As the surface given is a smooth surface, we can use specular reflection. According to the law of specular reflection, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection, so it will also be 40°. Answer is A.

Juan and Kuri are on a carousel. Juan is closer to the center of the carousel than Kuri. Which statement describes their tangent
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.

Explanation:

Since Juan is closer to the center and Kuri is away from the center so we can say that Juan will move smaller distance in one complete revolution

As we know that the distance moved in one revolution is given as

d = 2\pi r

also the time period of revolution for both will remain same as they move with the time period of carousel

Now we can say that the speed is given as

v = \frac{2\pi r}{T}

so Juan will have less tangential speed. so correct answer will be

Juan and Kuri complete one revolution in the same time, but Juan travels a shorter distance and has a lower speed.

The law of universal gravitation (gravity) describes two factors that affect the force of gravity between objects. What two fact
kykrilka [37]
The force depends on the mass of both objects and the distance between them

F = G*m1*m2/r^2

So the force has a linear connection with the mass of both objects and a quadratic connection with the distance between the center of masses

Write short notes on proper management of sewage and garbage​
vladimir2022 [97]

Explanation:

Waste management (or waste disposal) includes the processes and actions required to manage waste from its inception to its final disposal.[1] This includes the collection, transport, treatment and disposal of waste, together with monitoring and regulation of the waste management process and waste-related laws, technologies, economic mechanisms. Proper management of waste is important for building sustainable and liveable cities, but it remains a challenge for many developing countries and cities. A report found that effective waste management is relatively expensive, usually comprising 20%–50% of municipal budgets. Operating this essential municipal service requires integrated systems that are efficient, sustainable, and socially supported.[6] A large portion of waste management practices deal with municipal solid waste (MSW) which is the bulk of the waste that is created by household, industrial, and commercial activity.[7] Measures of waste management include measures for integrated techno-economic mechanisms[8] of a circular economy, effective disposal facilities, export and import control[9][10] and optimal sustainable design of products that are produced.

A weather balloon is operating at an altitude at which the density of air is 0.90 kg/m^3. At this altitude, the balloon has a vo
Archy [21]

Answer:

54 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.  There are four forces acting on the balloon.  Buoyant force pushing the balloon up, gravity pulling the helium down, gravity pulling the balloon skin down, and gravity pulling the load down.

Apply Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

B − Wh − Wb − L = ma

When the load is at a maximum, the acceleration is 0:

B − Wh − Wb − L = 0

B − Wh − Wb = L

B − mh g − Wb = L

The mass of the helium is its density times its volume:

B − ρh Vh g − Wb = L

Buoyant force is defined as B = ρVg, where ρ is the density of the displaced fluid (in this case, air), V is the volume of the displaced fluid, and g is acceleration of gravity.  Since the volume of displaced air = the volume of the helium:

ρa V g − ρh V g − Wb = L

(ρa − ρh) V g − Wb = L

Given that ρa = 0.90 kg/m³, ρh = 0.178 kg/m³, V = 20 m³, g = 9.8 m/s², and Wb = 88 N:

(0.9 − 0.178) (20) (9.8) − (88) = L

L = 53.5 N

Rounded to 2 sig-figs, the maximum load that can be supported is 54 N.
