The splitting of white light into seven colours is called
A. Scattering
B. Dispersion
C. Total internal reflection
D. Refraction
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Dispersion: separation due to different refractive indices for different colours. Refraction is bending. Scattering (Tyndall effect) makes sky blue. Total internal reflection in optical fibers.
Explanation:
In an open vessel, water boils at 100°C, and extra heat merely creates steam rather than raising the temperature. A pressure cooker traps steam, increasing the internal pressure above atmospheric pressure. Increased pressure raises the boiling point of water (often to around 120°C). Cooking the food at this higher temperature significantly reduces cooking time.
Explanation:
Silicon semiconductor, abundant, efficient for photovoltaic cells. Also gallium arsenide. Solar cells convert light to electricity. Renewable energy technology.
