Which student correctly identifies a similarity and a difference between vector quantities and scalar quantities?

Physics

As per the question there are two physical quantities i.e scalar quantity and vector quantity.

A scalar is a physical quantity which requires only magnitude.It does not require any direction for it's complete specification.For instance we may take distance travelled,speed etc.


Unlike a scalar quantity,a vector quantity requires both magnitude as well as direction for it's complete specifications.For instance we may take displacement which is the shortest distance between two points,the velocity which is the speed in a given direction.


Hence a vector and scalar is differentiated by direction.

As per the question,the correct option will be the third option i.e C.

Carlita is right.As per her, both vector and scalar have magnitude,but only vectors have direction which is also true.

RADIATION

There are three types of heat transfer or heat propagation; conduction, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is the process by which heat projects externally however, depending on the temperature and pressure. Also called the movement of heat from a low temperatured state which increases as heat progresses.
Conduction is the heat transfer by contact, immediate contact.
Convection is the transfer of heat through air and water.
<span>Radiation is the transfer of heat regardless of the presence of atoms or particles.<span>

A laser beam strikes a plane's surface with an angle of52.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray will be 104°

Explanation:

We have given angle of incidence = 52 °

From law of reflection angle of incidence will be equal to angle of reflection

So angle of reflection will be also 52°

We have to find the angle between incident ray and reflected ray

As the incidence angle and reflected angle both is from normal of the surface and opposite to each other

So angle between incident ray and reflected ray will be 52°+52° = 104°
