Answer:

<h2>50°</h2>

Explanation:

Angle of rotation of the flat polished surface \theta = 15°

angle of incidence i = 20°

Since the polished surface is turned at an angle of 15°, the angle of reflection

r = 2\theta (Note that the angle of rotation only have effect of the angle of reflection)

r = 2*15 = 30°

The angle between the reflected ray and the incident ray will be equal to the sum of the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection i.e i+r

The angle between the reflected ray and the incident ray = 20°+ 30° = 50°

The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

It takes 130 J of work to compress a certain spring 0.10m. (a) What is the force constant of this spring? (b) To compress the sp
Ede4ka [16]

Explanation:

Given that,

Work done to stretch the spring, W = 130 J

Distance, x = 0.1 m

(a) We know that work done in stretching the spring is as follows :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\k=\dfrac{2W}{x^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{2\times 130}{(0.1)^2}\\\\k=26000\ N/m

(b) If additional distance is 0.1 m i.e. x = 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.2 m

So,

W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 26000\times 0.2^2\\\\W=520\ J

So, the new work is more than 130 J.
