I believe it is B, the object that reflects a lot of light, absorbs a little light, and transmit almost no light.

The correct answer to the question is: Object B.

EXPLANATION:

Before going to answer this question, first we have to understand the reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient and absorption coefficient.

The reflection coefficient ( r )of an object is the ratio of energy reflected to the total energy incident on the object.

The absorption coefficient ( a )  of an object is defined as ratio of amount of energy absorbed to the amount of energy incident on it.

Similarly, the ratio of amount of energy transmitted to the total amount of energy incident is called transmission coefficient ( t ).

We know that a + r + t = 1

If a = 0 and t = 0, the reflection coefficient r = 1.

The body having reflection coefficient approximately equal to one will reflect a lot of light, absorbs a little light, and will transmit almost no light.

As per options given in the question, the body B is more polished and shining. Hence, its reflection coefficient is more as compared to transmission and absorption coefficient.

Hence, the answer of the question is object B.

show mathematically why an 80,000 pound ( 36,000 kg ) big rig taveling 2 mph (0.89 m/s) has the SAME MOMENTUM as a 4,000 pound (
bekas [8.4K]

The momentum value for both Big rig and sport utility vehicle are the same as 16000 pound mph

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data are as follows  

For Big rig, Mass = 80,000 pound (36,000 kg)  

velocity = 2  mph (0.89 m/s)

where mph is meter per hour

For sport utility vehicle, Mass = 40,000 pound (1800 kg)

velocity = 40 mph (18 m/s)

The formula to find the Momentum of an object is

Momentum = Mass × Velocity (Kilogram meter per second)

Momentum for Big rig = 80,000 × 2 (pound mph)

 = 1,60,000 pound mph

Momentum for sport utility vehicle = 4000 × 40 (pound mph)

 = 1,60,000 pound mph  

Hence it is mathematically proved that  

The momentum of big rig = The momentum of sport utility vehicle

1,60,000 pound mph = 1,60,000 pound mph

What's the process?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Falling objects form an interesting class of motion problems. For example, we can estimate the depth of a vertical mine shaft by dropping a rock into it and listening for the rock to hit the bottom. By applying the kinematics developed so far to falling objects, we can examine some interesting situations and learn much about gravity in the process.
