Once energy from the Sun gets to Earth, several things can happen to it:
Energy can be scattered or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols are dust, soot, sulfates and nitric oxides. When aerosols absorb energy, the atmosphere becomes warmer. When aerosols scatter energy, the atmosphere is cooled.
Short wavelengths are absorbed by ozone in the stratosphere.
Clouds may act to either reflect energy out to space or absorb energy, trapping it in the atmosphere.
The land and water at Earth's surface may act to either reflect energy or absorb it. Light colored surfaces are more likely to reflect sunlight, while dark surfaces typically absorb the energy, warming the planet.
Albedo is the percentage of the Sun's energy that is reflected back by a surface. Light colored surfaces like ice have a high albedo, while dark colored surfaces tend to have a lower albedo. The buildings and pavement in cities have such a low albedo that cities have been called "heat islands" because they absorb so much energy that they warm up.
Both waves would increase right? That seems correct since the water and air temp both equally changed.
Answer:
It is sensible heat- the amount of heat absorbed by 1 kg of water when heated at a constant pressure from freezing point 0 degree Celsius to the temperature of formation of steam i.e. saturation temperature
So it is given as - mass× specific heat × rise in temperature
i.e. 4.2 × T
4.2 × (100–0)
So it is 420kj
If you ask how much quantity of heat is required to convert 1 kg of ice into vapour then you have to add latent heat of fusion that is 336 kj/kg and latent heat of vaporization 2257 kj/kg (these two process occur at constant temperature so need to add rise in tempeature)
So it will be
Q= 1×336 + 1× 4.18 ×100 + 1× 2257
Q = 3011 kj
Or 3.1 Mj
Hope you got this!!!!!!
Answer:
λ
=8.57 μ m
Explanation:
Given that
Ey = 375 cos [kx − (2.20 × 10¹⁴ rad/s)t] N/C
Standard form
Ey=Eo cos[k x-ωt] N/C
By comparing the given equation with the standard wave equation
Eo = 375 N/C
ω = 2.20 × 10¹⁴ rad/s
We know that ω = 2 π f
f=3.50×10¹³ Hz
We know that the velocity given as
V = f λ
λ
=Wavelength
V=Speed = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
λ
=0.00000857 m ( 1 μ m = 10⁶ m)
λ
=8.57 μ m
