Scientists generally agree that Earth is getting warmer due to what's called the greenhouse effect. A greenhouse used for plants stays warm because sunlight and heat coming through the glass roof are mostly trapped. The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's partly trapped by the glass. Something like that happens on Earth. The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space. 17. In the first sentence, the phrase what's called the greenhouse effect presents a/ana. illustration.

c. bias.
d. cause.

Answers

A car traveling with content speed
Travels 150 km in 7200 s. What is the speed of the car?

Answers

The answer is 75 km/h. As per rules of velocity, the accurate measurement is km/h. Therefore, you have to divide 7200 by 3600 to convert it to 2 hours. 3600 is equivalent to 1 hour since 60 seconds is multiplied by 60 minutes. Then, divide 150 by 2 in order to get the actual speed of the car as it runs.
