Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface equals the angle at which it is reflected. Mirrors exhibit specular reflection.

a 100g ice cube at 0 degrees celsius is placed in 650 grams of water at 25 degrees celsius. When the mixture reaches equillibriu

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The latent heat of fusion of water is 334.88 Joules per gram of water.

Explanation:

Let the latent heat of ice be 'x' J/g

1) Thus heat absorbed by 100 gram of ice to get converted into water equals

$Q_1=100\times x$

2) heat energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 25 degree Celsius equals

$Q_2=100\times 4.186\times 11=4604.6Joules$

Thus total energy needed equals $Q_1+Q_2=100x+4604.6$

3) Heat energy released by the decrease in the temperature of water from 25 to 11 degree Celsius is

$Q_3=650\times 4.186\times (25-11)\\\\Q_{3}=38092.6Joules$

Now by conservation of energy we have

$Q_1+Q_2=Q_3\\\\100x+4604.6=38092.6\\\\\therefore x=\frac{38092.6-4604.6}{100}=334.88J/g$

You drop your frozen rock from a green bridge. The frozen rock starts from rest (initial velocity = 0ms). The rock takes 4.3s to

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The velocity of the frozen rock at $t = 1.5\,s$ is -14.711 meters per second.

Explanation:

The frozen rock experiments a free fall, which is a type of uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and air viscosity and earth's rotation effect are neglected. In this case, we need to find the final velocity ( $v$ ), measured in meters per second, of the frozen rock at given instant and whose kinematic formula is:

$v = v_{o} + g\cdot t$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.

$g$ - Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

$t$ - Time, measured in seconds.

If we get that $v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and $1.5\,s$ , then final velocity is:

$v = 0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (1.5\,s)$

$v = -14.711\,\frac{m}{s}$

The velocity of the frozen rock at $t = 1.5\,s$ is -14.711 meters per second.

A plane mirror of circular shape with radius r=20cm is fixed to the ceiling. A bulb is to be placed on the axis of the mirror. A

KIM [24]

Answer:

0.75 m

Explanation:

Let's call the distance between the bulb and the mirror x.

The bulb and the length of the mirror form a triangle. The mirror and the illuminated area on the floor form a trapezoid. If we extend the lines from the mirror edge to the reflected image of the bulb, we turn that trapezoid into a large triangle. This triangle and the small triangle are similar. So we can say:

x / 0.4 = (3 + x) / 2

Solving for x:

2x = 0.4 (3 + x)

2x = 1.2 + 0.4 x

1.6 x = 1.2

x = 0.75

So the bulb should located no more than 0.75 m from the mirror.
