B. Earth’s outer surface is cooler than its interior layers.

Explanation:

The option given above is showing us that the temperature in the interior of the earth is higher than the temperature in the outer layer.
There is travel of heat from the inner core of the earth to the earth's crust. Due to the loss of heat when it reaches the outer layer, there arises a temperature difference.
The heat loss is due to the absorption of heat during its transfer. Hence, option B is the answer.

The amount of energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom is a quantity called the ionization energy, Ei. This energy ca

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The value is $E_i = 1.5596 *10^{-18} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is $\lambda = 48.2 nm = 48.2 *10^{- 9 }\ m$

The velocity is $v = 2.371*10^6 \ m/s$

The mass of electron is $m_e = 9.109*10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally the energy of the incident light is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{h * c}{\lambda}$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s$

h is the Planck constant with value $h = 6.62607015 * 10^{-34 } J\cdot s$

$E = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34 }* 3.0 *10^{8}}{48.2 *10^{- 9 }}$

=> $E = 4.12 *10^{-18} \ J$

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

$E_k = \frac{1}{2} * m_e * v^2$

=> $E_k = \frac{1}{2} * 9.109*10^{-31} * (2.371*10^6 )^2$

=> $E_k = 2.56 *0^{-18} \ J$

Generally the ionization energy is mathematically represented as

$E_i = 4.12 *10^{-18} - 2.56 *0^{-18}$

=> $E_i = 1.5596 *10^{-18} \ J$

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres

Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

$\text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}$

Similarly,

$\text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}$

We know the below formulas,

$\text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}$

$\text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l$

The $\pi$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$\frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l$

The $10^{-6}$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$l=4 \times 9=36 m$

Describe one practical use of a concave mirror.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Here are some uses...

Explanation:

Uses of convex mirror:

It is used in supermarkets and stores for surveillance.

It it is used as rear view mirror in automobiles.this is due to the reason that a convex mirror provides a wider field of view than a plane or concave mirror.

Uses of concave mirror:

It is used in torches.

They are used in headlights of vehicles to send parallel rays to infinity , in shaving mirror to get an enlarged image of the face and also by dentists to see a bigger image of the tooth / teeth .
