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?

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°.

80N force ;

The power of the engine is 320 W.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power may be defined as the rate of doing work (or) work done per unit time. One unit of energy is used to do the one unit of work.

                          Power = Work done / Time taken

Given, Force = 80 N,    height = 5 m , final velocity = 4 m/s

To calculate the power, we must know the time taken.

To find the time, use the distance and speed formula which is given by

                              Time = Distance / speed

Here distance = 5 m and speed = 4 m/s

                              Time = 5 / 4 = 1.25 s.

Now,          Power = work done / time

                              = (F * d) / t  = (80 * 5) / 1.25

                  Power = 320 W.

The standard unit of power is watt (W) which is joule per second.

A filled water tower sits on the top of the highest hill near a city. The cylindrical tower has a height of 55.0 m
Reika [66]

Answer:

539 kPa

Explanation:

Pressure equals density times acceleration of gravity times depth.

P = ρgh

Water has a density of 1000 kg/m³, and acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².

P = (1000 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²) (55.0 m)

P = 539,000 Pa

P = 539 kPa

If μs is greater than some critical value, the woman cannot start the crate moving no matter how hard she pushes. calculate this
fiasKO [112]

weight = mg acts downwards <span>
normal force = N acts upwards. 
and force F acts at an angle θ below the horizontal. 
(Let us assume that the woman pushes from the left, so F is acted towards the right, which is below the horizontal) 
so that, Frictional force, f=us*N acts towards the left 

Now we balance the forces along x and y directions: 
y direction: N = mg + F sinΘ 
x direction: us * N = F cosΘ 

We let the value of µs be equal to a value such that any F will not be able to move the crate. Then, if we increase F by an amount F', then the force pushing the crate towards the right also increases by F' cosΘ. Additionally, the frictional force f must raise by exactly this amount. 
Since f can’t exceed us*N, so the normal force must increase by F' cosΘ/us. 
Also, from the y direction equation, the normal force exceeds by F' sin Θ. 

<span>These two values must be the same, therefore:
<span>us = cot θ</span></span></span>
