Why might a major volcanic eruption lead to cooler global temperatures? Explain your answer.

Physics

irina [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Volcanic eruptions cool down  the planet

Explanation:

Volcanic eruptions actually cool the planet because the particles ejected from volcanoes shade incoming solar radiation. ... The small ash and aerosol particles decrease the amount of sunlight reaching the surface of the Earth and lower average global temperatures.

Hope this helps!!! :D

Compare the gravitational force the sun exerts on Earth to the gravitational force Earth exerts on the sun.
podryga [215]

Answer:

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.

Explanation:

While comparing the gravitational force exerted by two objects, we need to observe which object has a greater mass.

  • The object with the greater mass exerts a more gravitational force on the other object.

We know that mass of the sun is about 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg, and the earth's mass is only 6.0 x 10²⁴.

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.

A car’s headlights dissipate 40 W on low beam and 50 W on high beam. Is there more or less resistance in the high-beam filament?
love history [14]

Answer:

The high-beam filament has more resistance than low beam filament.

Explanation:

To determine if the 50 W dissipated by a car’s headlights on high beam, has more or less resistance, formula for power dissipated in the filament is used.

Power = IV

Voltage =IR

∴ Power = I*IR = I²R

where;

I is the current

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

From the equation above, Power dissipated is directly proportional to Resistance.

Hence, the high-beam filament has more resistance than low beam filament.

In a 4.0-kilometer race, a runner completes the first kilometer in 5.9 minutes, the second kilometer in 6.2 minutes, the third k
Svetlanka [38]

As per the question the total distance is given as 4 km.

We are asked to calculate the average speed.

The time taken by the body to travel each kilometre are 5.9 min,6.2 min.,6.3min. and 6 min. respectively.

The average speed of a body is defined as the ratio of total distance travelled by the body to the total time.

Mathematically the average speed is written as _

V= Total distance/Total time

i.e V = S/T

Where S is the total distance travelled and T is the total time

Here total distance (S)= 4 km

The total time T= (5.9+6.2 +6.3+ 6.0 )minutes

=24.4 min.

Hence average speed V = 4 km/24.4 min

= 0.16 km/min.

Hence the correct option is A .
