Objects absorb and reflect light differently depending on their physical characteristics, such as their shape or composition. Thanks to the reflection we can see the objects. Reflection can be defined as the change of direction of a wave, which, when in contact with the separation surface between two changing means, returns to the point where it originated. When the light illuminates the object, such as the tree, the rays of light will disperse in all directions allowing observation.
The correct answer is A. From every point on the surface of the tree, and in every direction
Answer:
Speed is a scalar quantity that refers to "how fast an object is moving." Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. A fast-moving object has a high speed and covers a relatively large distance in a short amount of time.
Explanation:
The formula for speed is speed = distance ÷ time. To work out what the units are for speed, you need to know the units for distance and time.
"60 kg" is not a weight. It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.
The weight of the object is
(mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .
On the surface of the Earth,
Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 588 Newtons.
Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to 5R from the center, the gravity out there is
(1R/5R)² = (1/5)² = 1/25 = 0.04 of its value on the surface.
The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.
(0.04) x (588 Newtons) = 23.52 Newtons.
Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink.
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.
Answer:
Light is one of nature's ways of moving energy from one place to another.
Explanation:
It has no substance, or mass. How does light travel? Light behaves like a traveling wave, something like waves in a string or on the surface of water.
