Answer:

The correct choice is

"reflects a small percentage of the sunlight that strikes it"

The balls in the image above have different masses and speeds. Rank them in terms of momentum, from least to greatest.
N76 [4]
The momentum of an object is equivalent to the product of the object's mass and velocity. Computing the momentum for each ball:
A- 15 * 0.7 = 10.5
B- 5.5 * 1.2 = 6.6
C- 5.0 * 2.5 = 12.5
D- 1.5 * 5.0 = 7.5

Therefore, ball C has the greatest momentum.

Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum is divided into seven ranges of wavelengths and is the part visible to the human eye
oksano4ka [1.4K]
In one of the most amazing coincidences in all of science,
the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that's visible to the
human eye is called "visible light".

Visible light is not 'divided' into anything. We mention the names
to seven of the colors in visible light. But all of the thousands of
OTHER colors that we can see are in there too, even though we
don't bother to list their names when we buzz through the rainbow
in the third grade.
