Answer:
False. In case of diffused reflection,each ray obeys the laws of reflection. The laws of reflections are not violated in diffused or irregular reflections.
(B) 1.00 m
Explanation:
Since the meter stick is traveling with Jill, it will have the same speed as she does so relative to Jill, the meter stick is stationary so its length remains 1.00 m as measured by her.
Answer:
C. The forces are balanced.
Explanation:
Every answer other than C means the object moved.
(a) If the balloon is suspended in air and it drifts neither up nor down, it means the forces acting on it are equally balanced. There are only two forces acting on the balloon:
- its weight, of magnitude 1 N, directed downward
- the buoyant force, directed upward
The two forces are balanced, so the buoyant force in this case is equal to the weight of the balloon: 1 N.
(b) when the buoyant force decreases, the weight becomes greater than the buoyant force. This means there is now a net force on the balloon, acting downward, so the balloon starts to drift toward the ground.
(c) when the buoyant force increases, it becomes greater than the weight. This means there is now a net force on the balloon, acting upward, so the balloon starts to go up.
