-- pass the light through a lens
The path of the light is bent (refracted) to a new direction.
-- bounce the light off a shiny surface
The light is sent back (reflected) in the direction from which it arrived.
-- pass the light through a prism
The light is spread out according to the different wavelengths
that may be in it.
-- put something black in the light's path
The light is completely absorbed and is never seen again.
-- turn the light off
The source stops emitting light.
-- throw a towel over the lamp
The light is absorbed in the towel, and not seen outside of it.
It is because the equator is closer to the sun and because the sun's rays hit the surface of the Earth at a higher angle at the equator. The poles are colder because they don't get direct sunlight. The sun is always low on the horizon.
Answer:
<em>The range is 35.35 m</em>
Explanation:
<u>Projectile Motion</u>
It's the type of motion that experiences an object projected near the Earth's surface and moves along a curved path exclusively under the action of gravity.
Being vo the initial speed of the object, θ the initial launch angle, and
the acceleration of gravity, then the maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object (also called Range) is:

The projectile was launched at an angle of θ=30° with an initial speed vo=20 m/s. Calculating the range:



The range is 35.35 m
