What happens to light that shines on an object but is not transmitted?

This is an exercise in adding vectors, the easiest way to solve them is to decompose the vectors and add each component algebraically. Let's use trigonometry

first displacement. d = 1.2 miles to 30º south of East

cos ( 360-30) = cos (-30) = x₁ / d

sin (-30) = y₁ / d

x₁ = d cos (-30)

y₁ = d sin (-30)

x₁ = 1.2 cos (-30) = 1,039 miles

y₁ = 1.2 sin (-30) = -0.6 miles

second shift. d = 2.0 miles to 20º West of South

cos (270-20) = x₂ / d

cos (250) = y₂ / d

x₂ = 2.0 cos 250 = -0.684 miles

y₂ = 2.0 sin250 = -1.879 miles

Third displacement. d = 1.6 miles to 30º South of West

cos (180 + 30) = x₃ / d

sin (210) = y₃ / d

x₃ = 1.6 cos 210 = -1.3856 miles

y₃ = 1.6 sin 210 = -0.8 miles

Fourth displacement. d = 2.6 miles to 15º West of North

cos (90 + 15) = x₄ / d

sin (105) = y₄ / d

x₄ = 2.6 cos 105 = -0.6729 miles

y₄ = 2.6 sin 105 = 2,511 miles

having all the components we add

x-axis (West-East direction)

X = x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + x₄

X = 1.039 -0.684 - 1.3846 - 0.6729

X = -1.7025 miles

Y = y₁ + y₂ + y₃ + y₄

Y = -0.6 -1.879 -0.8 +2.511

Y = -0.768

The modulus of this displacement is we use the Pythagorean theorem

D = √ (X² + Y²)

D = √ (1.7025² + 0.768²)

D = 1.8677 miles

let's use trigonometry to find the direction

tan θ = Y / X

θ = tan⁻¹ Y / x

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.768 / 1.7025)

θ = 24.28º

as the two components are negative this angle is in the third quadrant

therefore in cardinal direction form is

θ = 24.28º at South of West

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part I Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. T

Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is said to be possessed due to the motion of the object. An object at rest will have zero kinetic energy and if it is in motion it will have some kinetic energy. The mathematical expression for kinetic energy is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times v^2$ ...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of object

It is clear form expression (1) that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.

So, the hypothesis for the mass and kinetic energy can be written as " when the mass of the object increases, its kinetic energy also increases because there exists a direct relationship between the mass and the kinetic energy of the object".
