What is the process called in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat?
saw5 [17]

The process in which water vapour and carbon dioxide traps heat is called the “greenhouse effect”.

 

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which occurs every day. To illustrate an example of this natural phenomenon, d<span>uring the day the Sun shines through the atmosphere. Earth's surface warms up because of the sunlight. Meanwhile at night in the absence of the sunlight, Earth's surface cools back and releasing the heat back into the air. However some of the heat is retained by the greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and water vapour) in the atmosphere. This process what keeps our planet Earth warm and cozy at an average temperature of 16°C.</span>

3000 N is exerted for 4.0 seconds on a 9500 kg object.<br><br> What is the change in momentum?
WARRIOR [948]
Force is the change in momentum over a specific time. The change of momentum is therefore the force multiplied by the time that the force acts, so 3000x4.0=12000 N s=12000 kg m/s

A current of 15.0 A flows through an electric heater operating on 120 V. Compute the power consumption of the electric heater.
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

There will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Explanation:

We have given current flowing in the heater I = 15 A

Voltage on which heater is operating V = 120 volt

We have to find the power consumption in the heater

We know that power consumption is given by P = VI

So power consumption in heater = 120 × 15 = 1800 W

So there will be 1800 W power consumption in heater

Police radar equipment is used to detect the speed of objects. In one trial, the radar equipment records a stationary tree as tr
Brut [27]

Answer:

reliability

accuracy

Explanation:

If a reading of a measurement is consistently the same then the measurement is reliable.

If a reading of measurement is close the actual value of the measurement then the reading is accurate.

Here, a stationary tree shows reading 6 mph once and 0 mph another instant. So, neither the reading of a measurement is consistent not the reading of measurement is close the actual value.

Hence, the radar has problems in its reliability and accuracy

A cat’s crinkle ball toy of mass 15g is thrown straight up with an initial speed of 3m/s. Assume in this problem that air drag i
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

P.E = 0.068 J = 68 mJ

Explanation:

First we need to find the height attained by the ball toy. For this purpose, we will be using 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vf² - Vi²

where,

g = -9.8 m/s²  (negative sign due to upward motion)

h = height attained by the ball toy = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (since it momentarily stops at the highest point)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 3 m/s

Therefore,

2(-9.8 m/s²)h = (0 m/s)² - (3 m/s)²

h = (9 m²/s²)/(19.6 m/s²)

h = 0.46 m

Now, the gravitational potential energy of ball at its peak is given by the following formula:

P.E = mgh

P.E = (0.015 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(0.46 m)

<u>P.E = 0.068 J = 68 mJ</u>
