What causes a regular reflection

1 answer:

7 0

Regular reflection is a reflection such that the the angle of reflection of the light is equal to the angle of incidence and it is on the opposite of the normal to the point of incidence. In a regular reflection the incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the reflection all lie in the same plane. Regular reflection happens if the reflection surface is very smooth.

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.

dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The value of capillary rise in the tube = 0.0363 cm

Explanation:

Diameter of the glass tube = 0.03 meter

Contact angle = 22 degree

We know that the capillary rise (h) in the tube is given by the formula =

h = (2 α cos β) / (d g R )

⇒ d = density of gasoline = 749 kg / $m^{3}$

β = 22 degree

R = radius of the tube = 0.015 m

α = surface tension of gasoline = 0.0216 N / m

cos 22 = 0.927

Put all the values in the above formula we get

⇒ h = (2 × 0.0216 × 0.927) / (749 × 9.81 × 0.015)

⇒ h = 0.0363 cm

This is the value of capillary rise in the tube.

Jose is batting for the home team when he hits a foul ball that rises straight up over home plate. A fan in the stands notices t

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given maximum height reached by the ball as H = 40 metres

Since the ball rises straight up when hit by a ball, then the angle of launch will be perpendicular to the ground and that is 90°.

To determine the upward speed of the ball in meters per second after it got struck by the bat, we will use the formula for calculating the maximum height according to projectile motion;

Maximum Height H = $\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$ where;

u is the speed of the ball

$\theta$ is the angle of launch

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

Substituting the given parameters into the formula;

$40 = \frac{u^2sin^2(90)}{2(9.81)}\\ \\40 = \frac{u^2}{2(9.81)}\\ \\40 = \frac{u^2}{19.62} \\cross\ multiply\\\\u^2 = 40*19.62\\u^2 = 784.8\\u = \sqrt{784.8}\\ u = 28.01 m/s$

<em>Hence the upward speed of the ball in meters per second after it got struck by the bat is 28.01m/s.</em>
