<span>light colored and smooth surface would most likely be the best reflector of electromagnetic energy.Light, shiny surfaces are the best reflectors of radiation and they will allow the waves to reflect and bounce off rather than absorb. we can consider mirror as the example ,it will only reflect the light energy falling on them and it will not absorb. The darker coloured and rough surfaced substances will definitely absorb some amount of light falling on it. so light coloured smooth or shiny surfaced material would be the best reflector for electromagnetic energy.</span>

Given:

Initial speed of the motorcycle (u) = 35 m/s

Final speed of the motorcycle (v) = 0 m/s (Complete Stop)

Maximum deceleration of the motorcycle (a) = -1.2 m/s²

Required Equation:

$\boxed{\bf{ v = u + at}}$

Answer:

By substituting values in the equation, we get:

$\rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 + ( - 1.2)t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 - 1.2t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35 - 1.2t = 0 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35- 35 - 1.2t = 0 - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 1.2t = - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 1.2t}{ - 1.2} = \dfrac{ - 35}{ - 1.2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow t = 29.167 \: s$

$\therefore$ Time taken by motorcycle to come to a complete stop (t) = 29.167 s

If you double the mass but don't change the net force what is the result on the acceleration

vazorg [7]

F is force, m is mass and a<span> is acceleration. The math behind this is quite simple. If you double the force, you double the acceleration, but if you double the mass, you cut the acceleration in half.</span>

What is the energy equivalent of an object with a mass of 4.1 kg?

siniylev [52]

To determine the energy equivalent of an object, we use the famous equation of Einstein which is E=mc^2 where m is the mass of the object and c is the speed of light (3x10^8 m/s). We calculate as follows:

E = mc^2
E = 4.1 kg (3x10^8 m/s)^2
E = 3.69x10^17 J
