Which event is inferred by most scientists to be responsible for a climate change that has recently led to a decrease in the size of most glaciers? *
a decrease in the rate of divergence of lithospheric plates along a mid-ocean ridge O
a decrease in the amount of insolation reaching Earth's surface
an increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere
an increase in the amount of vegetative cover in the tropics
Answer:
20 km away from mid Atlantic ridge. Which event is inferred by most scientists to be responsible for a climate change that has recently led to a decrease in the size of most glaciers? An increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in earths atmosphere.Explanation:
22. Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
20°
9
Not drawn to scale
Geometry
Answer:
[tex]x = 24.7[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
See attachment
Required
Find x
To find x, we make use of tangent formula
[tex]\tan(20) = 9/x[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]x * \tan(20) = 9[/tex]
Make x the subject
[tex]x = 9/\tan(20)[/tex]
[tex]x = 9/0.3640[/tex]
[tex]x = 24.7[/tex] --- approximated

Which gas has the highest global warming
potential of all the greenhouse gases?
How much have global average
temperatures increased in the last century?
A. Fluorinated gases
B. Carbon dioxide
C. Nitrous oxide
D. Methane
A. 0.6 degrees Fahrenheit
B. 1.0 degrees Fahrenheit
C. 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit
D. 2.1 degrees Fahrenheit
Answer:
Q1 china Q2 B. Electricity and heat production
Explanation:
The largest carbon dioxide emitter is China. The majority of greenhouse gas emissions are produced during the production of electricity and heat.
Of all the greenhouse gases, fluorinated gases have the greatest potential to cause global warming. The average global temperature rose 2.1 degrees Fahrenheit during the past century. Options (D), (B), (A), and (D) are thus correct in that order.
What is the greenhouse effect?The greenhouse effect is a phenomenon in which heat from a planet's host star passes through its atmosphere and warms the surface of the planet, but greenhouse gases in the atmosphere prevent part of the heat from going directly to space, making the world warmer.
Without greenhouse gases, Earth would be below freezing, but the planet's natural greenhouse effect prevents this from happening. Additionally, when greenhouse gas concentrations rise due to human activity, more heat is trapped and the Earth gradually gets warmer.
Hence, chronologically, Options (D), (B), (A), and (D) are correct.

SOME COUNTRIES HAVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF COPPER AND SOME HAVE NO COPPER
Answer:
D. Some countries have a large amount of copper, and some have no
copper
Clearly the map shows some countries are left out.
also, interisting observation i just made is it seems as though copper is found mostly by the coast.
GOOD LUCK!
What type of tectonic plate boundary to the geographical features
Answer:
deep sea is convergent
mid ocean is divergent
frequent earthquakes transformational
Explanation:
On a cool summer morning in East Lansing, Michigan, the temperature was 7 ℃elsius and the air was saturated with RH = 100%. That afternoon, the temperature rose to 29° Celsius. If the same air mass remained in place all day (meaning the moisture content did not change throughout the day).
Required:
a. Would the relative humidity increase or decrease in the afternoon?
b. What was the relative humidity during that afternoon (rounded to the nearest percent)?
Answer:
The correct answer is -
a) The relative humidity decreases with an increase in temperature.
b) 25%
Explanation:
The dew point (Td) is the temperature at which the Relative humidity (RH) is 100%. So in the given question dew point, is (Td) is 7° C. The RH can be calculated by the formula:
[tex]RH: =100*\frac{(EXP((17.625*TD)/(243.04+TD))}{EXP((17.625*T)/(243.04+T)))}[/tex]
Putting the values of Td and T we get RH=
[tex]RH: =100*\frac{(EXP((17.625*7)/(243.04+7))}{EXP((17.625*29)/(243.04+29)))}[/tex]
= 25.02 or 25 %.
