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:
e. All of these statements are false.
Explanation:
As we know that heat transfer take place from high temperature to low temperature.
It is possible to convert all work into heat but it is not possible to convert all heat in to work some heat will be reject to the surrounding.
The first law of thermodynamics is the energy conservation law.
Second law of thermodynamics states that it is impossible to construct a device which convert all energy into work without rejecting the heat to the surrounding.
By using heat pump ,heat can transfer from cooler body to the hotter body.
Therefore all the answer is False.
Answer:
3560.36 Watts
Explanation:
Power,
where P is power, n is the number of skiers, t is time in seconds and Δt is change in time, ΔW is given by mgh where m is mass, g is gravitational constant, h is height
Substituting n for 4 skiers, m for 62.9 Kg, g for 9.81, h for 148 m and t for 1.71*60=102.6 seconds
P=
Average power is approximately 3560.36 Watts
Answer:
Option (4)
Explanation:
There are two types of collision.
Perfectly elastic collision: the collision in which the momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. There is no loss of energy in other forms of energy.
Perfectly plastic collision: The collision in which the momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. The two bodies stick after the collision.
Here, the bullet hits the block and then embedded in the block, it is the example of plastic collision.
Answer:
wavelength = v/f or wavelength equals to velocity over frequency
frequency= v/w or velocity over wavelength
frequency= 1/p or one over period or time
