Answer:

Specular reflection

Explanation:

It is produced in very flat reflective surfaces as with mirrors. In this case the reflection takes place in only one direction thanks to which it is possible to form images.  This type of reflection obeys the law of reflection, so the angle of incidence of the rays is equal to the angle of reflection.

Answer: The correct answer is "Reflection".

Explanation:

Reflection is the phenomenon in which the light ray gets reflected from the surface without getting transmit or absorb. It bounces back from the surface.

There are two laws of reflection.

(1) The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.

(2) The reflected ray, the incident ray and the normal lie in the same plane.

When you see your image on the surface of the water in a pond, the reflection phenomenon is at work.

Therefore, the correct answer is "Reflection phenomenon".

One important relationship between chemical and mechanical weathering is ________. 1. mechanical weathering forms more brittle m
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

2. mechanical weathering can produce smaller pieces of rock that have more surface area for chemical weathering to work Explanation:

Mechanical weathering involves activities of living organisms or some geological processes. The bigger rocks are usually reduced to smaller rocks and further reduction might be limited or not posibble mechanically. This reduced rocks now increases the surface area available for chemical weathering; which further reduces the sizes of the rocks below the size range of mechanical weathering. one will recall that the rate of chemical reaction increases with exposed surface area.

Technician A says the counter gear is actually several gears machined out of a single piece of steel. Technician B says the coun
dexar [7]

Answer:

Option c. (Both Technician A and B are correct)

Explanation:

A transmission system consists of 3 shafts. The input shaft, the counter shaft, and the main shaft. The clutch gear always rotates with input shaft and is a crucial element of the input shaft.

The counter shaft is actually several gears machined out of a single piece of steel. The counter shaft may also be called counter gear or cluster gear.  It is a secondary shaft that runs parallel to the mainshaft in a gearbox and is used to provide powers to machine components such as the drive axle.

The main gears (also called the speed gears) on main shaft (also known as the output shaft) are used to transfer rotation from counter shaft to the output shaft.

Hence in the light of above description, both technician A and B are correct.

At an altitude of 5000 m the rocket's acceleration has increased to 6.9 m/s2 . What mass of fuel has it burned?
sergey [27]

1) Initial upward acceleration: 6.0 m/s^2

2) Mass of burned fuel: 0.10\cdot 10^4 kg

Explanation:

1)

There are two forces acting on the rocket at the beginning:

- The force of gravity, of magnitude F_g = mg, in the downward direction, where

m=1.9\cdot 10^4 kg is the rocket's mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

- The thrust of the motor, T, in the upward direction, of magnitude

T=3.0\cdot 10^5 N

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on the rocket must be equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration, so we can write:

T-mg=ma (1)

where a is the acceleration of the rocket.

Solving for a, we find the initial acceleration:

a=\frac{T-mg}{m}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^5-(1.9\cdot 10^4)(9.8)}{1.9\cdot 10^4}=6.0 m/s^2

2)

When the rocket reaches an altitude of 5000 m, its acceleration has increased to

a'=6.9 m/s^2

The reason for this increase is that the mass of the rocket has decreased, because the rocket has burned some fuel.

We can therefore rewrite eq.(1) as

T-m'g=m'a'

where

m' is the new mass of the rocket

Re-arranging the equation and solving for m', we find

m'=\frac{T}{g+a}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^5}{9.8+6.9}=1.8\cdot 10^4 kg

And since the initial mass of the rocket was

m=1.9 \cdot 10^4 kg

This means that the mass of fuel burned is

\Delta m = m-m'=1.9\cdot 10^4 - 1.80\cdot 10^4 = 0.10\cdot 10^4 kg

A 10 µf capacitor is charged to 108 v and is then connected across a 328 ω resistor. what is the initial charge on the capacitor
valina [46]
The capacitance is defined as the maximum charge stored in a capacitor, Q, divided by the voltage applied, V:
C= \frac{Q}{V}

The capacitor is initially charged with the battery of 108 V, so the the initial charge on the capacitor can be found by re-arranging the previous formula:
Q=CV=(10 \mu F)(108 V)=1080 \mu C
