Answer:

That is a very broad question. One thing that does not seem to be considered is the depletion of the ozone layer at high altitudes.

In the 1960's chlorofluorcarbons (CFC,s) became popular as refrigerants, spray can propellants, etc.  In January 1989 the Montreal Protocol was passed which has greatly reduced the use of these substances. However, it may be several decades before the ozone layer can be replaced and again absorb harmful ulraviolet rays that may be partly responsible for the increase in global warming.  

(One chlorine atom at high altitudes can be responsible for the destruction of 100,000 molecules of ozone - catalytic reaction)

Determine the diameter of the largest circular hole that can be punched into a sheet of polystyrene 6 mm thick, knowing that the
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

43.41 mm

Explanation:

Given:

thickness of sheet, t = 6 mm

Force exerted by punch, F = 45 KN

Average shearing stress, T = 55 MPa

From average shearing stress T = Force F / Area A

Hence area = force/stress =45000/ 55 =818.18 mm^2

From area = pi*diameter*thickness

diameter = area/(pi* thickness)

= 818.18/(3.142*6)

= 43.41 mm

How does bimettalic strip work?
mafiozo [28]
A traditional thermostat has two pieces of different metals bolted together to form what's called a bimetallic strip (or bimetal strip). The strip works as a bridge in an electrical circuit connected to your heating system. ... Eventually, it bends so much that it breaks open the circuit.
