Answer:

Red line is reflected ray.

Explanation:

According to the given figure, the blue line represent the incident ray. It strikes the surface and reflection occurs. The dotted line shows normal.

After reflecting the surface, the ray of light is reflected. Red line shows the reflected light.

In this case, the laws of reflection follows i.e. the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

A 60 cm diameter wheel accelerates from rest at a rate of 7 rad/s2. After the wheel has undergone 14 rotations, what is the radi

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

$a=368.97\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, $\omega=0$

Acceleration of the wheel, $\alpha =7\ rad/s^2$

Rotation, $\theta=14\ rotation=14\times 2\pi =87.96\ rad$

Let t is the time. Using second equation of kinematics can be calculated using time.

$\theta=\omega_it+\dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2\\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\theta}{\alpha }} \\\\t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 87.96}{7}} \\\\t=5.01\ s$

Let $\omega_f$ is the final angular velocity and a is the radial component of acceleration.

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\\\omega_f=0+7\times 5.01\\\\\omega_f=35.07\ rad/s$

Radial component of acceleration,

$a=\omega_f^2r\\\\a=(35.07)^2\times 0.3\\\\a=368.97\ m/s^2$

So, the required acceleration on the edge of the wheel is $368.97\ m/s^2$ .

Are light waves longitudinal or transverse

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

There are two types of waves, according to the direction of their oscillation:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are electromagnetic waves

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Light waves corresponds to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes all the different types of electromagnetic waves (which consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave): therefore, they are transverse waves.

An 81.5-kg man stands on a horizontal surface.

OLga [1]

Answer:

a)V= 0.0827 m³

b)P=181.11 x 10² N/m²

Explanation:

Given that

m = 81.5 kg

Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³

As we know that

Mass = Volume x Density

81.5 = V x 985

V= 0.0827 m³

The force exerted by weight = m g

F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)

Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²

The Pressure P

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}$

$P = \dfrac{815}{4.5\times 10^{-2}}\ N/m^2$

P=181.11 x 10² N/m²

A wave with a period of 0.008 second has a frequency of?

tatyana61 [14]

The formula for frequency is f = 1/T where f is frequency and T is period in seconds.
You have you period which is 0.008s and that is all you will need to solve or frequency in a wave:
f = 1/2
f = 1/0.008s
f = 125Hz

Distinguish between force and friction. class 8

KengaRu [80]

Answer: Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. For example, when you try to push a book along the floor, friction makes this difficult. Force: Force is essentially a push, or a pull action, that can lead to certain outcomes.
