What are plane mirrors ?

Physics
1 answer:
forsale [732]4 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Mirrors consist of reflecting surfaces that reflect light.

Reflection is a phenomenon of light wave (but also of other types of waves) in which a ray of light hits a surface, and then it bounces back into the original medium at a certain angle.

The direction of the reflected ray is determined by the law of reflection:

  • The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the surface all lie in the same plane
  • The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence (where both angles are measured between the ray and the normal to the surface)

A plane mirror is a type of mirror consisting of a straight surface. As a result, light incident perpendicular to the surface is reflected back exactly in the opposite direction.

The image formed by a plane mirror is:

- The same size as the object

- Virtual (it is located behind the mirror)

- Laterally inverted

- Upright

A 5kg baby is asleep in a 5kg stroller. The mom is speed walking in the park at 3m/s. How much momentum does she generate with t
lesya [120]

Answer:

The correct solution is "15 kgm/s". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 5 kg

Velocity,

v = 3 m/s

By applying the formula of momentum, we get

⇒  P=m v

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =5\times 3

⇒      =15 \ kgm/s

A small metal sphere has a mass of 0.11 g and a charge of -21.0 nC . It is 10 cm directly above an identical sphere with the sam
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

A. the magnitude of the force between the spheres is 3.97 x 10⁻⁴ N

B. the magnitude of its initial acceleration is 5.83 m/s²

Explanation:

given information:

metal sphere's mass, m = 0.1 g = 1 x 10⁻⁴ kg

charge, q = -21 nC = -2.1 x 10⁻⁸

r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

What is the magnitude of the force between the spheres?

F₁₂ = k q₁q₂/r²

     = ( 9 x 10⁹) (-2.1 x 10⁻⁸)²/(0.1)²

     = 3.97 x 10⁻⁴ N

If the upper sphere is released, it will begin to fall. What is the magnitude of its initial acceleration?

mg - F₁₂ = ma

a = g - (F₁₂/m)

   = 9.8 - (3.97 x 10⁻⁴/1 x 10⁻⁴)

   = 5.83 m/s²

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum can be seen by humans?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Visible light

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is the classification of the electromagnetic waves based on their frequency and wavelength. In order from the shortest to the longest wavelength, we have

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

All these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the visible light part. Visible light is perceived as a different color by the human eye, depending on the wavelength of the light. In particular, we have:

Violet: 380 - 450 nm

Blue: 450 - 495 nm

Green: 495 - 570 nm

Yellow: 570 nm - 590 nm

Orange: 590 nm - 620 nm

Red: 620 nm - 750 nm

What can the arrow in a chemical reaction be translated to mean? Check all that apply.
Goryan [66]
The ardor determines the result of a reaction.
[formula A]+[formula B]—> [formula C]
Here, the arrow signifies that when adding formula A and B, you get formula C. An arrow can also go both directions.
[formulaA]+[form.B]<—>[formulaC]+[form.D]
Here, the double sided arrows means that adding formulas A and B will give you C and D, and adding formulas C and D will give you A and B.
