Answer:

angle of incidence for the second mirror is 55.4 degree  

Explanation:

Given data;

Angle between two mirror is 90 degree

Incident angle on first mirror is 34.6 degree

For first mirror

Angle of incidence  is equal to  angle of reflection

34.6 degree = angle of reflection

r_1 = 42.5 degree

Now , for the triangle ABC         [from figure]

90 - r_1 + 90 + 90 - i_1 = 180

34.6 + i_1 = 90

i_1 = 55.4 degree

The angle of incidence for

angle of incidence for the second mirror is 55.4 degree

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The mass of Laura and the sled combined is 887.5 kg

Explanation:

The total force due to weight of Laura and friction on the sled can be calculated as follows;

F_T = F_L+F_S

     = (400 + 310) N

     = 710 N

From Newton's second law of motion, "the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force.

F_T = \frac{(M_L+M_S)V}{t}

where;

M_L is mass of Laura and

M_S is mass of sled

Mass of Laura and the sled combined is calculated as follows;

(M_L+M_S) = \frac{F_T*t}{V}

given

V = Δv = 4-0 = 4m/s

t = 5 s

(M_L+M_S) = \frac{710*5}{4}\\\\(M_L+M_S) =  887.5 kg

Therefore, the mass of Laura and the sled combined is 887.5 kg

The gravity tractor, is a proposed spacecraft that will fly close to an asteroid whose trajectory threatens to impact the Earth.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

F_g=461lb_f

Explanation:

First calculate the mass of the asteroid. To do so, you need to find the volume and know the density of iron.

If r = d/2 = 645ft, then:

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\V = 1.124\times10^{9}ft^3\delta_{iron}=m/V=491lb/ft^3m=V\times\delta=5.519\times10^{11}lb

In order to find force, use Newton's universal law of gravitation:

F_g=G\frac{m_1m_2}{d^2}

Where,

G= the gravitational constant:

G= 1.068846 \times10^{-9} ft^3 lb^{-1} s^{-2}

F_g=461lb_f
