Answer:

The Sun-Earth-Moon system happens to exhibit a striking geometric coincidence, which we examine in the first problem. PROBLEM 1. To an observer on Earth, the Sun and the Moon subtend almost the same angle in the sky. The average angle is 0.52 degrees for the Moon and 0.53 degrees for the Sun.

A bicycle is traveling north at 5.0 m/s. The mass of the wheel, 2.0 kg, is uniformly distributed along the rim, which has a radi

andreev551 [17]

Answer:2

Explanation:

Given

Velocity of bicycle is 5 m/s towards north

radius of rim $r=20 cm$

mass of rim $m=2 kg$

Angular momentum $\vec{L}=I\cdot \vec{\omega }$

$I=mr^2=2\times 0.2^2=0.08 kg-m^2$

$\omega =\frac{v}{r}=\frac{5}{0.2}=25 rad/s$

$L=0.08\times 25=2kg-m^2/s$

direction of Angular momentum will be towards west

Which of the following, if eliminated, would completely prevent the greenhouse effect from occurring on earth?

DochEvi [55]

The green house gases can be reduced up to a limit by eliminating the fossil fuels and chlorofluorocarbons. Fossil fuels are the major source of greenhouse gases.

<h3>What are green house gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases are those which are capable of intense absorption of the temperature radiated from the earth's surface and make the earth atmosphere warm up.

Greenhouse gases are the main cause of global warming. Carbon dioxide, methane oxides of nitrogen and sulphur are the green house gases.

Fossil fuels are rich in hydrocarbons and they release these gases when burned. Mainly methane and other hydrocarbon gases intensely absorbs the temperature which is radiating away from the earth and thus the heat is trapped inside.

Therefore, by eliminating fossil fuels, greenhouse effect can be prevented.
