When the mirror is rotated, the normal will turn as well, but will the incident Ray and reflected ray turn?

Physics
1 answer:
Inessa [10]3 years ago
6 0

When a mirror is rotated . . .

-- The incident ray doesn't turn.  It's just the line from the source to the mirror. 
It would be there, in the same place, even if there was no mirror.

-- The normal turns.  It's the line perpendicular to the mirror, so it must turn
with the mirror.

-- Since the normal tuns and the incident ray doesn't, the angle between them
must change.  And since the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of
the incident ray, the reflected ray must also turn.

Fynjy0 [20]
So, the first question is: how many meters are 10 nm?

1nm =<span>0.000000001 m.

So 10 nanometers are </span><span>0.00000001 m!

Now, how many milimeter are those?
let's start with meters, 1 meter are 1000 milimeters.
so </span>
0.00000001*1000=0.<span><span>00001</span> m!

now, micrometers .1 micrometer are 1000 nanometers.
so 10 nanometers are 0.01 micrometers! (1 nanometer is 0.001 micrometers)

A 3,000 kg truck moving at +10 m/s hits a 1,000 kg parked car which moves off at +15 m/s What is the velocity of
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the definition of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is equal to the product of mass by Velocity.

P = m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

We must also clarify that the momentum is preserved i.e. it is equal before the collision and after the collision

Pbeforecollision = Paftercollision

(m₁*v₁) + (m₂*v₂) = (m₁*v₃) + (m₂*v₄)

where:

m₁ = mass of the truck = 3000 [kg]

v₁ = velocity of the truck = 10 [m/s]

m₂ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]

v₂ = velocity of the car before the collision = 0 (the car is parked)

v₃ = velocity of the truck after the collision [m/s]

v₄ = velocity of the car after the collision = 15 [m/s]

(3000*10) + (1000*0) = (3000*v₃) + (1000*15)

30000 = 3000*v₃ + 15000

3000*v₃ = 30000 - 15000

3000*v₃ = 15000

v₃ = 5 [m/s]

How can humans increase the rate of endangered of extinct species
labwork [276]

I would think A. Reduce Environmental Impacts.

If you build and populate more zoos, some of the endangered species might not be able to survive in captivity

If you introduce new predators they are going to kill all the endangered species and if you pass new laws about land use some people may kill the species

calculate the spring constant if a weight of 250N is added to a spring which increases in length by 20cm
ZanzabumX [31]
Since, F = k . ∆x

Therefore, k = F / ∆x = 250 / 0.2 = 1250 N/m

(ps: convert 20 cm into 0.2 m)
