Energy In vs. Out
What is the Energy In vs. Going Out in a Perfect System?
It would be Equal =
Name the Greenhouse gases?
CO2, CH4(Methane), H2O water vapor.
The long term pattern that is demonstrated when evaluating data is called?
A Trend
The most likely cause of increased CH4 levels in the Atmosphere?
Increased Livestock (Burps and Farts)
This solution would help decrease one greenhouse gas but would be a missed steak?!?!
Decrease Livestock Eat less Beef
More E going IN than E going out the Temperature would be?
Increasing
These 2 gases are exchanged differently by animals than plants. Helping keep a healthy balance in the Atmosphere
CO2 and O2
A molecule made up of Carbon and Hydrogen atoms is?
Methane
The use of Fossil Fuels in this process is responsible for an increase in atmospheric CO2 levels.
Combustion
The problem with electric cars is no CO2 is produced in using a EV but CO2 is used when.....?
Charging an Electric Car
Greenhouse Gases affect the system by causing what change to the Energy flow
More coming In than going Out.
What would happen to the earth's Temperature if the Nitrogen Dioxide NO2 levels increased?
IT would not Change.
The mixture of gases surrounding a Planet is called?
Atmosphere
This process helps eliminate CO2 in the air, makes food and produces O2 as a result?
Photosynthesis
Using this type of Renewable Energy would help decrease CO2 production.
Solar Energy
CO2 and CH4(Methane) cause the temperature to go up be cause more E is going?
To the Surface
Name the 6 gases in the Atmosphere we discussed in class.?
CO2, CH4(Methane), H2O, O2, SO2 and NO2
Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Water vapor, Oxygen, Nitrogen dioxide, Sulpher Dioxide
The ability to make things move or change is called?
Energy
Man is responsible for creating a drastic increase in this gas in the atmosphere?
CO2
Decreasing Combustion is a difficult problem because it is used in these at least 3 Important processes.
Transportation, Energy Production, Manufacturing,
If the Greenhouse gases would be removed from the Atmosphere what would happen to the Ice on Earth?
It would Increase
Name 2 ways to affect CO2 levels in the Atmosphere.
Reforestation, Decreased Combustion, CO2 recapture, Increased Solar Energy
Things people do to affect the Earth's systems?
Human Activities
What 2 factors cause some Scientist doubt that the earth's temperature was increasing?
Fluctuation in temperature data and the debunking of the theory of the Ozone layer hole as a primary cause.
This Climate solution is very Expensive and the affects of storing gas in this manner has not been well researched?
Carbon Recapture
