Answer:
Incident ray
Explanation:
"To describe the reflection of light, we will use the following terminology. The incoming light ray is called the incident ray. The light ray moving away from the surface is the reflected ray. The most important characteristic of these rays is their angles in relation to the reflecting surface."

As the wave length increases the energy of the wave decreases as the equation that relates the c=λυ λ is the wave length and υ is the frequency (which is directly proportional to the energy).
In the wave length spectrum, x-ray has a shorter wave length, meaning that
x-ray has a higher energy than ultraviolet waves.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
680 J
Explanation:
Mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy
ME = PE + KE
ME = mgh + ½ mv²
ME = (77.1 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (0.90 m) + ½ (77.1 kg) (0 m/s)²
ME = 680 J
We want to know what does the fact that Mercury has no atmosphere tell us. Since Mercury has no atmosphere it cant reflect a lot of sunlight that is hitting its surface. Its constantly being hit by solar wind. So Mercury reflects a small percentage of the sunlight that strikes it.
