Answer:

40°

Explanation:

when a ray light is incident on a surface it makes a 40° angle with the normal to the surface (reflecting surface ). this called angle of incidence.

And the angle made by reflected ray with the normal to the surface is called angle of reflection.

by the law of reflection angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection

hence the answer to the question is 40°        ( because ∠i =∠r )

A person with a mass of 15kg is walking uphill at a velocity of2m/s. What is the walker's momentum?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

30 kgm/s

Explanation:

The momentum of a body is given by the product of mass and  its velocity.

∴ momentum = mv

                        = 15 × 2

                        = 30 kgm/s

We have a long wire with a circular cross section and radius a = 2.40 cm. The current density in this wire is uniform, with a to
Alika [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 7.49x10⁻⁶T

Explanation:

The magnetic field is:

B=(\frac{\mu i}{2\pi R^{2} } )r

Where

i = current = 3 A

R = radius = 2.4 cm = 0.024 m

r = distance = 0.72 cm = 7.2x10⁻³m

Replacing:

B=(\frac{4\pi x10^{-7} *3}{2\pi *0.024^{2} } )*7.2x10^{-3}= 7.49x10^{-6} T

A proton travels with a speed of 1.8×106 m/s at an angle 53◦ with a magnetic field of 0.49 T pointed in the +y direction. The ma
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F=1.12\times 10^{-13}\ N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of proton, v=1.8\times 10^6\ m/s

Angle between velocity and the magnetic field, θ = 53°

Magnetic field, B = 0.49 T

The mass of proton, m=1.672\times 10^{-27}\ kg

The charge on proton, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The magnitude of magnetic force is given by :

F=qvB\ sin\theta

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 1.8\times 10^6\ m/s\times 0.49\ Tsin(53)

F=1.12\times 10^{-13}\ N

So, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is 1.12\times 10^{-13}\ N. Hence, this is the required solution.

How much work is required to move
slega [8]
<span>So we want to know how much work is needed to move a charge Q=3C for a distance r=0.01m trough a potencial difference U=9V. Work of electric potential is defined as W=Q*U and we can now simply put in the numbers. We get: W=3C*9V=27J. So the correct answer is (2) 27J. </span>
