Ice is mightier than steel yet cowers from the sun.

Explanation

Steel is the hardest metal used in building heavy vessels for sailing or other kind of transportation.

But as it is a metal, it has freezing point so the steel may get frozen leading to failure in the working of ships at low temperatures.

Even vessels like ships, submarines can break if collided with ice blocks in the northern pole region.

So ice has the capacity to weaken the steel but it will melt easily in sunlight.

So ice is the one which mightier than steel yet cowers from the sun.

Ice is only thing which is mightier than steel because it can breaks things which are made up of steels like ships but in the sunlight ice melts away it means it cowards away.

The gravitation field strength of Planet X is 10 times that of Earth's, as the object weight has increased 10 times. This is only possible if the planet is more massive or more dense (smaller diameter).

Therefore, the answer is C.

The reflective quality of a surface is known as its

<h2>Answer: Albedo </h2>

The <u>albedo</u> is an amount that expresses the percentage of radiation a surface reflects with respect to the incident radiation.

In other words:

This amount allows us to know the level of radiation that <u>reflects</u> a surface compared to the total <u>radiation it receives</u>.

According to this, light surfaces such as snow covered ground or white sand will have a higher albedo than dark surfaces such as carbon covered ground. It is also important to note, the albedo will be higher on glossy surfaces than on matte surfaces.

It should be noted that the albedo of the Earth is on average about $37\%$ , which means that part of the radiation received by the Sun is absorbed and another part reflected back to space.
