The appropriate response is Zero degrees. The beam will leave the two mirrors along a way parallel to the one it came in on. This is the guideline of the corner reflector, which is frequently utilized as a radar target. Take note of that the corner reflector utilizes three reflecting surfaces (that are set up at 90o from each other) rather than the two like are being utilized here. Wikipedia has a truly awesome drawing that shows this two-dimentional issue pleasantly. A moment connection is given to the article on the corner reflector and the 3-D angles.
Horizontal component = (10N) · sin (20°) = 3.42... N (rounded)
Vertical component = (10N) · cos (20°) = 9.39... N (rounded)
An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”
Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”
Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.
Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)
Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?
You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.
Hope this helps!
The initial height of the first body is given by:

where
g is the gravitational acceleration
t is the time it takes for the body to reach the ground
Substituting t=1 s, we find

The second body takes takes t=2 s to reach the ground, so it was located at an initial height of

The second body started its fall 1 second before the first body, therefore when the second body started its fall, the first body was located at its initial height, i.e. at 4.9 m from the ground.
