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.

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let h be the height .

initial velocity in first case u = 0

final velocity v = 6 m /s

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m /s²

v² = u² + 2 g h

6² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 1.837 m .

For second case u = 3 m /s

v² = u² + 2 gh

= 3² + 2 x 1.837 x 9.8

= 9 + 36

= 45 m

v = 6.7 m /s

A closely wound rectangular coil of 80 turns has dimensions 25.0 \rm cm by 40.0 \rm cm. The plane of the coil is rotated from a
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

88.3

Explanation:

Emf in a rotating coil is given by rate of change of flux:

E= dФ/dt=(NABcos∅)/ dt

N: number of turns in the coil= 80

A: area of the coil= 0.25×0.40= 0.1

B: magnetic field strength= 1.1

Ф: angle of rotation= 90- 37= 53

dt= 0.06s

E= (80 × 0.4× 0.25×1.10 × cos53)/0.06= 88.3V

babymother [125]

acceleration = change in velocity/change in time

so...

a = 20 m/s / 2 seconds

a = 10


hope that helps :)

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

44cm x 22cm

Explanation:

u= 10 cm

v= 1.1 cm

m=v/u= 1.1/10

m=11

hence the size of the image.

A stone of mass 250 g is located at a height of 20 m calculate the potential energy of the stone?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

50J

Explanation:

Potential energy = mass (kg) * gravitational accelerations (10N on earth) * height

250 g in kg = 0.25

0.25 * 10 * 20 = 50 J
