Answer:

Earth would suddenly warm up because more heat from the Sun would be allowed to enter the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The greenhouse gasses would make the ozone layer thinner letting in more harmful rays on the sun.

Hope this helps!! :)

Also I need one more brainliest if you dont mind giving it to me :)

adell [148]

Answer:

A. Gamma rays have higher energy than microwaves because gamma rays have shorter wavelengths.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves produced by the interaction between both magnetic and electric fields. These waves have some properties that make them to be arranged in a definite form producing an electromagnetic spectrum.

The spectrum has a general property of which as the wavelength of the waves increases, the frequency decreases. And vice versa.

Thus, the energy of the waves increases as the frequency increases.

Gamma rays have higher frequency, but shorter wavelength. While microwaves has lower frequency, but higher wavelength.

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum speed of 35.5 m/s. a) What is the coeff

postnew [5]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is <u>0.833</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the curve (R) = 150 m

Maximum speed of truck (v) = 35.5 m/s

Let the coefficient of friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck be "μ".

As the truck is moving around a circular curve. So, the force acting on it is centripetal force which acts in the radial inward direction towards the center of the circular curve.

The centripetal force acting on the truck is given as:

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}$

Now, the friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is responsible for providing the necessary centripetal force. So, frictional force is equal to the centripetal force necessary for circular motion.

Frictional force is given as:

$f=\mu N$

Where, 'N' is the normal force. Since there is no vertical motion, the normal force is equal to weight of truck. So,

$N=mg$

Therefore, frictional force, $f=\mu mg$

Now, frictional force = centripetal force

$f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu = \frac{v^2}{Rg}$

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

$\mu=\frac{(35\ m/s)^2}{(150\ m)(9.8\ m/s^2)}\\\\\mu=\frac{1225\ m^2/s^2}{1470\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.833$

Therefore, the coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is 0.833

A sinusoidal wave has period 0.20 s and wavelength 2.0 m. What is the wave speed?

il63 [147K]

Answer:10m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed ,v=for

Where π= wavelength=2m

Period =1/f f=frequency of wave

F=1/period

=1/0.2=5Hz

So speed of waves,v=5×2=10m/s

Heat is applied to an ice cube in a closed container until only steam is present. draw a representation of this process, assumin

olga55 [171]

The solid, liquid and gas phases of water would have the same structure of the molecules since they are same substance. The only difference would be the distances of the molecules in the container. For a ice, the molecules are close to each other where the molecules vibrate only in place. For liquid, the molecules are freely moving and are at some distance with each other but not that far away with each other. Steam, on the other hand, would have molecules that are very far from each other and are freely moving in the whole container. As the container is heated, the size of the molecules would not change. It is only the volume that has changed. Also, the mass is the same since there is no outflow of the substances.
