Infinite times does the light reflect before exiting the space between the two mirrors.

Light reflection

Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface. For a smooth surface, reflected light rays travel in the same direction. This is called specular reflection. For a rough surface, reflected light rays scatter in all directions. This is called diffuse reflection.

Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. This is called specular reflection.

A light source radiates 60.0 W of single-wavelength sinusoidal light uniformly in all directions. What is the average intensity

umka21 [38]

Answer: $29.85\ W/m^2$

Explanation:

Given

Power $P=60\ W$

Distance from the light source $r=0.4\ m$

Intensity is given by

$I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

Inserting values

$\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{60}{4\pi (0.4)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{60}{2.010}\\\\\Rightarrow I=29.85\ W/m^2$

A rope attached to a load of 175 kg bricks Ilifts the bricks with a steady acceleration of 0.12.m/s^2 straight up. What is the t

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Tension, T = 1736 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of bricks, m = 175 kg

A rope is attached to a load of 175 kg bricks lifts the bricks with a steady acceleration of 0.12 m/s² in vertically upwards direction. let T is the tension in the rope. Using second equation of motion as :

T - mg = ma

T = ma + mg

T = m(a + g)

T = 175 kg ( 0.12 m/s² + 9.8 m/s² )

T = 1736 N

Hence, the tension in the wire is 1736 N.
