Answer: The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

Law of reflection:

  • Angle of incident is equal to angle of reflection;∠i=∠r
  • Incident ray, reflected ray and normal to the reflecting interface at the point of incidence all lie in same plane.

When light ray from candle strikes a mirror at an angle of 40° with the normal, then the angle at which ray reflected back will 40°.

Boyles law<br> squeezing a balloon is one way to burst it. Why? ...?
KiRa [710]
According to Boyle's Law,  volume is inversely proportional to pressure. It means if the volume of a gas goes up the pressure goes down and if the volume of the gas goes up the pressure goes down. When the pressure of air inside the inflated balloon is more than the atmospheric pressure outside the balloon. And also when the density inside is greater than the density outside. The molecules inside the balloon move and bang around the inner walls which produces force, which provides the pressure of an enclosed air.

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U.<br><br><br> K=GMm/2R
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U

The object represented by this graph is moving
Vinil7 [7]

The object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.

Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the figure, x-axis is representing increase in the time and y-axis is presenting increase in the distance from bottom to up. But the line in the graph which is plotted is decreasing from high distance to small distance with increase in time. So this indicates that as the time is increasing, the distance is decreasing.

And the object is moving toward the origin as the distance of the object motion is found to decrease with increase of time as per the graph. But the slope of the graph is found to be almost constant, this indicates that the velocity of the object is constant. Thus, the object represented by this graph is moving toward the origin at constant velocity.
