Answer:

Explanation:

According to the property of a conductor, the entire charge will reside on the outer surface of the conductor, there is no charge on the inner side of the conductor. As the uncharged metal ball touches the inner surface of the conductor, it does not attain any charge as the inner side of the conductor has no charge.

So option (c) is correct.

When reaching a boundary between two media (1 and 2), an incident ray is partially reflected and partially refracted. The ray is
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The angle of incidence when the reflected ray is perpendicular to the incident ray = 45°

Explanation:

According to Snell's Law,

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

When the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is 90°, the angle of incidence is θ₁ and the angle of reflection, θ₂ = 90° - θ₁ and the index of refraction in the Snell's Law for both media would be the same, n₁ = n₂ = n

n sin θ₁ = n sin (90° - θ₁)

Note that from trigonometric relations,

Sin (90° - θ₁) = cos θ₁

n sin θ₁ = n cos θ₁

(sin θ₁)/(cos θ₁) = 1

tan θ₁ = 1

θ₁ = arctan 1 = 45°

Hope this Helps!!!

Reptile [31]

Answer:

v (speed) = S / t = 4 * 400 m / (6 * 60 sec) = 4.4 m/s

The average velocity  is zero because there is no net vector displacement.

Although planets orbit the Sun in ellipses, all the planetary orbits are fairly close to circular and not very eccentric.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Sun rotates in this same, right-hand-rule direction. All planetary orbits lie in nearly the same plane. All planetary orbits are nearly circular (eccentricity near zero).
