What are examples of particulates?

Examples of particulates include dust, smoke, soot, and pollen. Particulates are small solid particles or liquid droplets suspended in the air. They can come from a variety of sources such as vehicle emissions, industrial processes, and natural events like forest fires.


Why are small particulates in the atmosphere dangerous to human beings?

Small particulates in the atmosphere, like soot and dust, can be dangerous to human health because they can be inhaled deep into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream, leading to respiratory and cardiovascular problems. Chronic exposure to these particulates has been linked to conditions such as asthma, lung cancer, heart attacks, and strokes.


What does not affect the amount of heat a body can store?

The type of material does not affect the amount of heat a body can store. The factors that affect the amount of heat a body can store include its mass, specific heat capacity, and temperature difference.


What has an affect on the amount of heat a body will store?

The material of the body and its specific heat capacity, its mass, the temperature difference between the body and its surroundings, and the duration of heat exposure all affect the amount of heat a body will store.


Which one of the following does not affect the electrical resistance of a body?

The color of the body does not affect its electrical resistance. Electrical resistance is determined by factors such as the material, dimensions, and temperature of the body. The color of an object is related to its appearance and does not have a direct impact on its electrical properties.

How do particulates cause global warming?

Particulates, like black carbon and sulfate aerosols, can contribute to global warming by absorbing sunlight and trapping heat in the atmosphere. When they settle on snow and ice, they can reduce their reflective properties, causing them to absorb more heat and melt faster. Additionally, particulates can indirectly affect climate by influencing cloud formation and precipitation patterns.

How do you think particulates in the atmosphere might affect the Earth's temperature?

Particulates in the atmosphere reflect solar radiation and prevent it reaching the earth. This has the effect of lowering the temperature of the earth. This happened seriously in the mid-20th Century, but was stopped by Clean Air Acts round the world. It also happens for a few days after a volcanic eruption.

What is the chemical formula for particulates?

There isn't a specific chemical formula for particulates as they can consist of various substances such as dust, smoke, pollen, and other solid particles suspended in the air. The composition of particulates can vary depending on the source and location.


Hoe does smoking affect the cillia that line your windpipe?

It burns the cilia in your lungs. It kills them, basically. That means that you can't feel particulates coming into your lungs which could lead to bronchitis or something.
