Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).
Explanation:
The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.
When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.
The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.
For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:
--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),
--> Water vapor (H2O), and
--> Methane (CH4)
Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.
Answer:
- Decreasing the resistance
- Using a shorter length
- Using a smaller area wire
Explanation:
Formula for conductance in wires is;
G = 1/R
Where;
G is conductance
R is resistance
This means that increasing the resistance leads to a larger denominator and thus a smaller conductance but to decrease the denominator means larger conductance.
Thus, to increase the conductance, we have to decrease the resistance.
Resistance here has a formula of;
R = ρL/A
Where;
ρ is resistivity
L is length of wire
A is area
Thus, to decrease the resistance, we will have to use a shorter length and smaller area of wire.
The answer is C 300,000 kilometers per second
Since force = mass X acceleration, then the force he excerts on the earth (aka his weight) equals his mass times the force of gravity.
Therefore
W = (66 kg) X (9.8 m/ss)
W = 646.8 kgm/ss
kg m/ss are also known as Newtons, so your answer is...
646.8 N
Answer:
Changes in the object's momentum (answer D)
Explanation:
A net force will cause an object to change its velocity, and that will affect the object's momentum, which is defined by the product of the object's mass times its velocity.
So, select the last option (D) in the given list.
