D. global warming.
A: D. global warming
How does the Greenhouse effect and atmospheric radiation relate to each other? I am still trying to understand the "chemistry" aspect of the greenhouse effect, not just the simple explanation. My teacher says that the GHG effect isn't really
Can you tear an 8-foot hole in the side of a 747 jet and have it fly not only safely but in a stable way? This isn't a terrorism-related quiz--it's a real problem that NASA tackled with its flying telescope project. The answer is a big "yes."
The telescope is a 17-ton monster called the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) designed to make high-resolution infrared imagery of space objects, and its installation in a modified 30-year-old 747 is the culmination of a project that began over 14 years ago. The telescope was specifically engineered to fit into a jumbo, which was the largest aircraft flying at the project's inception, and it's used to make observations when the plane is flying at 40,000 feet, lower than space-based telescopes but above some of the lower-atmospheric effects of the impact ground-based telescope installations.
This is why SOFIA is a neat solution, it turns out. At ground level, IR telescopes suffer from absorption of IR wavelengths by atmospheric water, and while this problem isn't suffered if you shoot a satellite into space--you can't adjust a space-based telescope easily (or at all, possibly for decades when the Shuttle is grounded) and flying a giant telescope into orbit is both tricky and expensive.
As we know that gas (Exhaust gas) is much compressible than the liquid (Petrol and diesel), with so much combustion engines in our world that use petrol and diesel, this huge physical volume (Petrol and diesel) lost every days in our space, will it cause
