However, the effect that global warming will cause on earth are extremely serious. There are many effects that will happen in the future if global warming continues. That includes polar ice caps melting, economic consequences, warmer waters and more hurricanes, spread of diseases and earthquake.
Term RMS refers to the mathematical Root Mean Square which is an average of peaks and valleys of a materials surface profile. Ra stands for roughness average. Ra is a average of only peaks; therefore, to get an Ra, multiple your 3.2 to 6.3 by 2 to get 6.4 to 12.4 Ra. AF Kenton.
Surface Finish Definitions: 1  Ra: Ra is the arithmetic average of the absolute values of the roughness profile ordinates. 2  Rz: Rz is the arithmetic mean value of the single roughness depths of consecutive sampling lengths. 3  Cutoff Î»c: of a profile filter determines which wavelengths belong to roughness and which ones to waviness.
