Answer:

The atmosphere changes the temperature of the planet because of its transparency.

On Earth, sunlight reaches the Earth, which warms it. On a planet such as Jupiter, the planet is entirely surrounded in a thick and toxic gas. This limits the amount of sunlight that can reach the surface, which also decreases the temperature.

The existence of atmosphere increases the average planetary temperature by more than 15°C, due to the greenhouse effect of some atmospheric compounds. The most important of them are water vapour (H2O), ozone (O3), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4).

A ball is tossed vertically upwards with a speed of 5.0 m s–1. After how many seconds will the ball return to its initial positi

mezya [45]

Answer:

1.02 seconds

Explanation:

Initial velocity = u = 5 m/s

t = Time taken

s = Displacement travelled = 0

a = Acceleration due to gravity = -9.81 m/s² (negative sign due to direction)

Equation of motion

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 0=5t+\frac{1}{2}-9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow 0=5t-4.905t^2\\\Rightarrow 0=t(5-4.905t)\\\Rightarro 0=5-4.905t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-5}{-4.905}=1.02\ seconds$

So, time taken to return to its initial position is 1.02 seconds
