Answer:

Tidal forces generated by the Jupiter's gravitational pull

Explanation:

The most active volcanic body in the entire solar system is the volcanoes of the Io. And the volcanoes are active due to the heat energy leading to the melting of the rocks and particles beneath.

The major source for the Io volcano, that provides the power (or the heat) is the tidal forces generated by the Jupiter's gravitational pull.

When a ray is incident upon a plane mirror as shown in the diagram, what is the angle of refraction?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

0 degrees

Explanation:

this is because when the light ray hits a surface a medium at 90 degrees then the angle of incidence = 0 , thus light doesn't bend when it enters the medium, no bending means angle of refraction is 0 degrees

hope this helps ,please mark it
