Question: Next, click the Glass Layers tab in the black bar at the bottom of the simulation. Use the arrow in the Options field on the right to add one or more glass panes. This simulation shows how different photons would react to a layer of glass surrounding Earth, much like an actual greenhouse. How do the sunlight photons and infrared photons react differently to the glass layer(s)?

Edmentum answer:  The visible light photons pass through the glass unaffected. However, the infrared photons that Earth reflects often change direction or are absorbed back into Earth’s surface when they interact with the glass.

Answer: During the day, a typical greenhouse will trap Infrared photons from the sun, which allows the plants inside to stay warm at night. ... The much needed sunlight will still come through but the extra layer of protection will keep your plants safe at night

Explanation: Hope that helps :)

A ray of yellow light has a wavelength of about 5.8×10−7 m. Will exposure to yellow light cause electrons to be emitted from ces
Dima020 [189]
Given the wavelength of the yellow light (700 nm. in this case) we can find the frequency 
<span>by dividing the speed of light c by the wavelength w, that is: f = c/w and we know that </span>
<span>c is equal to 2.998 * 10**8 meters per second. </span>
<span>So the frequency f = (2.998 * 10**8) / (7.0 * 10**-7) = 4.283 * 10**14 cycles per sec. </span>
<span>(or Hz.) Since the threshold frequency of Cs is 9.39 * 10**14 Hz, the red light doesn't </span>
<span>have a high enough frequency (or energy) to cause electron emission. </span>
<span>Hope this answers your question.</span>

Explain why the coin is able to float on top of the water in this glass.
zubka84 [21]
Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force. 
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. <span>
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.</span>
