They got back in the Lunar Explorer Module
The car is staying still. either getting petrol or stopped at a light .
Answer:
If the ray of light is deflected by 45 degrees by the first mirror its total deflection by mirror (I) is 90 deg. (incident = 45 and exit ray equals 45 deg)
The second mirror will cause a net deflection of 90 degrees and the total deflection will be 180 deg or in opposite direction to the incident ray.
Answer:
M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3 conservation of momentum
V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1 where V2 = speed of M1 after impact
V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9 = (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s
Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign
