Thermal emissions by solid bodies can be analyzed to provide information on the temperature at a few wavelengths below the surfa

ce. Observations of the night hemisphere of Mercury longward of ∼10 cm yield temperatures close to the diurnal equilibrium temperature. As the radiation is obviously able to escape directly from the regions being observed, why does it not get much colder than this during the long mercurian night?

Answer:T= 2898*10^-5K

Explanation:

wavelength = 10cm

Using Wien's Law

maximum wavelength= 2898*10^-6/temp(K)

thus T=2898*10^-6/10*10^-2

T= 2898*10^-5K

this is the maximum observed temperature of 10 cm wavelength black body

since this temperature is close to the diurnal equilibrium temperature, that's why it not get much colder.

South of London is an example of absolute location.<br><br> Question 1 options:<br> True<br> False
miss Akunina [59]

<u>Answer:</u>

The statement 'south of London' is an example of 'absolute location' is false.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • A location can be said to be an absolute location when it is defined with exact longitudinal and latitudinal coordinates.
  • For instance, the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London can be said to be an example of 'absolute location' because its location can be pinpointed with the help of longitudes and latitudes.
  • When we say south of London, it can be the entire area that falls south of London, which cannot be an example of an 'absolute location'.

Explanation:

A drainage basin is an area where water from precipitation such as rainwater collects before draining into a water body such as a river.

A delta is created where the highest quantity of sediments are deposited at the mouth of a river.

A river's discharge is the quantity of water flowing through a channel in a river.

The headwaters of a river are the source of water of a river, and are usually the farthest point from where it joins/empties into another water body.

Meanders are common feature of A stream with a low to moderate gradient.

A river with a well-developed floodplain has a flat low-lying channel and floods when there is a high quantity of water flowing through the river.
