Question 11 of 20 A race car sits at the starting line on a racetrack. When the race starts, the car's tires exert a force on the track. According to Newton's third law of motion, what prevents the race car from sinking into the track? O A. The track surface exerts a force that is larger and in the same direction as the force exerted by the tires. B. The force of friction between the car tires and the track prevents the car from moving. C. The track exerts a force that is equal and in the opposite direction as the force exerted by the tires. D. A normal force that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to gravity pushes on the car. ​

the displacement produced by the body.  

the amount of force subjected to the body.  

the angle between the direction of force and displacement

scattering of light by tiny particles in air to produce the colors we see on sky, is dependent on the following factors:

(i) wavelength of light

(ii) size of the scattering particle  

(iii) distance traveled by light through the atmosphere.

according to rayleigh's law of scattering, the amount of scattering is inversely proportional to the fourth power of its wavelength. shorter the wavelength, greater is its scattering. hence violet/blue light is scattered more than red.

sun's light is a composite light ( visible light) with wavelengths in the range 400 nm (violet) to 700 nm (red). as sunlight passes through our atmosphere, the molecules of air scatter light according to their wavelengths. during sunrise and sunset, the sun's position is below the horizon. hence light from the sun travels a greater distance in the atmosphere when compared to its position a noon.

as sunlight enters the earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away and at the end of its journey in the sky, only red and orange wavelengths remain in the beam.

hence at sunrise and sunset, the sky appears reddish orange.
