Which of these statements best describes how an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change?

1 answer:

5 0

I believe the answer is D. <span> More sunlight is trapped by the atmosphere to cause global warming.
Even though Atmosphere usually contains Co2, the amount is really minor and heat from the Sunlight usually still able to reflected outside under noermal circumtances. But, due to usage of fossil fuels, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is significantly increased and making the sunlight unable to reflected outside and trapped within the Earth.</span>

Two charges, Q1 and Q2, are separated by 6·cm. The repulsive force between them is 25·N. In each case below, find the force betw

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

a) 5 N b) 225 N c) 5 N

Explanation:

a) Per Coulomb's Law the repulsive force between 2 equal sign charges, is directly proportional to the product of the charges, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, acting along the line that joins the charges, as follows:

F₁₂ = K Q₁ Q₂ / r₁₂²

So, if we make Q1 = Q1/5, the net effect will be to reduce the force in the same factor, i.e. F₁₂ = 25 N / 5 = 5 N

b) If we reduce the distance, from r, to r/3, as the factor is squared, the net effect will be to increase the force in a factor equal to 3² = 9.

So, we will have F₁₂ = 9. 25 N = 225 N

c) If we make Q2 = 5Q2, the force would be increased 5 times, but if at the same , we increase the distance 5 times, as the factor is squared, the net factor will be 5/25 = 1/5, so we will have:

F₁₂ = 25 N .1/5 = 5 N
