explain how the temperature of the earth is maintained and how it’s affected by other factors (6 marks)

Physics

Answer:

The temperature of the Earth depends on many factors, including the concentration of greenhouse gases such as water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide. The Earth's temperature also depends on the rates at which light radiation and infrared radiation are: absorbed by the Earth's surface and atmosphere.

Fudgin [204]

The constant is the temperature of the air that the plants get.

The independent variable is the thing that YOU control.  That's the amount of sunlight each plant gets.

The <em>dependent variable</em> is anything that's caused by changes in the independent variable.  That's the growth of the plants.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

a) 17.33 V/m

b) 6308 m/s

Explanation:

We start by using equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2at², where

s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

u = 0 m/s

t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that

0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²

0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11

a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12

a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²

If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where

E = electric field

m = mass of proton

a = acceleration

q = charge of proton

E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19

E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19

E = 17.33 V/m

Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using

v = u + at

v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6

v = 6308 m/s

A swan on a lake gets airborne by flapping its wings and running on top of the water. If the swan must reach a velocity of 6.00
ira [324]

Answer:

A. 51.42 m.

B. 17.14 s.

Explanation:

Using equations of motion:

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * aS

Where,

vf = final velocity

a = acceleration

S = distance to which swan traveled

vi = 0 m/s

6.00^2 = 2 * 0.350S

S = 36/0.7

= 51.42 m.

B.

vf = vi + at

6 = 0 + 0.35t

t = 6/0.35

= 17.14 s.
