The infrared rays in sunlight can cause sunburn. select the best answer from the choices provided
a. true
b. false

The correct answer is False.

Explanation:

Infrared is an example of electromagnetic wave. The wavelength of this wave is shorter.

Sunburn is caused by UV-radiations because the wavelength of this wave is longer and energy is higher.

Relationship between wavelength and energy is given by the Planck's equation:

where,

E = energy of the wave

h = Planck's constant

c = speed of light

= Wavelength of the wave

From the above relation, wavelength of the wave is inversely proportional to the energy of the wave. Hence, infrared rays does not cause any sunburn because these waves have low energy and does not effect the skin.

Hence, the correct answer is False.

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
