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.

Two 20.0 g ice cubes at − 20.0 ∘ C are placed into 285 g of water at 25.0 ∘ C. Assuming no energy is transferred to or from the
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Ft = 17.48°C

Explanation:

Ft is the final temperature. However, ice absorbs heat during two process of melting and cooling and as such, there is no loss of heat to or from the surrounding hence by conservation of energy.

Therefore,

Heat absorbed by water of 20g = heat rejected by water of 265g.

So; M(ice)[C(ice) [(ΔT) + LH(ice) + C(water)(ΔT)] = C(water) M(water) (ΔT)

So, 20[(2.108) [0 - (-20)] + 333.5 + 4.187(Ft - 0)]] = (285)(4.187) (25 - Ft)

To get;

7513 + 83.74 Ft = 29832.4 - 1193.3 Ft

So factorizing, we get;

83.74 Ft + 1193.3 Ft = 29832.4 - 7513

So; 1277.04 Ft = 22319.4

So; Ft = 22319.4/1277.04 = 17.48°C

Which of the following statements about energy is true? I. Kinetic energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy. II.
Mashcka [7]

Answer: B. II and III only

Explanation:

Let’s begin by explianing what energy is: the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others. In this sense, there are several types of energy, but we will talk especifically in this case about <u>kinetic energy</u> and <u>potential energy</u>.

<u>Kinetic energy </u>is the energy an object or body has due to its movement and depends on the mass and velocity of the object or body.

To understande it better: If an object is at rest, its velocity is null and it does not have kinetic energy, however, if the object is moving, then it has kinetic energy.

On the other hand, <u>Potential energy</u> is known as <em>“stored energy”</em> that has the potential to be converted into energy of motion (kinetic energy) or another type of energy (thermal energy, for example). In addition, this energy is related to the work done when a certain force moves an object or body from its natural resting state along a distance to a new position.

So, according to this, Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy or any other type of energy. Hence, options II and III are correct.

How long does water evaporation take? What factors influence it?
svetoff [14.1K]
There is no certain time on how long it takes. Because the factors will always be different and the factors heavily affect the evaporation time. Some factors include: humidity, heat, how the sun is visible (whether clouds are covering it or not)

Find the potential inside and outside a uniformly charged solid sphere whose radius is R and whose total charge is q. Use infini
amid [387]

Answer:

Recall that the electric field outside  a uniformly charged solid sphere  is exactly the same as if the charge were all at a point in the centre of the  sphere:

E_{outside} =\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0})}\frac{Q}{r^{2} } r^{'}

lnside the sphere, the electric field also acts like a point charge, but only for the proportion of the charge further inside than the point r:

E_{inside} =\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0})}\frac{Q}{R^{2} } \frac{r}{R} r^{'}

To find the potential, we integrate the electric field on a path from infinity (where of course, we take the direct path so that we can write the it as a 1 D integral):

V(r>R)=\int\limits^r_\infty {\frac{1}{4\pi(e_{0)} }\frac{Q}{r^2}  } \, dr=\frac{q}{4\pi(e_{0)} } \frac{1}{r} \\V(r

=\frac{q}{4\pi e_{0} } [\frac{1}{R} -\frac{r^{2}-R^{2}  }{2R^{3} } ]

∴NOTE: Graph is attached
