PHYSICS As a ray of light meets a mirror, the light

<h3>Answer:  37 degrees</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The angle of light coming in is the same as the angle of light bouncing out. Each angle is made with the dashed line as the diagram shows.

So angle RMI = 106 is bisected, i.e. divided in half, to get

  • Angle RMN = 53
  • Angle NMI = 53

since 106/2 = 53

Then notice that the horizontal dashed line is perpendicular to the vertical mirror. This means angle NMJ is a 90 degree angle and,

angle RMJ = (angle NMJ) - (angle RMN)

angle RMJ = 90 - 53

angle RMJ = 37 degrees

----------

In short: divide 106 in half to get 53, then subtract it from 90

PLEASE HELP!!! Which rule explains why these scalene triangles are similar
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:  Ratio of Parts

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

\text{Ratio of sides:}\ \dfrac{ST}{WS+ST}=\dfrac{66}{6+66}=\dfrac{66}{72}=\dfrac{11}{12}\\\\\\\text{Ratio of bases:}\ \dfrac{TU}{TU+UV}=\dfrac{44}{44+4}=\dfrac{44}{48}=\dfrac{11}{12}\\\\

The ratios are equal so the triangles are similar.

A ball slides up a frictionless ramp. It is then rolled without slipping and with the same initial velocity up another frictionl
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Rolling case achieves greater height than sliding case

Step-by-step explanation:

For sliding ball:

- When balls slides up the ramp the kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy.

- We have frictionless ramp, hence no loss due to friction.So the entire kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.

- The ball slides it only has translational kinetic energy as follows:

                                   ΔK.E = ΔP.E

                                   0.5*m*v^2 = m*g*h

                                    h = 0.5v^2 / g

For rolling ball:

- Its the same as the previous case but only difference is that there are two forms of kinetic energy translational and rotational. Thus the energy balance is:

                                  ΔK.E = ΔP.E

                                  0.5*m*v^2 + 0.5*I*w^2 = m*g*h

- Where I: moment of inertia of spherical ball = 2/5 *m*r^2

             w: Angular speed = v / r

                               0.5*m*v^2 + 0.2*m*v^2 = m*g*h

                               0.7v^2 = g*h

                               h = 0.7v^2 / g

- From both results we see that 0.7v^2/g for rolling case is greater than 0.5v^2/g sliding case.
