Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When light is reflected, the "outgoing" ray is also called the reflected ray.

Explanation:

when an light ray is incident on a boundary of two mediums it an reflect or refract.

reflected ray is the part of the ray that gets back with same mediu that it was coming from. angle of reflection and incident are equal . angle of reflection and incident are the angle made by the reflected and incident ray with the normal.

total internal reflection occurs when the incident angle is greater than the critical angle of pair of given medium and when light travels from denser to rarer medium . in total internal reflection ray gets reflected with no loss at all.

in refracted ray the the light ray passes to the other medium angle of incidence and refraction are not same.

What is a <br> quadratic graph
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y -axis. The coefficients a,b, and c in the equation y=ax2+bx+c y = a x 2 + b x + c control various facets of what the parabola looks like when graphed.

A planet is discovered orbiting the star 51 Peg with a period of four days (0.01 years). 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Me
artcher [175]

Answer:

Less than Mercury's

Explanation:

According to third Kepler's law, the square of the planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the average orbital radius of the planet's orbit. The constant of proportionality depends only on the mass of the star, recall that 51 Peg has the same mass as the Sun. Since the orbital period of this planet is less than Mercury's, its average orbital radius is less than Mercury's.

An archer tests various arrowheads by shooting arrows at a pumpkin that is suspended from a tree branch by a rope, as shown to t
erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.
