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

Radiation

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Green house effect refers to the exchange of incoming and outgoing solar radiation that warms the earth. </u></em>
  • Solar energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere and warms the Earth. About 30% of this energy is reflected back into space.
  • <em><u>Green house gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapor in the atmosphere trap the remaining energy and warms up the planet's surface above the normal temperature which result to a significant change in climate. </u></em>
  • The solar radiation is absorbed by components of the earth surface, that is the oceans, land and atmosphere. As they heat up and heat is released to the atmosphere and into the space.

MakcuM [25]

Explanation:

Using p1p1=p2p2

(75-73.5)x8=(X - 74)X 6

1.5 X 8= 6x-444

12=6x-444 (add 12)

6x=456 (divide by 6)

X= 76cm

Therefore the answer for the barometric height is 76cm

The normal is a line perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The normal line is defined as the line which is perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point where the incident ray meet with the reflecting surface.

The angle of incident is defined as the angle which is subtended by the incident ray with respect to the normal ray by consider the normal ray as the base line and angle is measured from the point where incident ray is incident on the reflecting surface of the mirror.

Similarly reflecting ray can be defined as the ray which is reflected after the incident of a ray and the angle subtended by the reflecting ray is measure with respect to normal ray by considering normal ray as a base line.

Therefore, the normal ray is the perpendicular line to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence.
