Correct answer: a) True.
In fact, the soil at the poles consists mainly of snow. Snow has an albedo of 90%: albedo is the fraction of light (and so, of energy) that is reflected back to the space. This means that at the poles, about 90% of the light is reflected back to the space, while only 10% is absorbed.
The velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is 14 m/s.
<h3>
Velocity of the boy at the bottom of the slide</h3>
The velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is calculated from the principle of conservation of energy.
K.E = P.E
¹/₂mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
where;
- h is height of the boy
- g is acceleration due to gravity
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 10)
v = 14 m/s.
Thus, the velocity of the boy when he hits the water at the bottom of the slide is 14 m/s.

Ultraviolet radiation from the sun is controlled by the ozone but if it infiltrates into the atmosphere it becomes a hazard. The uv reaches our eyes and darkens the retina and blurs vision. The fovea becomes insensitive and the cells dormant. This causes gradual blindness.
