When lava reaches the surface of the Earth through volcanoes or through great fissures the rocks that are formed from the lava cooling and hardening are called extrusive igneous rocks. Some of the more common types of extrusive igneous rocks are lava rocks, cinders, pumice, obsidian , and volcanic ash and dust.

A 4,000-kg car traveling at 20m/s hits a wall with a force of 80,000 N and comes to a stop. What was the impact time?

Nookie1986 [14]

Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)
<span>soo, t = 1 sec</span>

Answer:

Reflective

Explanation:

The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;

$P_{abs}= \frac{I}{C}$

and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;

$P_{ref}= \frac{2I}{C}$

Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.
