The angle between an incident light ray and a plane mirror is 50 degrees. What is the angle of incidence? And what is the total

angle turned by the light ray?
Physics
1 answer:
never [62]3 years ago
6 0

The angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal,
and they're both defined as the angle between the light ray
and the normal (perpendicular) to the mirror.

If the light ray comes in at an angle of 50° to the mirror, then the
angle of incidence is (90° - 50°) = 40°, the angle of reflection is
also 40°, and the light ray is redirected through a total angle of 80°.

Which type of reaction is this?<br> CH3COOH + H20 2 H+ + CH3C00
kumpel [21]

Answer:

dissociation of acetic acid (like vinegar) in water

Explanation:

CH3COOH is basically vinegar (aka acetic acid)

dissociation of acetic acid in water

so when you put vinegar in water it makes 2 hydrogen ions (H+) and acetate ( CH3C00 ) a chemical that used in making film

Anarel [89]

Answer:

Density of liquid = 4730 kg/m³

Atmospheric pressure on planet X = 8401.7 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure, P = ρgh where ρ = density of liquid, g =9.8 m/s² and h = height of column at earth's surface = 2185 mm. Since P = atmospheric pressure, for mercury, P = ρ₁gh₁ where ρ₁ = 13.6 g/cm³ and h₁ = 760 mm

So, ρgh = ρ₁gh₁

ρ = ρ₁h₁/h = 13.6 g/cm³ × 760/2185 = 4.73 g/cm³ = 4730 kg/m³

The atmospheric pressure on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃     g₁ = g/4 and h₃ = 725 mm = 0.725 m

on planet X

P = ρg₁h₃ = (4730 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 0.725 m)/4 = 8401.7 N/m²

A flat coil of wire consisting of 20 turns, each with an area of 50 cm2, is positioned perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic fie
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

0.5 A

Explanation:

N = 20, A = 50 cm^2 = 50 x 10^-4 m^2, dB = 6 - 2 = 4 T, dt = 2 s, R = 0.4 ohm

The induced emf is given by

e = - N dФ/dt

Where, dФ/dt is the rate of change of magnetic flux.

Ф = B A

dФ/dt = A dB/dt

so,

e = 20 x 50 x 10^-4 x 4 / 2 = 0.2 V

negative sign shows the direction of magnetic field.

induced current, i = induced emf / resistance = 0.2 / 0.4 = 0.5 A
