    interaction with a perfectly reflecting obstacle. A problem is that the magnetosheath can interact directly with the neutral atmosphere through charge exchange and photonization. This removes the momentum from the flow, but the problem is also that both processes (charge exchange and photonization) add mass to the solar winds since the high altitude of the neutral atmosphere isn’t mainly hydrogen, but hot oxygen which has more mass. Venus also has a magnetotail but for a different reason. The…

    warming? a. Global warming is the increase in the temperature of the entire earth. i. As the temperature increases the atmosphere is being damaged by the increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced by the greenhouse effect. ii. The greenhouse effect is the trapping of the sun’s warmth in the planet’s lower atmosphere due to the greater clarity, or transparency, of the atmosphere to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted from the planet’s surface. iii. Many…

    so much. My view on global warming is that it exists. Everyone in the world needs to cut down on driving. Combustion engines create so much pollution that they are the number one reason for global warming. The greenhouse gases are affecting our atmosphere creating a way warmer Earth, which then has an impact on almost every living being. Another thing that we could do to help save the planet is conserve water. Fresh water is dropping lower and lower as sea levels rise higher and higher. Some…
