I think the correct answer is that they can determine the viscosity of the magma. The viscosity of a magma is largely controlled by the temperature, composition and the gas content. Also, silica content can define a magma type. It is said that higher silica content magma has a higher viscosity than those with lower silica content.

Light incident on a surface at an angle of 45° undergoes diffused reflection at what angle will it reflect?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Reflection is the phenomenon in which a ray of light strikes on a smooth and polished surface and then bounce back into the same medium at same angle.

There are two types of reflection.

1. Regular reflection or specular reflection

2. Irregular reflection or diffused reflection

When a parallel beam of light falls on a smooth and highly polished surface and after reflection the rays are also parallel to each other, it is called regular reflection.

When after parallel beam of light falls on a rough surface and after reflection the rays of light goes in random directions, it is called diffused reflection.

The rays reflected at 90 degree to - 90 degree in diffused refectory.

Even when shut down after a period of normal use, a large commercial nuclear reactor transfers thermal energy at the rate of 150
Sever21 [200]

Answer:2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s

Explanation:

Given

Power\left ( P\right )=150 MW

mass of core\left ( m\right )=1.60\times 10^5 kg

Average specific heat \left ( C\right )=0.3349 KJ/kg^{\circ}C

And rate of increase of temperature =\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Now

P=mc\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

150\times 10^6=1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349\times \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}

Thus \frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=[tex]\frac{1.60\times 10^5\times 0.3349}{150\times 10^6}

\frac{\mathrm{d}T}{\mathrm{d} t}=2.89\approx 2.9^{\circ}C/s

When light of wavelength 240 nm falls on a potassium surface, electrons having a maximum kinetic energy of 2.93 eV are emitted.
olchik [2.2K]

A) We want to find the work function of the potassium. Apply this equation:

E = 1243/λ - Φ

E = energy of photoelectron, λ = incoming light wavelength, Φ = potassium work function

Given values:

E = 2.93eV, λ = 240nm

Plug in and solve for Φ:

2.93 = 1243/240 - Φ

Φ = 2.25eV

B) We want to find the threshold wavelength, i.e. find the wavelength such that the energy E of the photoelectrons is 0eV. Plug in E = 0eV and Φ = 2.25eV and solve for the threshold wavelength λ:

E = 1243/λ - Φ

0 = 1243/λ - Φ

0 = 1243/λ - 2.25

λ = 552nm

C) We want to find the frequency associated with the threshold wavelength. Apply this equation:

c = fλ

c = speed of light in a vacuum, f = frequency, λ = wavelength

Given values:

c = 3×10⁸m/s, λ = 5.52×10⁻⁷m

Plug in and solve for f:

3×10⁸ = f(5.52×10⁻⁷)

f = 5.43×10¹⁴Hz
