Question

The light energy escaping from the Sun can be spread by
A. a shower of rain drops
B. a plane mirror
C. a convex lens
D. a combination of a convex lens and a concave lens

Answer 1

Hint: Electromagnetic radiation includes light energy. Photons are particles that are created as the atoms of an object heat up. The only source of energy visible to the naked eye is light, which travels in waves. Light energy is a wavelength of electric radiation that can be seen by the naked eye. It is a kinetic energy form. Waves are used to transport light energy. Light flies at a breakneck speed; in reality, nothing travels faster than light.

Complete answer:
The Sun is the primary source of light on Earth. Green plants use sunlight to produce sugars, mostly in the form of starches, which release energy into the living beings that consume them. Photosynthesis is responsible for almost half of the energy used by living organisms.

Fire has always been a significant source of illumination for humans, from primitive campfires to modern kerosene lamps. Electric lighting has effectively displaced firelight as a result of the advancement of electric lamps and control systems. Bioluminescence is a mechanism by which certain organisms produce their own light.

The speed of light is the speed of light. To meet our eyes, photons released from the Sun's surface must pass through space's vacuum. It takes only 490 seconds for sunlight to hit Earth at its nearest location. After that, it takes 507 seconds for sunlight to travel to the farthest point. The Sun's warmth reaches the Earth through radiation, which you can see from standing outside on a sunny day and watching the sun's rays burn your skin.

Until the temperature is at absolute zero, at which point the molecules totally cease moving, every object in the environment is constantly radiating. Shower of raindrops help in total internal reflection and the light energy escaping from the Sun can be spread through it.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Note: In optics, total internal reflection refers to the complete reflection of a beam of light from the outer objects back onto a medium such as water or glass. When the angle of incidence exceeds a certain limiting angle, known as the critical angle, the anomaly happens.
