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".

Define orbital velocity

sveta [45]

the Orbital Velocity is the velocity sufficient to cause a natural or artificial satellite to remain in orbit. Inertia of the moving body tends to make it move on in a straight line, while gravitational force tends to pull it down. The orbital path, elliptical or circular, representing a balance between gravity and inertia, and it follows a rue that states that the more massive the body at the centre of attraction is, the higher is the orbital velocity for a particular altitude or distance.

g Initially, the motorcycle travels along a straight road with a speed of 35 m/s (this is almost 80 mph). The maximum decelerati

astraxan [27]

Given:

Initial speed of the motorcycle (u) = 35 m/s

Final speed of the motorcycle (v) = 0 m/s (Complete Stop)

Maximum deceleration of the motorcycle (a) = -1.2 m/s²

Required Equation:

$\boxed{\bf{ v = u + at}}$

Answer:

By substituting values in the equation, we get:

$\rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 + ( - 1.2)t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 - 1.2t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35 - 1.2t = 0 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35- 35 - 1.2t = 0 - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 1.2t = - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 1.2t}{ - 1.2} = \dfrac{ - 35}{ - 1.2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow t = 29.167 \: s$

$\therefore$ Time taken by motorcycle to come to a complete stop (t) = 29.167 s
