Answer:

The angle is the light reflected from the second mirror is 30°

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle between mirrors = 100°

Angle of incident = 70°

We know that,

The incident angle is equal to the reflected angle.

We need to calculate the angle BCA

According to figure,

In \Delta ABC,

\angle ABC+\angle BCA+\angle C=180

Put the value into the formula

20+100+\angle BCA=180

\angle BCA = 60

We need to calculate the angle is the light reflected from the second mirror

Using relation of incident and reflection

i+\angle BCA=90

i=90-60=30^{\circ}

We know that, i = r

So, i=r=30°

Hence, The angle is the light reflected from the second mirror is 30°

A block is released to slide down a frictionless incline of 15∘ and then it encounters a frictional surface with a coefficient o
Elodia [21]

The block's potential energy at the top of the incline (at a height h from the horizontal surface) is equal to its kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline, so that

mgh = 1/2 mv²

where v is its speed at the bottom of the incline. It follows that

v = √(2gh)

If the incline is 20.4 m long, that means the block has a starting height of

sin(15°) = h/(20.4 m)   ⇒   h = (20.4 m) sin(15°) ≈ 5.2799 m

and so the block attains a speed of

v = √(2gh) ≈ 10.1728 m/s

The block then slides to a rest over a distance d. Kinetic friction exerts a magnitude F over this distance and performs an amount of work equal to Fd. By the work-energy theorem, this quantity is equal to the block's change in kinetic energy, so that

Fd = 0 - 1/2 mv²   ⇒   d = (-1293.58 J)/F

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force on the block as it slides is

∑ F [vertical] = n - mg = 0

where n is the magnitude of the normal force, so that

n = mg = (25 kg) g = 245 N

and thus the magnitude of friction is

F = -0.16 (245 N) = -39.2 N

(negative since it opposes the block's motion)

Then the block slides a distance of

d = (-1293.58 J) / (-39.2 N) ≈ 32.9994 m ≈ 33 m

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.
