3. How much energy, in joules, does it take to raise a gallon of room temperature water, ~21.1°C, to boiling? Some useful values: kg gal Pwater = 3.79- J g°C Cw=4.18- 4. Consider the gallon of water from the scenario in the previous question. If we use a 600 square centimeter magnifying glass to focus the sun's light on the water, how long will it take to raise the water to boiling? Ignore any heat lost by the water during the process. Some useful values: The radiant power of the sun at noon on the Earth's equator is about 1,370 watts per square meter. That is 1,370 joules of energy every second over every square meter of the Earth near the equator.

17. Which of the following statements about Snell's law in the context of a seismic survey is incorrect? Snells law: sin 0,- V1 %D sin 02 V2 Here, 0, is the incidence angle and 02 is the transmission angle. a. Snell’s law shows the angular relationship between the incident and transmitted waves at the interface in terms of velocities b. The angle of reflection can be different from the angle of incidence c. When a seismic wave travels from a region of low velocity to high velocity, the wave is refracted away from the normal vector of the interface d. When 02-90 degree, a head wave develops due to critical refraction
