Hey there!

The answer would be B. There would be a global rise in temperatures.

If fossil fuels contribute to the addition of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere and these same gases increase because of burning fossil fuels then there would be a global rise in temperatures. Which is answer B.

Hope this helps!

A chair of mass 30.0 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor. The floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of 8
miv72 [106K]
First make sure you draw a force diagram. You should have Fn going up, Fg going down, Ff going left and another Fn going diagonally down to the right. The angle of the diagonal Fn (we'll call it Fn2) is 35° and Fn2 itself is 80N. Fn2 can be divided into two forces: Fn2x which is horizontal, and Fn2y which is vertical. Right now we only care about Fn2y.

To solve for Fn2y we use what we're given and some trig. Drawing out the actual force of Fn2 along with Fn2x and Fn2y we can see it makes a right triangle, with 80 as the hypotenuse. We want to solve for Fn2y which is the opposite side, so Sin(35)=y/80. Fn2y= 80sin35 = 45.89N

Next we solve for Fg. To do this we use Fg= 9.8 * m. Mass = 30kg, so Fg = 9.8 * 30 = 294N.

Since the chair isn't moving up or down, we can set our equation equal to zero. The net force equation in the vertical direction will be Fn + Fn2y -Fg = 0. If we plug in what we know, we get Fn + 45.89 -294 = 0. Then solve this algebraically.

Fn +45.89 -294 = 0
Fn +45.89 = 294
Fn = 248.11 N

You'll get a more accurate answer if you don't round Fn2y when solving for it, it would be something along the lines of 45.88611 etc

A 2600-m-high mountain is located on the equator. how much faster does a climber on top of the mountain move than a surfer at a
puteri [66]

The climber move 0.19 m/s  faster than surfer on the nearby beach.

Since both the person are on the earth, and moves with the constant angular velocity of earth, however there linear velocity is different.

Number of seconds in a day, t=24*60*60=86400 sec

The linear speed on the beach is calculated as

V1=\frac{2πr}{t}

Here, t is the time

Plugging the values in the above equation

V1=\frac{2π*6.4*10^6}{86400}=465.421 m/s

Velocity on the mountain is calculated as

V2=\frac{2π(r+h)}{t}

Plugging the values in the above equation

V2=\frac{2π(6.4*10^6+2600}{86400}=465.61 m/s

Therefore person on the mountain moves faster than the person on the beach by 465.61-465.421=0.19 m/s

A pizza delivery driver must make three stops on her route. She will first leave the restaurant and travel 4 km due north to the
topjm [15]
<h2>5.3 km</h2>

Explanation:

       This question involves continuous displacement in various directions. When it becomes difficult to imagine, vector analysis becomes handy.

       Let us denote each of the individual displacements by a vector. Consider the unit vectors \vec{i}\textrm{ and }\vec{j} as the unit vectors in the direction of East and North respectively.

       By simple calculations, we can derive the unit vectors \vec{j},\frac{-\vec{i}-\vec{j}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-\frac{1}{2}\vec{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\vec{j}}{2} in the directions North, 45^{o} South of West and 60^{o} North of West respectively.

       So Total displacement vector = Sum of individual displacement vectors.

       Displacement vector = 4(\vec{j})+6(\frac{-\vec{i}-\vec{j}}{2})+5(\frac{-\frac{1}{2}\vec{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\vec{j}}{2})=-4.25\vec{i}+3.165\vec{j}

       Magnitude of Displacement = |-4.25\vec{i}+3.165\vec{j}|=5.3km

∴ Total displacement = 5.3km

The equation for the change in the position of a train (measured in units of length) is given by the following expression: x = ½
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

(B) (length)/(time³)

Explanation

The equation x = ½ at² + bt³ has to be dimensionally correct. In other words the term bt³ and ½ at² must have units of change of position = length.

We solve in order to find the dimension of b:

[x]=[b]*[t]³

length=[b]*time³

[b]=length/time³
