Answer:

This question is vague because it doesn't specify whether 20° is the angle of incidence or the angle the ray makes with the surface

But If we consider 20° as the angle of Incidence...

The Angle of Reflection = 20° also

Because

From The Law of Reflection

Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection

Answer:

As the "plates" on each side of ridges in the seafloor are pulled away, lava comes up from the middle, hardens and "records" the current magnetic field.

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres

Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

$\text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}$

Similarly,

$\text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}$

We know the below formulas,

$\text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}$

$\text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l$

$\frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l$

The $\pi$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$\frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l$

The $10^{-6}$ value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

$l=4 \times 9=36 m$
