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.

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
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
acceleration = change in velocity/change in time
so...
a = 20 m/s / 2 seconds
a = 10
hope that helps :)

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.
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
