Is Greenhouse Effect is the name for the gradual raising of the temperature of the lower atmosphere of the Earth?
No. Enhanced global warming is the current slang for this situation. Man induced global warming is another term used.
Is the greenhouse effect increasing sea levels?
The natural greenhouse effect is not raising sea levels, but the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming, is. The warmer atmosphere is melting glaciers and expanding the water in the oceans, so sea levels are rising.
What does raising Cain?
Causing havoc.
How does the greenhouse affect happen?
The sun shines light onto the Earth. The Earth (and different surfaces on it- plants, oceans, blacktop, etc...) absorbs most of the energy but some is reflected back out into space. Greenhouse gases trap the reflected energy and keep it in the atmosphere, raising Earth's temperature. The more these gases are created, the more the Earth's temperature rises.
What does raising Cain mean?
Causing havoc.
Which one is more harmful to the environment global warming or greenhouse gases?
Global warming is a consequence of increased greenhouse gases. The primary human generated greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is relatively inert, and is released in such small (relative) quantities it poses no known environmental harm, outside raising earth's temperature, bleaching coral and acidifying our oceans.
How does the kettle heat?
The heating element in the base of the kettle generates heat when electricity passes through it. This heat is then transferred to the water, raising its temperature and eventually causing it to boil.
What is the energy coversions in a kettle?
In a kettle, electrical energy is converted into thermal energy by the heating element. This thermal energy then transfers to the water, raising its temperature and causing it to boil.
How may raising livestock be worsening the greenhouse effect?
Raising livestock, especially cattle, may be worsening the greenhouse effect because of the amount of methane that cattle belch out. Methane is a greenhouse that is 20 times stronger than carbon dioxide. Scientists are looking for ways to change cattle food that will reduce the amount of methane produced.
What is the ideal temperature range for raising tilapia?
The ideal temperature range for raising tilapia is between 77-86 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why does raising the temperature cause diffusion to move faster?
Raising the temperature increases the kinetic energy of particles, causing them to move faster and collide more frequently. This increased collisions lead to faster diffusion as particles are more likely to spread out into areas of lower concentration.
How can you make a liquid boil without raising its temperature?
Reduce the surrounding pressure. Lowering the pressure on a liquid reduces its boiling point, causing it to boil at a lower temperature.
