studied in the chapter 13 of the gravitation about the solar system and how the astronauts use the conditions of the gravitation on the earth to move around in the outer space. The formula is given by This equation is helpful in determine the gravity and mass of earth, radius and many other factors and we know about the m e = 5.98*10 24 kg which we have studied in our class of physics. The He has also explained about the Deployment where they have deployed the satellites February 2014 and there

Earlier research suggested that the ice sheets might grow under climate change due to the increased precipitation from warmer air holding more moisture. As more recent studies suggest, the actual amount of increased precipitation form global warming is countered by the acceleration of ice-flow into the ocean. In all actually
orbiting the earth and other technological equipment enables scientists to see and collect various information about our planets climate. Scientists have studied this collected information and has revealed the many changes of our planet and how these changes are effecting our climate, a few of them are: • Ice cores drawn from Greenland, Antarctica show that our climate does respond to changes in greenhouse gas levels. It also shows that changes happen quickly (years). • Sea level rise: As of January
There is no doubt that climate change is happening, and it is happening fast. The average surface temperature of the planet has risen about 2.0 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 19th century. This is due by an increase in human-made emissions like carbon dioxide, which are thrown into the atmosphere. The past thirty-five years have been crucial for the planet since they were the warmest years on record. Not only has the planet witnessed a global temperature rise, but the oceans have absorbed much
Global climate change is the term used to describe altered global weather patterns, including a worldwide increase in temperature, due largely to rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide. (OpenStack, 2013). It is the biggest environmental challenge facing us today as we strive to control its damaging effects on the biome system. While some groups blame human behavior for this devastating problem the effects of nature also have its fair share. The beginning of climate change science can be traced
Climate change, a global issue and the number One major problem that is having serious impacts and consequences on living species and our precious home, the Earth. On this topic, the majority of the public have recognized and accepted the fact that climate change is an undeniable truth that should be address as soon as possible and to take immediate actions to resolve the problem. There are already environmental policies established on climate change, such as voluntary and subsidies options, carbon
Climate change is one of the most prominent problems facing mankind in the 21st century and remote sensing through space based observation has come to play a more and more important role in the study of climate change since its inception (Cracknell and Varatsos, 2011; Navalgund and Singh, 2011.). Cracknell and Varatsos (2011) says there are two reasons as to why remote sensing plays a vital role in the study of climate change, namely the huge coverage the data provides in terms area which allows
located towards the Southern Pole and covered, completely, in ice. The ice has come and gone throughout history as the result of massive changes in climate and now, something is happening to it. The ice is depleting, though not as fast as the Arctic Ocean, and not quite the way you would think. And if we accept that it is depleting, what happens as the climate continues to change? What happens to our coastal cities when the sea levels rise? What happens to weather patterns in the Southern Oceans? Before
warming of the oceans, which causes expansion. Another cause is due to the increase of melting Arctic sea ice and retreating glaciers, which has to do with the rise in temperatures in historically colder regions. Data from NASA's gravity recovery and climate experiment show Greenland lost 150 to 250 cubic kilometers of ice per year between 2002 and 2006, while Antarctica lost about 152 cubic kilometers of ice between 2002 and 2005. This increase in warmer temperatures around the world has caused
literally heating up, so is the pressing, controversial topic of climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) publishes a climate change report every 5 years; the 2014 report is the most alarming report thus far. The long report is the collaborative work of more than 800 climate scientists and governmental representatives. The report is shocking, and it should be. The IPCC concludes that human activity is the cause of climate change, just as smoking causes cancer. The increasing living
