Greenhouse gasses in the upper atmosphere trap heat from the Earth and reflect it back down rather than allow it to escape. This makes Earth progressively warmer.

Scientists often say that light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation have a dual nature
Alex

Answer:

Behaves as a wave.

Explanation:

The dual nature of light means that light behaves as a wave. If the light consisted of small particles, the alternating light and dark bands would not have occurred.

Sometimes it behaves like a particle (called a photon), which explains how light travels in straight lines.

Calculate the pressure exerted on the floor by the boy standing on both feet if the weight of the boy is 40kg. Assume that the a
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

P = 1333.33 N

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by the boy on the floor can be calculated by the following equation:

P = \frac{F}{A}

where,

P = Pressure exerted by the boy = ?

F = Force Applied = Weight of Boy = 40 kg = 40 N (since 1 kg = 1N)

A = Area of application of force = 2(Area of one show) = 2(6 cm x 25 cm)

A = 2(0.06 m x 0.25 m) = 0.03 m²

Therefore,

P = \frac{40\ N}{0.03\ m^2}\\\\

<u>P = 1333.33 N</u>

What is the difference between condensation and precipitation
Alexxandr [17]

Explanation:

The water cycle is based on three parts;

1. Evaporation

2. Condensation

3. Participation

Condensation:

It is the process in which water vapor changes into liquid water or in other words, it is the transition from the gaseous state to liquid state.

Precipitation:

It is the process in which any liquid or frozen water such as snow that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth

Condensation depends on temperature and pressure whereas precipitation depends on the temperature and the concentration of the solution.

A composite material is to be designed with epoxy (Em 3.5 GPa) and unidirectional fibers. The longitudinal elastic modulus of th
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Minimum elastic modulus of fiber = 455.64 GPa

Explanation:

Contents of composite material = Epoxy and Unidirectional fibers

Elastic modulus of epoxy = 3.5 GPa

Elastic modulus of composite material = 320 GPa

Volume fraction of fiber = 70 %

Volume fraction of epoxy = 100 - 70 = 30%

Elastic modulus of composite material = 3.5 x 0.3 + Elastic modulus of fiber x 0.7 = 320

0.7 x Elastic modulus of fiber = 320 - 1.05 = 318.95

Elastic modulus of fiber = 455.64 GPa

Minimum elastic modulus of fiber = 455.64 GPa
