The angle of incidence at the first mirror will this ray strike the midpoint of the second mirror is 34.6°

Two plane mirrors intersect at right angles. A laser beam strikes the first of them at a point d = 10.0cm from their point of intersection.

To strike the midpoint of the second mirror, the ray of light will have to travel half of the distance vertically

i.e. 29/2 = 14.5

We can solve this through trigonometry.

Let the angle between the ray and the vertical plane mirror is known as α

tan α = 10/14.5

α =  = 34.6°

The angle of incidence is the angle between the ray and the normal line of the mirror.

Let the angle of incidence of the first mirror be β

β = α = 34.6

Two scientists interpret the same set of data differently. How would the scientific community deal with this problem?
alexdok [17]
The correct answer would be D. A new experiment would be needed to be done in order to test the conclusions. In science there is no authority, data is the only thing that matters. So if we have two different conclusions from the same date the only solution is to perform more tests and more experiments to see what is correct.

A box with a mass of 2 kg accelerates in a straight line
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer: 16N

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of box M= 2 kg

Initial speed V1 = 4 m/s

Final speed V2 = 8 m/s

Time taken T= 0.5 s

Average strength of this force F = ?

Now, recall that Force is the rate of change of momentum per unit time

i.e Force = momentum / time

Hence, F = M x (V2 - V1)/T

F = 2kg x (8 m/s - 4 m/s) / 0.5s

F = 2kg x (4 m/s / 0.5s)

F = 2kg x 8 m/s/s)

F = 16N

Thus, the average strength of this

force is 16 newton.

A 4810 kg demolition ball swings at the end of a 12.3 m cable on the arc of a vertical circle. At the lowest point of the swing,
faust18 [17]

The tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball in the given vertical circle is 47,577.4 N.

<h3>Tension in the cable</h3>

The tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball is calculated as follows;

T = mg + mac

T = mg + m(v²)/r

T = (4810 x 9.8) + (4810 x 1.06²)/12.3

T = 47,577.4 N

Thus, the tension in the cable supporting the swing of the ball in the given vertical circle is 47,577.4 N.
