Kipish [7]3 years ago

The collapsed answer of Penchalreddy Badepalli is correct. The composition of two reflections via two mirror making an angle \alpha is equivalent to a single rotation by an angle 2\alpha, hence 2 * 60 deg = 120 deg. And turns is independent of the absolute orientation of the two mirrors in space and/or the direction of incidence of the incoming ray.

One could use elementary geometry to prove this (if you presume the direction of incidence is irrelevant imagine hitting the first mirror at 90 deg, then going retro right back along the normal to the first mirror, and follow the directions).

A goal is scored soccer when the ball crosses the goal line. That is the basic rule in obtaining points in a soccer game. However, there could be circumstances where the referee has the call to determine whether a point is made.

Is this a multiple choice question?
If not, well then the answer is that the volcano sort of sinks into the ground. Like it sort of subducts.
Hope this helped!!!:)

Why is it safe to watch an eclipse of the Moon but not an eclipse of the Sun
gavmur [86]
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon crosses in front of the Sun, blocking some or all of its rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the moon is directly behind the earth, blocking the moon from receiving light. The only light comes from the light on earth's reflected shadow.

You can look at a lunar eclipse because there is very little light or none at all. You can't look at a solar eclipse because you are looking directly at the sun unless it is complete. Before totality, only some of the Sun is blocked, causing your pupils dilate to let in more light. Since they do this, more of the Sun's rays can be let in to the eye, which effectively allows your eyes to burn. 

Some doctors and eye care specialists say that after someone complains of blindness after looking at a solar eclipse unaided, they can see what the Sun and moon looked like at the time that they looked at it, as it is burned onto their retinas.

One of the harmonics on a string 1.30m long has a frequency of 15.60 Hz. The next higher harmonic has a frequency of 23.40 Hz. F
Alja [10]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{(a) 7.800 Hz; (b) 20.3 m/s; 40.6 m/s; 60.8 m/s}}

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency

A harmonic is an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency.

\dfrac{\text{23.40 Hz}}{\text{15.60 Hz}} = \dfrac{1.500}{1} \approx \dfrac{3}{2}

f = \dfrac{\text{24.30 Hz}}{3} = \textbf{7.800 Hz}

b) Wave speed

(i) Calculate the wavelength

In a  fundamental vibration, the length of the string is half the wavelength.

\begin{array}{rcl}L & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\text{1.30 m} & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\lambda & = & \text{2.60 m}\\\end{array}

(b) Calculate the speed s

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{1}& = & f_{1}\lambda\\& = & \text{7.800 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{20.3 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{2}& = & f_{2}\lambda\\& = & \text{15.60 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{40.6 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{3}& = & f_{3}\lambda\\& = & \text{23.40 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{60.8 m/s}\\\end{array}
