Answer:

It is Reflection of light from water surface

Explanation:

When light coming from the mountains incident on the stationary water surface then major proportion of light gets reflected from the surface of water and this will received by the observer eye.

We also know that when light beam gets reflected into the form of beam then it is known as regular reflection.

Here when water surface is calm then the surface is assumed to be plane and in this case the light gets reflected by the surface of water in same direction and we got a good image in the water.

So this property of image is due to reflection of light.

A disk between vertebrae in the spine is subjected to a shearing force of 600 N. Find its shear deformation, taking it to have a

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The shear deformation is $\Delta x=3.34\times10^{-6}\ m$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Shearing force F = 600 N

Shear modulus $S = 1\times10^{9}\ N/m^2$

length = 0.700 cm

diameter = 4.00 cm

We need to find the shear deformation

Using formula of shear modulus

$S=\dfrac{Fl_{0}}{A\Delta x}$

$\Delta x=\dfrac{Fl_{0}}{(\dfrac{\pi d^2}{4})S}$

$\Delta x=\dfrac{4Fl_{0}}{\pi d^2 S}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta x=\dfrac{4\times600\times0.700\times10^{-2}}{3.14\times1\times10^{9}\times(4.00\times10^{-2})^2}$

$\Delta x=3.34\times10^{-6}\ m$

Hence, The shear deformation is $\Delta x=3.34\times10^{-6}\ m$ .

You can make a solute dissolve more quickly in a solvent by

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:Stirring.

Explanation:Stirring a solute into a solvent speeds up the rate of dissolving because it helps distribute the solute particles throughout the solvent. For example, when you add sugar to iced tea and then stir the tea, the sugar will dissolve faster.

How do you calculate the braking distance

Anettt [7]

The braking distance is given by $s=\frac{-u^2}{2a}$

Explanation:

When the driver of a car hits the pedal of the brakes, the car starts decelerating until it stops. Assuming the deceleration is constant, then the motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the following suvat equation:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

u is the initial speed of the car

v is the final speed of the car, which is zero because the car comes to rest:

v = 0

a is the acceleration of the car

s is the distance travelled by the car during the deceleration, so it is the braking distance

Therefore, re-arranging the equation for s, we find an expression for the braking distance:

$s=\frac{-u^2}{2a}$

Note that the sign of $a$ is negative since the car is decelerating, therefore the final sign of $s$ is positive.

A solid circular shaft and a tubular shaft, both with the same outer radius of c=co = 0.550 in , are being considered for a part

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The power for circular shaft is 7.315 hp and tubular shaft is 6.667 hp

Explanation:

Polar moment of Inertia

$(I_p)s = \frac{\pi(0.55)4}2$

= 0.14374 in 4

Maximum sustainable torque on the solid circular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow} \frac{I_p}{r}$

= $(14 \times 10^3) \times (\frac{0.14374}{0.55})$

= 3658.836 lb.in

= $\frac{3658.836}{12}$ lb.ft

= 304.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable torque on the tubular shaft

$T_{max} = T_{allow}( \frac{Ip}{r})$

= $(14 \times10^3) \times ( \frac{0.13101}{0.55})$

= 3334.8 lb.in

= $(\frac{3334.8}{12} )$ lb.ft

= 277.9 lb.ft

Maximum sustainable power in the solid circular shaft

$P_{max} = 2 \pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 304.9$

= 4023.061 lb. ft/s

= $(\frac{4023.061}{550})$ hp

= 7.315 hp

Maximum sustainable power in the tubular shaft

$P _{max,t} = 2\pi f_T$

= $2\pi(2.1) \times 277.9$

= 3666.804 lb.ft /s

= $(\frac{3666.804}{550})$ hp

= 6.667 hp

A parallel plate capacitor is charged up by a battery. The battery is then disconnected, but the charge remains on the plates. T

larisa [96]

Answer:

a. Decreases

b. Increases

c. Remains the same

d. Increases

Explanation:

a. Capacitance is given by c= Ak€/d

where A is conductivity plate with Area

K is a constant

€ is dielectric with permittivity.

d is the distance

b. Potential difference is given by

V = Ed, since, the electric field remains the

same, the potential diterence also increases with increase in distance.

Since the capacitance depends upon the distance, and all the other factors are kept constant, the capacitance decreases.

c. Electric field remains the same because charge on the

plate remains the same.

d. since electric field remains the same and capacitance decreases, the energy increases.

E= 1/2c * Q^2
