Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Non-metals are the substances that are deficient in electrons as compared to metals.

For example, carbon, selenium, bromine, chlorine, phosphorous etc are all non-metals.

At room temperature, hydrogen, helium, fluorine, chlorine etc all exist as gases. Whereas some non-metals exist as solid like carbon, phosphorous, sulfur, selenium, iodine etc.

But bromine exist as a liquid.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement Most nonmetals are gaseous, but some are liquid or solid, is true.

Wave power can be regarded as a reliable source of energy because the ocean currents are always moving.

<h3>What can be the challenges of wave power?</h3>

Wave power is a device that can be used to convert the mechanical energy of the ocean waves into electrical energy based on the principle of conservation of energy.

The major challenges that face the use of wave power in electricity generation is the unreliability of the waves which leads to uncertainty in the quantity of power generated Also, the wave direction and direction of ocean currents all limit the amount of power generated by this method. However, in spite of challenges, it can be regarded as a reliable source of energy because the ocean currents are always moving.

g Estimate the number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second. The power output from the Sun is 4 × 1026 W and assume that th
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The value is N  =  1.107 *10^{45 }  \ photons    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  power output from the sun is  P_o =  4 * 10^{26} \  W

   The average wavelength of each photon is  \lambda  = 550 \  nm  =  550 *10^{-9} \  m

Generally the energy of each photon emitted is mathematically represented as

        E_c =  \frac{h * c  }{ \lambda }

Here  h is the Plank's constant with value  h  =  6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s

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

So

       E_c =  \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34}  * 3.0 *10^{8}  }{ 550 *10^{-9} }          

=>   E_c =  3.614 *10^{-19} \  J          

Generally the  number of photons emitted by the Sun in a second is mathematically represented as

         N  =  \frac{P }{E_c}

=>      N  =  \frac{4 * 10^{26} }{3.614 *10^{-19}}

=>      N  =  1.107 *10^{45 }  \ photons
