According to the law of refraction, what is the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection

2 answers:

7 0

The relation between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction is known as Snell's Law. Since the light travels with different speed in different media, the direction of the ray of light will change when it crosses the boundary between the two media

The law of refraction doesn't say anything about those angles.

However, the law of REFLECTION says that they're equal.

A sound wave traveling at 343 m/s is emitted by the foghorn of a tugboat. an echo is heard 2.80 s later. how far away is the ref

Nostrana [21]

The echo is heard 2.80 s later, this means this is the time the sound takes to travel to the reflecting object and then back to us. So, during this time, the sound wave has covered the distance L between us and the object twice:
$S=2L$
The speed of the sound wave is: $v=343 m/s$ , and since it is moving by uniform motion, we can find the distance covered by the wave using
$S=vt=(343 m/s)(2.80 s)=960 m$
And we said this corresponds to twice the distance between us and the reflecting object, so:
$L= \frac{S}{2} = \frac{960 m}{2} =480 m$
so, the object is 480 meters away.

In an experiment, an object is released from rest from the top of a building. Its speed is measured as it reaches a point that i

NikAS [45]

Answer:

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

Explanation:

As we know that the air friction or resistance due to air is neglected then we can use the equation of kinematics here

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

since we released it from rest so we have

$v_i = 0$

so here we have

$v_f = \sqrt{2gd}$

now if the distance is double then we have

$v_f' = \sqrt{2g(2d)}$

now from above two equations we can say that

$v_f' = \sqrt2 v_f$

so the speed will increase by 1.44 times then the initial speed if the distance is increased to double

What type of bond results from the side‑on overlap of orbitals?

Serga [27]

Answer:

A pi bond

Explanation:

A pi bond is a type of covalent bond that results from the formation of a molecular orbital by the side-to-side overlap of atomic orbitals along a plane perpendicular to a line connecting the nuclei of the atoms.

If a rock climber accidentally drops a 52.5-g piton from a height of 325 meters, what would its speed be just before striking th

alex41 [277]

Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH
V^2 = 2GH
V = âš2GH
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)
V = âš 6370
V = 79.81 m/s

An electric motor with a 1200 hp output drives a machine with an efficiency of 60%. What is the energy output of the machine per

kirill [66]

Answer:

536,904 J/s

Explanation:

The energy output from motor is the input energy in the machine.

We know that efficiency is percentage energy ouput to energy input, and expressed as

$n=\frac {E_o}{E_i}$

Where n and E represent efficiency and energy respectively, subscripts o and i represent output and input respectively. Since for the machine we have the input energy then the output will be the product of efficiency and input energy

Energy output=0.6*1200 hp=720 hp

Converting hp to J/s we multiply by 745.7

Energy is 720*745.7=536,904 J/s
