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.

kirill [66]

The variables that Madison will have to deal with to test her hypothesis that increased concentrations of salt in the air speeds the corrosion of certain metals are as follows:

  • Independent variable: concentration of salt
  • Dependent variable: corrosion of metal

<h3>What are independent and dependent variables?</h3>

In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that is changed or manipulated in a series of experiments.

On the other hand, a dependent variable is that outcome measured to see the effectiveness of the treatment.

According to this question, Madison makes an hypothesis that an increased concentrations of salt in the air speeds the corrosion of certain metals, the variables she should look out for are as follows:

  • Independent variable: concentration of salt
  • Dependent variable: corrosion of metal

A toy car having mass m = 1.50 kg collides inelastically with a toy train of mass M = 3.60 kg. Before the collision, the toy tra
baherus [9]

Answer:

  v_{f} = 3,126 m / s

Explanation:

In a crash exercise the moment is conserved, for this a system formed by all the bodies before and after the crash is defined, so that the forces involved have been internalized.

the car has a mass of m = 1.50 kg a speed of v1 = 4.758 m / s and the mass of the train is M = 3.60 kg and its speed v2 = 2.45 m / s

Before the crash

    p₀ = m v₁₀ + M v₂₀

After the inelastic shock

    p_{f}= m v_{1f} + M v_{2f}

    p₀ =  p_{f}

    m v₀ + M v₂₀ = m v_{1f}  + M v_{2f}

We cleared the end of the train

     M v_{2f} = m (v₁₀ - v1f) + M v₂₀

Let's calculate

     3.60 v2f = 1.50 (2.15-4.75) + 3.60 2.45

     v_{2f}  = (-3.9 + 8.82) /3.60

      v_{2f}  = 1.36 m / s

As we can see, this speed is lower than the speed of the car, so the two bodies are joined

set speed must be

      m v₁₀ + M v₂₀ = (m + M) v_{f}

      v_{f}  = (m v₁₀ + M v₂₀) / (m + M)

      v_{f}  = (1.50 4.75 + 3.60 2.45) /(1.50 + 3.60)

      v_{f} = 3,126 m / s

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The archerfish must spit at a minimum speed of 3.43m/s at an angle of 69.14\° above the horizontal.

Explanation:

Hi

First of all, we need to find the angle above the horizontal at which the archerfish must spit, as we can see in the attachment this angle is \Theta = 69.14\°.

Then we use the formula h=\frac{v_{0}^{2}sin^{2} \Theta}{2g}, as we clear it for v_{0}, we obtain, v_{0}=\frac{\sqrt{2gh} }{sin\Theta}=\frac{\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^{2})(0.525m)} }{sin(69.14\°)}=3.43m/s, therefore the archerfish must spit at a minimum speed of 3.43m/s at an angle of 69.14\° above the horizontal.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The fringes are 4.7*10^-7 m apart, such that they are adjacent.

Explanation:

Using the formula for adjacent fringes given a single slit:

Δx=\frac{(Wavelength)(Distance between slit and screen)}{Width}

Δx=\frac{(590/10^{9})(1.90) }{(2.30)}

Δx=0.000000487 m

Hope this helps!
