MakcuM [25]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

F1 = G m1 m2 / R^2        force of attraction

F2 = G m1 m2 / (R/2)^2

F2 / F1 = 4       the force of gravity will be quadrupled

Which describes the greenhouse effect? 1. Earth continues to get warmer over time because it is slowly moving closer to the sun.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

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.

Two point charges are separated by 10 cm, with an attractive force between them of 15 N. Find the force between them when they a
suter [353]

Answer:

(a) the force is 8.876 N

(b) the magnitude of each charge is 4.085 μC

Explanation:

Part (a)

Given;

coulomb's constant, K = 8.99 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

distance between two charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

force between the two charges, F = 15 N

when the distance between the charges changes to 13 cm (0.13 m)

force between the two charges, F = ?

Apply Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\let \ Kq_1q_2 = C\\\\F =\frac{C}{r^2} \\\\C = Fr^2\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\F_2 =\frac{F_1r_1^2}{r_2^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{15*0.1^2}{0.13^2} \\\\F_2 = 8.876 \ N

Part (b)

the magnitude of each charge, if they have equal magnitude

F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2}

where;

F is the force between the charges

K is Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge

r is the distance between the charges

F = \frac{KQ^2}{r^2} \\\\Q = \sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{K} } \\\\Q =  \sqrt{\frac{15*(0.1)^2}{8.99*10^9} } = 4.085 *10^{-6} \ C\\\\Q = 4.085 \ \mu C

How much thermal energy is needed to melt 1.25 kg of water at its melting point? Use Q = masslaten heat of fusion.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Latent heatnof fusion = 417.5 J

Explanation:

Specific latent heat of fusion of water is 334kJ.kg-1.

The heat required to melt water when it's ice I called latent heat because there is no temperature change, the only change observed is change in physical structure.

The amount of heat required to change 1 kg of solid to its liquid state (at its melting point) at atmospheric pressure is called Latent heat of Fusion.

Latent heat = ML

Latent heat= 1.25 kg * 334kJ.kg-1

Latent heat = 1.25*334 *(J/kg)*kg

Latent heat = 417.5 J

A ball is projected with an initial velocity of 40 meter per second and reached maximum height of 160 meters calculate tge angle
Andru [333]

There's a problem with the question as given. Even with a maximum projection angle of <em>θ</em> = 90°, the initial velocity is not large enough to get the ball up in the air 160 m. With angle 90°, the ball's height <em>y</em> at time <em>t</em> would be

<em>y</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em> - 1/2 <em>g t</em> ²

Set <em>y</em> = 160 m, and you'll find that there is no (real) solution for<em> t</em>, so the ball never attains the given maximum height.

From another perspective: recall that

<em>v </em>² - <em>v</em>₀² = 2<em>a </em>∆<em>y</em>

where

• <em>v</em>₀ = initial velocity

• <em>v</em> = final velocity

• <em>a</em> = acceleration

• ∆<em>y</em> = displacement

At its maximum height, the ball has zero vertical velocity, and ∆<em>y</em> = maximum height = 160 m. The ball is in free fall once it's launched, so <em>a</em> = -<em>g</em>.

So we have

0² - (40 m/s)² = -2<em>g </em>(160 m)

but this reduces to

(40 m/s)² = 2 (9.8 m/s²) (160 m)

1600 m²/s² ≠ 3136 m²/s²

If you are given distance and a period of time what can you calculate
Digiron [165]

If you are given distance and a period of time, you can calculate the speed. The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion (e.g. 60 km/h to the north).
