The greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without this atmosphere. Radiatively active gases in a planet's atmosphere radiate energy in all directions

Answer:

The answer is

A. Pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

Explanation:

 The question is incomplete, here is a complete question with full options

You are caulking a window. The caulk is rather thick and, to lay the bead correctly, the exit nozzle is small. A caulking gun uses a plunger which is operated by pulling back on a handle. You must squeeze the handle very hard to get the caulk to come out of the narrow opening because:_________.

A. pressure is distributed uniformly throughout the fluid and the area of the plunger is much larger than the area of the opening.

B. viscous drag between the walls of the tip and the caulk causes the caulk to swirl around chaotically.

C. Newton’s third law requires most of the energy in the caulk to be used to push back on the plunger rather than moving it through the tip.

D. the high density of the caulk impedes its flow through the small opening.

Since the caulk is thick and the exit nozzle is small, the pressure needed to deliver the caulk will be very high as pressure is uniformly distributed at the plunger side at every part of the caulk, hence very high pressure is needed to deliver the caulk which is why the handle needed the very hard squeeze

A person is standing on a scale in an unmoving elevator. The elevator starts to move upwards at 1 m/s squared. Is the scale read
timama [110]

Answer: GREATER

Explanation:when elevator does not move it reads weight of the person . when elevator moves up let apparent weight be F . W acts downwards so net force is F-W

HENCE

F-W =ma

F= ma+W

AS a= 1 m/s^2

F = m (1)+W

HENCE GREATER

A schoolbus accelerates to 65 mph and enters the freeway. It travels for 2.3 hours at that speed while on the freeway. What's th
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

Explanation:

The school bus travels on the freeway at constant speed. According to the statement, we need to calculate the distance travelled by the vehicle by means of the following formula:

x = v\cdot t (1)

Where:

x - Traveled distance, in miles.

v - Speed, in miles per hour.

t - Time, in hours.

If we know that v = 65\,\frac{mi}{h} and t = 2.3\,h, then the distance travelled by the school bus is:

x = v\cdot t

x =  \left(65\,\frac{mi}{h} \right)\cdot (2.3\,h)

x = 149.5\,mi

The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.

During lightning strikes from a cloud to the ground, currents as high as 2.50×104 A can occur and last for about 40.0 μs . How m
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

<h3>The charge transferred from the cloud to earth is 1 Coulomb.</h3>

Explanation:

Given :

Current I = 2.5 \times 10^{4} A

Time t = 40 \times 10^{-6} sec

We know that the current is the rate of flow of charge.

From the formula of current,

<h3>  I = \frac{Q}{t}</h3>

Where Q = charge transfer between cloud and earth.

 Q =I t

Q = 2.5 \times 10^{4} \times 40 \times 10^{-6}

Q = 1 C

Hence, the charge transferred from the cloud to earth is 1 Coulomb.
