Answer:

30 degrees

Explanation:

Reflects off of mirror 1  at   60 degrees....this makes it incident to second mirror at 30 degrees ....then angle of reflection equals this angle of incidence = 30 degrees

Polarizers #1 and #3 are "crossed" such that their transmission axes are perpendicular to each other. Polarizer #2 is placed bet
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The angle between the polariser 1 and 2 is 60°

If I₁ be the intensity of light after polariser 1 , its intensity after polariser 2 that is I₂ can be expressed as follows

I₂ = I₁ cos² 60

= I₁ x 1/4

=  I₁ x \frac{1}{4}

A 465 g block slides along a frictionless surface at a speed of 0.35 m/s. It runs into a horizontal massless spring with spring
katovenus [111]

Answer:

a) The duration, during which the block remain in contact with the spring is 0.29 s

b) The period of the simple harmonic oscillatory motion depends only on the mass and spring constant, therefore when the speed is doubled, the duration of contact remains the same as 0.29 s.

Explanation:

Mass of the block = 465 g

Surface speed = 0.35 m/s

Spring constant , k = 54 N/m

T = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} } = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{0.465}{54} }  = 0.58 s

a) Since the period for the oscillatory motion is 0.58 s, then the time when the block and spring remain in contact is T/2 = 0.29 s

b) When the speed is doubled, we have

T = 2\times \pi \times \sqrt{\frac{m}{K} }

Therefore, since T is only dependent on the mass, m and the  spring constant, K, then the time it takes when the speed is doubled remain as

T /2 = 0.29 s

Explain how a hydroelectric power plant converts energy stored in water into electricity
mart [117]
Hot water, as in very hot water, goes to steam with an enormous change in volume and pressure. This is capable of driving turbine blades, which in turn rotate enormous copper (eg) wired coils in enormous magnetic fields. This in turn produces electricity via electromagnetic induction and Fleming's right hand (I think it is) DYNAMO rule. That goes down miles and mile of v heavy conducting wire/cable as electricity.

A car is travelling at a constant speed of 26.5 m/s. Its tires have a radius of 72 cm. If the car slows down at a constant rate
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Magnitude of angular acceleration = -3.95 rad/s²

Explanation:

Angular acceleration is the ratio of linear acceleration and radius.

That is

        \texttt{Angular acceleration}=\frac{\texttt{Linear acceleration}}{\texttt{Radius}}\\\\\alpha =\frac{a}{r}

Radius = 72 cm = 0.72 m

Linear acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

a=\frac{11.7-26.5}{5.2}=-2.85m/s^2

Angular acceleration

        \alpha =\frac{a}{r}=\frac{-2.85}{0.72}=-3.95rad/s^2

Angular acceleration = -3.95 rad/s²  

Magnitude =  3.95 rad/s²

N 1800kg car has an<br> of 3.8m/s? What is it<br> on the car?<br> acceleration<br> force acting
nevsk [136]

Answer:

6840 N

Explanation:

The force acting on the car can be found by using Newton's second law:

F = ma

where

F is the net force on the car

m is the mass of the car

a is its acceleration

For the car in this problem,

m = 1800 kg

a=3.8 m/s^2

Substituting,

F=(1800)(3.8)=6840 N
