Answer:
Christian Doppler
Explanation:
The Scientist with the most significant contribution to the discovery of planets around other stars is Christian Doppler and his work that made this discovery possible is the Principle of DOPPLER EFFECT
<em>Christian Doppler was an Austrian scientist and physicist whose principle Doppler effect explained how observed frequency of light and sound waves are affected by a relative motion of both the source and detector </em>

Question:
A 0.5 kg mass moves 40 centimeters up the incline shown in the figure below. The vertical height of the incline is 7 centimeters.
What is the change in the potential energy (in Joules) of the mass as it goes up the incline?
If a force of 1.0 N pulled up and parallel to the surface of the incline is required to raise the mass back to the top of the incline, how much work is done by that force?
Given Information:
Mass = m = 0.5 kg
Horizontal distance = d = 40 cm = 0.4 m
Vertical distance = h = 7 cm = 0.07 m
Normal force = Fn = 1 N
Required Information:
Potential energy = PE = ?
Work done = W = ?
Answer:
Potential energy = 0.343 Joules
Work done = 0.39 N.m
Explanation:
The potential energy is given by
PE = mgh
where m is the mass of the object, h is the vertical distance and g is the gravitational acceleration.
PE = 0.5*9.8*0.07
PE = 0.343 Joules
As you can see in the attached image
sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse
sinθ = 0.07/0.4
θ = sin⁻¹(0.07/0.4)
θ = 10.078°
The horizontal component of the normal force is given by
Fx = Fncos(θ)
Fx = 1*cos(10.078)
Fx = 0.984 N
Work done is given by
W = Fxd
where d is the horizontal distance
W = 0.984*0.4
W = 0.39 N.m

Q1) What is the speed of the tip of the minute hand of a clock where the hand is of length 7cm?
Ans1) speed, v=st=2πrT=2×227×7×10-260×60=119×10-4=1.22×10-4m/s

The correct answer should be bounced off since the light ray hit the surface and reflected towards a new location. It therefore bounced off.
