refractive index

90°


Solution

The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.

4

Which of Earth's layers has weather?

64% Answer Correctly

troposphere

stratosphere

mesosphere

thermosphere


Solution

The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.

71% Answer Correctly

boundary

fog

front

thunderstorm


Solution

An air mass is a large body of air that has similar moisture (density) and temperature characteristics. A front is a transition zone between two air masses.
