Answer:

Infinity

Explanation:

When you have a limit approaching infinity one method you can use is to remember that the highest power dominants all of the other ones so when we have (t^2)/t-1 like in your problem, we see that t^2 has the highest power of 2 so if that's going to infinity and it's not being divided by any powers higher than it will just be inifinity.

Which is the one factor that adds to the greenhouse effect? 1. a decrease in the amount of dust in the atmosphere 2. a decrease
lukranit [14]

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.

Arsenic diffusion in Si: Arsenic is diffused into a thick slice of silicon with no previous arsenic in it at 1100ºC. If the surf
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Diffusion time is 7.42 h

Solution:

As per the question:

Temperature, T = 1100^{\circ}C

Surface concentration of arsenic, C_{S} = 5.0\times 10^{18}\ atoms/cm^{3}

Surface concentration below Silicon surface, C_{x} = 1.5\times 10^{16}\ atoms/cm^{3}

D = 3.0\times 10^{- 14}\ cm^{2}/s

x = 1.2\mu m = 1.2\times 10^{- 4}\ cm

Initial concentration at t = 0, C_{o} = 0

Now, by using Flick's second eqn:

\frac{C_{S} - C_{x}}{C_{x} - C_{o}} = erf(\frac{x}{\sqrt{Dt}})

Thus by putting appropriate values:

\frac{5.0\times 10^{18} - 1.5\times 10^{16}}{5.0\times 10^{18}} = erf(\frac{1.2\times 10^{- 4}}{2\sqrt{3.0\times 10^{- 14}t}})

0.997 = erf(\frac{364.4}{\sqrt{t}})              (1)

Now,

erf(z) = 0.997

Now, from error function values tabulation:

For z = 2.0, erf(z) = 0.998

For z = 2.2, erf(z) = 0.995

Now,

With the help of linear interpolation method:

\frac{z - 2}{2.2 - 2.0} = \frac{0.997 - 0.995}{0.998 - 0.995}

z = 2.12

Now, using eqn (1) and above value:

\frac{364.4}{\sqrt{t}} = 2.12

t = (\frac{364.4}{2.12})^{2} = 26700 s

t = \frac{26700}{3600} = 7.42\ h

When we kept the Earth's mass the same, but shrank its size, we saw that had an effect on its escape speed. Albert Einstein used
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

The escape velocity is the velocity needed by any object to overcome the gravitational force of the planet on which it’s present. Now we know that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of the planet and inversely proportional to the distance of the object from the center of planet.

If we keep the mass of earth constant and decrease the size of the earth than this will decrease the distance between the object and the center of the earth and thus the gravitational force that will act on the body will increase substantially which will in turn increase the value of the escape velocity.

The value of escape velocity will keep on increasing as the size of the earth will shrink till it reaches to a point when the value of escape velocity becomes more than the speed of light and since it’s impossible to travel with a speed greater than the speed of light and therefore at this point it will become impossible for a spacecraft to escape the earth.

At t = 0, one toy car is set rolling on a straight track with initial position 13.5 cm, initial velocity -4.2 cm/s, and constant
Blizzard [7]
(a) We must first look at the formulas of the velocities of each toy car. v1 =
-4.2 + 2.60t. v2 = 5.20. When the two cars have equal speed, then 
v1 = v2
-4.2 + 2.60t = 5.20
2.60t = 9.40
t = 3.62 s

(b) Their speed would then be 5.20 m/s. The toy car does not change speed since it doest not have any acceleration.
(c) The two cars will pass each other when their positions are equal.
x1 = 13.5 - 4.2t + 0.5*2.60t^2
x2 = 8.5 + 5.20t
x1 = x2
13.5 - 4.2t + 1.30t^2 = 8.5 + 5.20t
1.30t^2 - 9.40t + 5.0 = 0
t = 6.65s or t = 0.58 s
