The sun makes so much energy that we are able to see the sun's brightness and feel its heat. Hydrogen fusion occurs in the Sun's core and the gas is heated by the energy that is released above the core. Eventually, the gas becomes less dense and the heat from below turns the gas buoyant

Answer:

Sun is bright because it is closer to the earth and the radiation that  reaches the earth's surface gives out the heat.

Explanation:

The thermonuclear fusion reactions are responsible for the heat and light emitted by any star.

As a result of the fusion reactions that occur in its core, sun's core is very very hot. This heat is radiated outward and after passing through several zones of the sun itself, the surface temperature of the Sun cools to about about 6000 K.

Sun radiates electromagnetic radiation that can travel through space and then penetrate the earth's atmosphere. Ozone layer which is present in the ozonosphere of the earth's atmosphere filters the UV rays coming from the sun. The radiation in the form of heat and light is absorbed by the particles of air in the earth's atmosphere, there by heating the surface.

How is newton's first law used in basketball?
arlik [135]

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.

A two-slit Fraunhofer interference-diffraction pattern is observed with light of wavelength 672 nm. The slits have widths of 0.0
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

In case of diffraction , angular width of central maxima =2 λ/d

λ is wave length of light and d is slit width

In case of interference , angular width of each fringe

= λ /D

D is distance between two slits

No of interference fringe in central diffraction fringe

=2 λ/d x D/λ = 2 x D /d = 2 x .24/.03 = 16.

Identify evidence that supports the theories of continental drift and plate tectonics. put responses in the correct input to ans
GenaCL600 [577]

The evidence that supports continental drift and plate tectonics includes different fossils, the same rocks and the shapes of continents that fit together.

<h3>What is continental drift?</h3>

Continental drift is a theory that states continents once were part of one big landmass known as Pangea.

Nowadays, the theory of continental drift proposed by Alfred Wegener has been replaced by plate tectonics.

In conclusion, the evidence that supports continental drift and plate tectonics includes fossils, the same rocks and the shapes of continents that fit together.
