<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

D. Longitudinal waves

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point to another. It involves the transmission of energy from a source to other points.
  • <em><u>Waves may classified as longitudinal waves or transverse waves depending on the vibration of particles relative to the wave motion.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Longitudinal waves are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion, while transverse wave are types of waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the wave motion.</u></em>
  • Longitudinal waves creates regions of compressions and rarefactions, while transverse waves creates regions of maximum displacement called crests and troughs

The percentage of incident light radiation reflected back to space is termed albedo. True or false?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:True

Explanation:

Albedo is a unit-less, non-dimensional quantity that shows how well a surface reflects solar energy. The value of albedo can vary from 0 to 1, 0 being the black and 1 refers to a white surface. Zero means Surface is a perfect absorber i.e. it absorbs all the incoming rays incidents on it. Albedo 1 means the surface is a perfect reflector.

Albedo usually applies for visible light, even though it may involve some of the infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The average albedo associated with earth surface is 30%

Suppose a photon with an energy of 1.60 eV strikes a piece of metal. If the electron that it hits loses 0.800 eV leaving the met
JulsSmile [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the change of Energy in photons and the conservation of energy.

From the theory we could consider that the energy change is subject to

\Delta E = E_0 -W_f

Where

E_0 =Initial Energy

W_f = Energy loses

Replacing we have that

\Delta E = 1.6-0.8

\Delta E = 0.8eV

Therefore the Kinetic energy of the electron once it has broken free of the metal surface is 0.8eV

The screwdriver used by an electrician has a plastic or rubber covers on them why
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Plastic or rubber are regarded as an insulator, and an insulator does not allow the flow of electric current through them, so the handles of screwdrivers as well as pliers that electricians use in repairing is been covered with plastic or rubber so that electric current is prevented to pass through it to the body of electricians to avoid been electrocuted as well as shock.
