Physics Questions

The given statement, The heat from the sun reaches earth through Convection is FALSE.

Heat from the sun actually reaches the earth through Radiation. The process occurs through electromagnetic radiation, specifically, in which molecules are warmed when the heat reaches them, and these molecules then warm other molecules touching them, which continues until we feel the sun's heat.

For an atom to emit X-rays it should have difference in energy levels

Water has the maximum density at 4oC. So at this temperature, it sinks down to bottom and stays here. If it cools further, it will become less dense and move up. So while the upper layers can cool enough to form ice, the bottom layers remain as water at  4oC .  

Therefore, (C) is correct.

A resource is a source or supply from which a benefit is produced. Resources can be broadly classified upon their availability they are renewable and non renewable resources.

Renewable Resources :: A resource that can be replenished after use are known as Renewable resources.

Examples :: Sunlight, Water, biomass,...

Non renewable Resources :: A resource that, once used, is no longer available are known as Non renewable Resources. 

Example :: Coal, fossil fuels, natural gas,...

Sunlight is the both renewable and inexpensive resource from the given options.

National Science Day is celebrated in India on 28 February each year to mark the discovery of the Raman effect by Indian physicist Sir Chandrashekhara Venkata Raman on 28 February 1928.
