The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .

When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.

The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( μ= sin i / sin r) .

hope all of it helps you!

Cars A and B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner:

zysi [14]

Answer:

$\frac{x_{o}}{v_B-V_A} =t$

Explanation:

Represent the car's position as a function

$x_o=$ "head start"

$x_{A}(t) = x_{o} + v_{A}t\\x_B(t)=v_Bt \\$

$Remember: v_B>v_A$

"cathching up means" that $x_A(t)=x_B(t)$

$x_{o} + v_{A}t =v_Bt\\x_{o} = v_Bt -v_{A}t\\x_{o} = t(v_B-V_A)\\\frac{x_{o}}{v_B-V_A} =t, where \ v_B>v_A$

Two workers are sliding 350 kgkg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 390 NN while the

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.18$

Explanation:

First, we write the equations of motion for each axis. Since the crate is sliding with constant speed, its acceleration is zero. Then, we have:

$x: T+F-f_k=0\\\\y:N-mg=0$

Where T is the tension in the rope, F is the force exerted by the first worker, f_k is the frictional force, N is the normal force and mg is the weight of the crate.

Since $f_k=\mu_k N$ and $N=mg$ , we can rewrite the first equation as:

$T+F-\mu_k mg=0$

Now, we solve for $\mu_k$ and calculate it:

$\mu_k=\frac{T+F}{mg}\\ \\\mu_k =\frac{220N+390N}{(350kg)(9.8m/s^{2})} =0.18$

This means that the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.18.

rjkz [21]

Hi there!

We can use Newton's Second Law:

$\Sigma F = ma$

∑F = net force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

We are given the mass and acceleration, so:

∑F = 20 · 2 = 40 N

Two fat black arrows are swimming along together, when they see a single skinny black arrow coming toward them. They are afraid of strangers, and they know that the skinny one must be mean and tough if it's not afraid to travel alone. So they turn to the side and get out of the skinny arrow's way.
