Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

A lagoon is defined as a shallow water body that is often separated by a larger water body such as oceans by a coral reef or sandbars. This lagoons are of 2 types, namely the coastal lagoon and the atoll lagoon.

(1) Coastal lagoon-This type of lagoons are protected by sandbars or barrier islands. They usually form along coastal areas with small range in the tidal. They are shallow type of basin that are present near the gradually eroding shore.

(2)Atoll lagoon- They are almost similar to the coastal lagoons, but they are mostly protected by the coral reefs. These are commonly found in the oceans of tropical regions.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

AVprozaik [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}</h2>

Explanation:

A meteoroid is in a circular orbit 600 km above the surface of a distant planet.

Mass of the planet = mass of earth = 5.972 x 10^{24} Kg

Radius of the earth = 90% of earth radius = 90% 6370 = 5733 km

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = ?

By formula, g = \frac{GM}{r^{2} }

where g is the acceleration due to the gravity

G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}

M is the mass of the planet

r is the radius of the planet

Substituting the values, we get

g =  \frac{(6.67 * 10^{-11}) (5.972 * 10^{24})  }{5733^{2} }

g = 12.12 m/s^{2}

The acceleration of the meteoroid due to the gravitational force exerted by the planet = 12.12 m/s^{2}

How do you think electricity was discovered
sasho [114]
Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that particular chemical reactions could produce electricity, and in 1800 he constructed the voltaic pile (an early electric battery) that produced a steady electric current, and so he was the first person to create a steady flow of electrical charge.

The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of 1% per day. A s
Bumek [7]

Answer:

2,38kg

Explanation:

Mass in function of time can be found by the formula: m_{(t)} =m_{0} e^{-kt}, where m_{0} is the initial mass, t is the time and k is a constant.

Given that a sample decay 1% per day, that means that after first day you have 99% of mass.

m_{(1)} =m_{0} e^{-k(1)}, but m_{(1)}=\frac{99m_{0} }{100}, so we have \frac{99m_{0} }{100}=m_{0}e^{-k}, then k=-ln(\frac{99}{100})=0.01

Now using k found we must to find m_{(5)}.

m_{(5)}=m_{0}e^{-(0.01)5}=2.5kge^{-0.05} =2.5x0.951=2.38kg

Parallel light waves hit the surface of a still lake and reflect in the same direction. Which interaction of light and matter do
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Regular reflection

Explanation:

- Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a light wave hits the interface between two different mediums and it bounces off back into the same medium. The angle of reflection (measured between the reflected ray and the perpendicular to the interface) is equal to the angle of incidence (measured between the incident ray and the perpendicular to the interface).

There are two different types of reflection:

- Regular reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is smooth (such as in the case of the still lake), so all the parallel light waves (which have same angle of incidence) are reflected exactly with the same angle of reflection (so, they come out all with same direction)

- Diffuse reflection: this occurs when the interface between the two mediums is not smooth, so each light ray is reflected with a different angle because it hits the interface with a different angle of incidence.

Therefore, in the case of the still lake, the correct answer is regular reflection.
