A light ray is incident on a reflecting surface. If the light ray makes a "35°" angle with respect to the normal to the surface,

what is the exact angle (in degrees) made by the reflected ray relative to the normal? Do not include units with your answer.

the reflected light ray is 35° to the normal.

Explanation:

the light ray hitting the reflected surface is the incident ray, and forms an angle of incidence with the normal (the line perpendicular to the reflecting surface). The ray reflected fron the surface is called the reflected ray, and forms an angle of reflection.

since

the angle of incidence=angle of reflection

35° = 35°

Jupiter's moon Io has active volcanoes (in fact, it is the most volcanically active body in the solar system) that eject materia

kramer

Answer:

The height reached by the material on Earth is 91 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass $M_{Io}=8.93\times10^{22}\ kg$

Radius = 1821 km

Height $h_{Io}=500\ km$

Suppose we need to find that how high would this material go on earth if it were ejected with the same speed as on Io?

We need to calculate the acceleration due to gravity on Io

Using formula of gravity

$g =\dfrac{GM_{Io}}{(R_{Io})^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$g=\dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times8.93\times10^{22}}{(1821\times10^{3})^2}$

$g=1.79\ m/s^2$

Let v be the speed at which the material is ejected.

We need to calculate the height

Using the formula of height

$H=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$

Using ratio of height of earth and height of Io

$\dfrac{H_{e}}{H_{Io}}=\dfrac{\dfrac{v^2}{2g_{e}}}{\dfrac{v^2}{2g_{Io}}}$

$\dfrac{H_{e}}{H_{Io}}=\dfrac{g_{Io}}{g_{e}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{H_{e}}{H_{Io}}=\dfrac{1.79}{9.8}$

$\dfrac{H_{e}}{H_{Io}}=0.182$

$H_{e}=0.182\times H_{Io}$

$H_{e}=0.182\times500$

$H_{e}=91\ km$

Hence, The height reached by the material on Earth is 91 km.

Find the distance traveled in one back-and-forth swing by the weight of a 12 in. Pendulum that swings through a 75 degree angle.

tia_tia [17]

The distance traveled by pendulum, in one back-and-forth swing is 75.75 inches.

The period of pendulum can be calculated by

$T = 2\pi \sqrt {\dfrac Lg}$

Where,

$T$ - period

$L$ - length = 12 inches

$g$ - gravitational acceleration = $\bold {9.8\rm \ m/s^2}$

Put the values,

$T = 2\pi \sqrt {\dfrac {12}{9.8}}\\\\T = 2 \times 3.14 \times \sqrt {0.122}\\\\T = 2.191$

Now, the angular displacement of the pendulum can be calculated by,

$\theta = A\times\rm \ cos(\omega T)$

Where,

$A$ - amplitude

$\theta$ - angle = $75^o$

$\omega$ - angular displacement = $2\pi/T$ = 2.866 m

Put the values and calculate for $\omega$ ,

$75 = A\times{\rm \ cos}(2.866\times 2.191)\\\\75 =A \times cos\ 6.26\\\\A =\dfrac {75}{0.99}\\\\A = 75.75 \rm \ inches$

Therefore, the distance traveled by pendulum, in one back-and-forth swing is 75.75 inches.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Dog on the right.

Explanation:

Dog on the left is pulling 10N. The dog on the right is pulling at 12N. So the dog on the right is pulling more. Hope this helps :)))
