A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.
Answer:
Explanation:
Electric field between plates of a parallel plate capacitor is uniform .
In a uniform electric field , relation between electric field and potential gradient is as follows
electric field = potential gradient [ E = - dV / dl ]
in the given case ,
dV = 51 V ,
dl = 4 cm
= 4 x 10⁻² m
E = 51 / 4 x 10⁻²
= 12.75 x 10² V / m
= 1275 V / m
The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is
directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in
the form of:
d = k t^2
where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs /
s^2
<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t
= 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>
2 = k (2)^2
k = 2 / 4
k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2
The equation becomes:
d = 0.5 t^2
Now solving for d when t = 4:
d = 0.5 (4)^2
d = 0.5 * 16
<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>
<span>
</span>
<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
Answer: 10 m/s^2
Explanation:
1) The second law of Newton gives the definition and formula to calculate the net force:
Net force acting on an object = mass * acceleration.
2) From that, when you know the net force acting of the object and its mass, you can solve for the acceleration:
acceleration = Net force / mass
acceleration = 50 N / 5 kg = 10 m/s^2, which is the answer.
