What is unique about the c-ray that is not about other rays? Note: Refer to the concave mirror video Select one: a. only ray whose angle of incidence = angle of reflection b. only ray that reflects back in the same direction it came from c. both the above statements are true d. none of the above

b. only ray that reflects back in the same direction it came from

Explanation:

C-rays can be said to be a ray that comes from the center of the curvature. It is known that any ray that comes from the center of the curvature reflects back in the same direction it came from, this is because the line joining from the center of the curvature to any point in the mirror is perpendicular to the mirror.

Correct answer is option B.

C-ray is the only ray that reflects back in the same direction it came from.

Option A is incorrect because for other rays, angle of incidence = angle of reflection. This is not a property of c-ray.

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.

i don't understand. explain it clearly
