The sun’s surface has a grainy texture produced by numerous bright markings called

Granules

Explanation:

The outer most layer of the Earth is photo-sphere. The photo-sphere layer of the sun is characterized by many bright markings i.e. it has a grainy texture. These are called granules. Granules are produced due to convection currents. The top of the convection cells are visible which give it a grainy texture and is known as granulation.

answer: at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.

explanation:

since we have given that

the population for alpha city, t years after january 1, 2004 is given as

first we find out the initial population, i.e. t=0,

so, our quadratic equation becomes,

according to question, we have said that if the population has twice its initial population, then it becomes

so, time taken to reach this above mentioned population is given by

now, we know that time can't be negative so, we take t=9.149 years.

hence, at 24 february, 2014 the population gets twice of its initial population.
