Valerie was researching environmental effects with respect to reflected radiation. Which term would Valerie use when describing how to measure the reflectivity of a surface? Valerie would use the term Albedo to describe the radiation being reflected from a surface.

Explanation:

Albedo is the total reflecting irradiance divided by the total incidence irradiance, is the fraction of incident radiation that is reflected by a surface.

The value of the Albedo depends of the nature of the surface, the incident angle of the sun and the properties of the atmosphere.

The earth´s albedo is the proportion of sunlight our planet reflects back into space.

the law of original horizontality explains:   why rocks appear in layers. correct answer: b the law suggests that all rock layers are originally laid down (deposited) horizontally and can later be deformed.   the principle is used by geologists to make assumptions about the relative ages of sedimentary rocks.
