gravity g and the height at which the object or person is.

Potential energy $U=mgh$

In this case we would need to know the exact mass of the hiker in order to calculate the potential energy.

But we know the values of g and h

$g=9.81m/s^2$

$h=60m$

So, the potential energy

$U=m(9.81m/s^2)(60m)\\\\U=588.6*m$

m is the mass of the hiker, wich is not in the description of the problem.

A long string is wrapped around a 6.6-cm-diameter cylinder, initially at rest, that is free to rotate on an axle. The string is

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

$\omega_f=571.42\ rpm$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of cylinder, d = 6.6 cm

Radius of cylinder, r = 3.3 cm = 0.033 m

Acceleration of the string, $a=1.5\ m/s^2$

Displacement, d = 1.3 m

The angular acceleration is given by :

$\alpha =\dfrac{a}{r}$

$\alpha =\dfrac{1.5}{0.033}$

$\alpha =45.46\ rad/s^2$

The angular displacement is given by :

$\theta=\dfrac{d}{r}$

$\theta=\dfrac{1.3}{0.033}$

$\theta=39.39\ rad$

Using the third equation of rotational kinematics as :

$\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta$

Here, $\omega_i=0$

$\omega_f=\sqrt{2\alpha \theta}$

$\omega_f=\sqrt{2\times 45.46\times 39.39}$

$\omega_f=59.84\ rad/s$

Since, 1 rad/s = 9.54 rpm

So,

$\omega_f=571.42\ rpm$

So, the angular speed of the cylinder is 571.42 rpm. Hence, this is the required solution.

Does parallax affect the precision of a measurement that you make

Paul [167]

Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

How are theories and laws connected

Anni [7]

Answer:

Laws are statements about something that's been observed and stated while a theory is an explanation of what's been observed. This connection between them forms a main idea that many people regulate as "what's normal."
