How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?

1 answer:

5 0

Reflection, it is the phenomena of getting back the light you've shown from a light source with the same angle. refraction, It is the phenomena of bending of light when it changes it medium. This can rarer to denser or denser to rarer. diffraction, It is the phenomena of bending of light near the edges of the object. hope this helps

Answer:

Time interval;Δt ≈ 37 seconds

Explanation:

We are given;

Angular deceleration;α = -1.6 rad/s²

Initial angular velocity;ω_i = 59 rad/s

Final angular velocity;ω_f = 0 rad/s

Now, the formula to calculate the acceleration would be gotten from;

α = Change in angular velocity/time interval

Thus; α = Δω/Δt = (ω_f - ω_i)/Δt

So, α = (ω_f - ω_i)/Δt

Making Δt the subject, we have;

Δt = (ω_f - ω_i)/α

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

Δt = (0 - 59)/(-1.6)

Δt = -59/-1.6

Δt = 36.875 seconds ≈ 37 seconds

Nady [450]

Answer:

(a) 1.939 m/h

(b) 0.926 m/h

(d) -1.21 m/h

Explanation:

Here, we have the water depth given by the function of time;

D(t) = 7 + 5·cos[0.503(t-6.75)]

Therefore, to find the velocity of the depth displacement with time, we differentiate the given expression with respect to time as follows;

D'(t) = $\frac{d(7 + 5\cdot cos[0.503(t-6.75)])}{dt}$

= 5×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))×0.503

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503(t-6.75))

= -2.515×(-sin(0.503×t-3.395))

Therefore we have;

(a) at 5:00 AM = 5 - 0:00 = 5

D'(5) = -2.515×(-sin(0.503×5-3.395)) = 1.939 m/h

(b) at 6:00 AM = 6 - 0:00 = 6

D'(5) = -2.515×(-sin(0.503×6-3.395)) = 0.926 m/h

D'(5) = -2.515×(-sin(0.503×7-3.395)) = -0.315 m/h

(d) at Noon 12:00 PM = 12 - 0:00 = 12

D'(5) = -2.515×(-sin(0.503×12-3.395)) = -1.21 m/h.

A gymnast of mass 63.0 kg hangs from a vertical rope attached to the ceiling. You can ignore the weight of the rope and assume t

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

A ) When gymnast is motionless , he is in equilibrium

T = mg

= 63 x 9.81

= 618.03 N

B )

When gymnast climbs up at a constant rate , he is still in equilibrium ie net force acting on it is zero as acceleration is zero.

T = mg

= 618.03 N

C ) If the gymnast climbs up the rope with an upward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2

Net force on it = T - mg , acting in upward direction

T - mg = m a

T = mg + m a

= m ( g + a )

= 63 ( 9.81 + .6)

= 655.83 N

D ) If the gymnast slides down the rope with a downward acceleration of magnitude 0.600 m/s2

Net force acting in downward direction

mg - T = ma

T = m ( g - a )

= 63 x ( 9.81 - .6 )

= 580.23 N
