Answer:

it is absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere

Explanation:

In the case when approx 50% only of the solar energy would be directed towards earth and it would be penetrates directly to the surface so the rest or remaining of the radiation would be either absorbed or refected by the atmosphere

So as per the given situation the above represent the answer

hence, the same is to be considered and relevant

What wavelength of light (in nm) is associated with a frequency of 8.01E15 Hz?
AlekseyPX

Answer: 37.5 nm

Explanation: speed of light c= 3.00·10^8 m/s.

I use same accuracy to speed of light as it's for frequency.

Frequency f= 8.01·10^15 1/s

Speed c = wavelength · frequency

Wavelength = c/f = 3.745·10^-8 m

In an intergalactic competition, spaceship pilots compete to see who can cover the distance between two asteroids in the short-
pogonyaev

Answer:

a)  truc is C,  b) correct result is the B

Explanation:

As the speed of the competition is very high, for the judges the speed is

           v = d / t

           v = 3 109 m / 20

           v = 1.5 108 m / s

This is half the speed of light. For these high speeds we must use the relations of special relativity.

For the time          t = to γ

For distance         L = Lo / γ

                            γ = √ (1-v2 / c2)

Own time and distance (to and Lo) corresponds to the observer who is not moving the judges in this case

Let's look for the range value

                     γ = 1 / √ (1 - (1.5 / 3) 2) = 1 / 0.866 = 1.15

The time              t = 20 1.15 = 23 s

The distance       L = 3 10 9 /1.15 = 2.60 109 m

From these results we see that time increases and the distance is shorter.

Let's review the claims

A) False. It's the opposite

B) False

C) True. It is according to the result found

D) False.

In the nuclear fusion process, we will also use the special relativity that has a relationship between energy and mass

         ΔE = c² Δm

As in the process energy is released, for the law of conservation of the mass of energy to be fulfilled, the total mass of the products, He atom, must be reduced.

Therefore the correct result is the B
