Question 1
What do you mean by greenhouse effect?
Answer 1
Greenhouse effect is the process of warming of planet’s surface and its lower atmosphere by absorbtion of infrared radiations of longer wavelength emitted out from the surface of planet.
Question 2
Name three green house gases.
Answer 2
Carbon-di-oxide, water vapour and methane are greenhouse gases.
Question 3
Which of the following solar radiations pass through the atmosphere of Earth ?
X -rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light rays or infrared radiation.
Answer 3
Visible light rays and short infrared radiation pass through the atmosphere of earth.
Question 4
What results in the increase of carbon dioxide contents of earth’s atmosphere?
Answer 4
The concentration of carbon-di-oxide content’s of earth’s atmosphere has increased due to industrial growth, combustion of fossil fuels and clearing of forests.
Question 5
Name the radiations which are absorbed by the green house gases.
Answer 5
Infrared radiations of long wavelength are absorbed by the green house gases.
Question 6 Exercise-6D Heat and Energy Concise
What would have been the temperature of earth’s atmosphere in absence of green house gases in it?
Answer 6
In absence of green house gases, the average temperature on earth would be -18°C.
Question 7
State the effect of green house gases on the temperature of earth’s atmosphere.
Answer 7
The greenhouses gases have an average warming effect on Earth’s surface of about 15.5 (or 60 °F ).
Question 8
What do you mean by global warming?
Answer 8
Global warming means the increase in average effective temperature near the earth’s surface due to an increase in the amount of green house gases in its atmosphere.
Question 9
What causes the rise in atmospheric temperature?
Answer 9
With activities industrialization, deforestation, excess burning of fossil fuel, the concentration of green house gases has increased on earth’s atmosphere. This increase in the amount of greenhouse gases present in atmosphere has caused the rise in atmospheric temperature.
Question 10
State the cause of increase of green house effect.
Answer 10
The increase in green house gases due to activities like industrialization, deforestation, natural gas exploration, burning of biomass, natural gas exploration, more use of gadgets like refrigerators has caused the increase of green house effect.
Question 11
What will be the effect of global warming at the poles?
Answer 11
At the poles, due to increase in temperature, the snow and ice will melt which will cause flood in coastal countries. The icebergs of dark land and oceans will melt, so the dark land and oceans will become uncovered and will absorb more heat radiations coming from sun, increasing the green house effect further.
Question 12
State the effect of global warming in coastal regions.
Answer 12
Due to global warming, the snow and ice around the poles will melt and cause flood in coastal countries.
Question 13
How will global warming affect the sea level?
Answer 13
Due to melting of polar ice and glaciers, there will be rise in sea level on coastal wet lands. It would raise worldwise sea level, thereby, many big cities in the coastal areas will be covered by sea water.
Question 14
How will global warming affect the agriculture?
Answer 14
Global warming will cause drastic changes in the patterns of wind, rainfall etc. Thus it will result in low agricultural yield.
Question 15 Exercise-6D Heat and Energy Concise
State two ways to minimize the impact of global warming.
Answer 15
The two way minimize the global warming are:-
- Use of renewable sources of energy to generate electricity in place of generating electricity from the fossil fuels based power plants.
- Controlling population through family planning, welfare reforms and the empowerment of women.
Question 16
What is carbon tax? Who will pay it?
Answer 16
The tax calculated on the basis of carbon emission from industry, number of employee hour and turnover of the factory is called carbon tax.
This tax shall be paid by industries. This will encourage the industries to use the energy efficient techniques.

(a) -18°C
(b) 33°C
(c) 0°C
(d) 15°C
Answer 3
Without green house effect, the average temperature of Earth’s surface would have been -18 °C.
Question 4
The global warming has resulted in:
(a) the increase in yield of crops
(b) the decrease in sea levels
(c) the decrease in human deaths
(d) the decrease in sea levels
Answer 4
The global warming has resulted in the increase in sea levels.
e increase in sea levels.
