The Law of Reflection. A student makes the following three claims about the law of reflection:

1. Whenever a light ray strikes a surface, it will always reflect away perpendicular to the surface.

2. A light ray will always reflect away from a surface at an angle equal to the angle at which it struck the surface.

3. A light ray traveling perpendicular to a surface will always scatter away at different angles when it reflects from the surface.

With which statement do you most agree? Explain your reasoning.

Modern physics a photon emitted from an excited hydrogen atom has an energy of 3.02 electron volts. which electron energy-level transition would produce this photon? a. n=1 to n=6 b. n=2 to n=6 c. n=6 to n=1 d. n=6 to n=2 i chose b but the correct answer is d can someone tell me why? and what's the difference?

Aheat engine running backward is called a refrigerator if its purpose is to extract heat from a cold reservoir. the same engine running backward is called a heat pump if its purpose is to exhaust warm air into the hot reservoir. heat pumps are widely used for home heating. you can think of a heat pump as a refrigerator that is cooling the already cold outdoors and, with its exhaust heat qh, warming the indoors. perhaps this seems a little silly, but consider the following. electricity can be directly used to heat a home by passing an electric current through a heating coil. this is a direct, 100% conversion of work to heat. that is, 19.0 \rm kw of electric power (generated by doing work at the rate 19.0 kj/s at the power plant) produces heat energy inside the home at a rate of 19.0 kj/s. suppose that the neighbor's home has a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 4.00, a realistic value. note: with a refrigerator, "what you get" is heat removed. but with a heat pump, "what you get" is heat delivered. so the coefficient of performance of a heat pump is k=qh/win. an average price for electricity is about 40 mj per dollar. a furnace or heat pump will run typically 200 hours per month during the winter. what does one month's heating cost in the home with a 16.0 kw electric heater? what does one month's heating cost in the home of a neighbor who uses a heat pump to provide the same amount of heating?
