The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?
focal point |
|
angle of incidence |
|
refractive index |
|
90° |
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.
What part of the nervous system controls simple reflexes?

|
autonomic |
|
cerebrum |
|
medulla |

Absolute zero is which of the following?
the coldest temperature possible in the universe |
|
the freezing point of oxygen |
|
0°C |
|
the freezing point of hydrogen |
In contrast to the Celsius scale (measured in degrees centigrade) that fixes 0° at the freezing point of water and the Fahrenheit scale that uses 32°, the Kelvin scale fixes 0 at absolute zero (-273°C) which is the lowest temperature possible in the universe.
