first of all, wind energy is a renewable source of energy and fossil fuels is a non renewable
the method of obtaining them is also different i.e , wind energy can be obtained when wind turns turbines , and fossil fuels are burned to give energy...
Answer:
Greenhouse gases absorb radiation from the EARTH and reradiate back toward the EARTHwhich help to maintain a normal temperature range in the Earth.
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases are gases that are capable to of absorbing infrared radiations that are emitted from the Earth's surface and reradiating back to the Earth which contributed to the greenhouse effects. Examples of greenhouse gases are carbondioxide, methane and water vapour. Others are ozones, flourinated gases, nitrous oxides e.t.c.
The green house gases has lead to climate changes in the Earth by trapping heat, the contribute to respiratory diseases by smog and air pollution. Greenhouse gases concentrations are high during warm seasons and low during cold seasons.
Answer:182.25 joules
Explanation:
Mass=0.18kg
Velocity=45m/s
Kinetic energy=(mass x(velocity)^2)➗2
Kinetic energy=(0.18 x 45^2) ➗ 2
Kinetic energy=(0.18x45x45) ➗ 2
Kinetic energy=364.5 ➗ 2
Kinetic energy=182.25
Kinetic energy=182.25 joules
Seafloor spreading occurs when two plates diverge
Answer:
A: Oxygen levels are low and, therefore, more red blood cells are produced, giving the athletes an advantage when competing at lower altitudes.
Explanation:
<em>At high altitudes, the partial pressure of oxygen is lower compared to lower altitudes</em>. The body system try to adjust to lower oxygen level by undergoing several physiological changes. Depending on the duration spent in high altitude, the body can either try to adjust in the short term or acclimatize for a longer term.
One of the processes the body undergoes during acclimatization is an increase in red blood cell production. The kidney secretes erythropotein in response to inadequate oxygen in body tissues, and this makes the liver to increase erythrocyte production.
The increase in red blood cell production correspondingly increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood as a result of increased hemoglobin. This condition persists for a few weeks even after the body returns to lower altitude where oxygen is adequate. Increased oxygen capacity means the rate of energy production (through respiration) within the body will also increase
<em>Hence, those who acclimatize to high altitude usually experience increased capillary density, tissue perfusion and improved athletic performance at lower altitudes. </em>
The correct option is A.
