HELP ME 45 PTS!!!!! Compare and contrast how light waves are

Geography
1 answer:
pickupchik [31]3 years ago

Explanation:

When light shines on an object, it is reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through the object, depending on the object's material and the frequency (color) of the light. ... However, because light can travel through space, it cannot be a matter wave, like sound or water waves.

When parallel light rays hit a concave mirror they reflect inwards towards a focal point. Each individual ray is still reflecting at the same angle as it hits that small part of the surface. ... Light rays travel towards the mirror in a straight line and are reflected inwards to meet at a point called the focal point. Opaque objects block light from traveling through them. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to thermal energy.

Also, when light is reflected from a mirror, it bounces off at the same angle in the opposite direction from which it hit. ... If the surface is concave, or curved inward, a group of light rays from a distant source is reflected back toward a single location known as the focal point

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

PERMAFROST LAYER

Explanation:

Permafrost layer is usually defined as the thick layer of soil that is mixed with the broken rock fragments and other sediments, and are covered by ice throughout the year. These are mostly found in the higher latitudinal region, where the thickness of these layers ranges from a few meters to tens and hundreds of meters. The melting of these layers in these regions leads to an increase in the sea level.

For example, the permafrost layers of tundra and subarctic zones in Russia and its nearby areas, which have a thickness of about three meters.

Can you think of any reason(s) why China allows only one child per couple? Should government intervene in population growth?
USPshnik [31]
Chine did the only one child policy to reduce overpopulation. I think the second question is just a matter of opinion I'm not sure. In my opinion, I think that the government should intervene in population growth because most of the world's problems link all to overpopulation.
