Answer:

5°  

Explanation:

Two diverging light rays, originating from the same point, have an angle of 5° between them.

According to laws of reflection the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

From the attached figure, it is clear that the after reflection from a plane mirror the angle between two rays will be 5°.

O be the originating point. m and n two diverging light rays. When they strikes at the plane mirror, the laws of reflection still fulfilled.

As a reference, consider the line from the point perpendicular to the mirror.
That direction is called 'normal' to the mirror.

The ray on the right leaves the point traveling 5° to the right of the normal,
and leaves the mirror on a path that's 10° to the right of the normal.

The ray on the left leaves the point traveling 5° to the left of the normal,
and leaves the mirror on a path that's 10° to the left of the normal.

The angle between the two rays after they leave the mirror is 20° .

Frankly, Charlotte, if there were more than 5 points available for this answer,
I'd seriously consider giving you a drawing too.

What is a velocity of an object with a momentum of 300 kg m/s and the mass of 100 kg​
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

P is the momentum

m is the mass

v is the velocity

P = m•v

300 = 100•v Divide both sides per 100

300/100 = v

v = 3 m/s

Jenny and Alyssa are members of the cross-country team. On a training run, Jenny starts off and runs at a constant 3.8 m/s. Alys
guapka [62]

Answer:

285 seconds

Explanation:

Jenny speed is 3.8 m/s

Alyssa speed in 4.0 m/s

Alyssa starts after 15 seconds

Find the distance covered by Jenny, when Alyssa starts

Distance=Speed*time

Distance covered by Jenny in 15 seconds= 3.8×15=57m

Relative speed of the two members heading same direction will be;

4.0m/s-3.8m/s=0.2m/s

To find the time Alyssa catch up with Jenny you divide the distance to be covered by Alyssa by the relative speed of the two

Distance=57m, relative speed=0.2m/s  t=57/0.2 =285 seconds

=4.75 minutes

A mass of 0.30kg is attached to a spring and is set into motion with a period of 0.24s. what is the spring constant of the sprin
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The spring constant of the spring is 205.42 N/m.

Explanation:

Springs have their own natural "spring constants" that define how stiff they are. The letter k is used for the spring constant, and it has the units N/m.

                                                         k = -F/x

The period of a spring-mass system is proportional to the square root of the mass and inversely proportional to the square root of the spring constant.

Given:

mass of object in SHM = m = 0.30 kg

Time period of the spring mass system = 0.24s

Spring constant = k ?

Finding 'k' using Time period 'T':

We know that

As a pole of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin in the z-plane, while its phase remains constant, the d
Rudik [331]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

When the location of the poles changes in the z-plane, the natural or resonant frequency (ω₀) changes which in turn changes the damped frequency (ωd) of the system.

As the poles of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin then natural frequency (ω₀) increases, which in turn increases damped oscillation frequency (ωd) of the system.

ωd = ω₀√(1 - ζ)

Where ζ is called damping ratio.

For small value of ζ

ωd ≈ ω₀
