<span>
<span>When light bounces off an object, it either gets absorbed, or reflected. For example, light can get absorbed on surfaces which are black in color and they can reflect from flat surfaces such as a mirror. It all matters on the angle of incidence. The angle of incidence is also known as the angle of reflection.</span></span>

<span><span /></span><span> Angle of reflection = Angle of incidence</span>

<span /><span>T<span><span>he ray of light approaching the mirror is called the incident ray. The ray of light that leaves the mirror is called the reflected ray.   </span></span></span>

<span><span><span>Hope it helps </span> </span></span>

A ball thrown horizontally from a point 30.0 m above the ground strikes the ground after travelling a horizontal distance of 18.
AURORKA [14]

The components of the ball's position r at time t are

\begin{cases}r_x(t)=v_{0x}t\\v_y(t)=30.0-4.9t^2\end{cases}

The ball stops 18.0 m from where it began, so that

\begin{cases}18.0=v_{0x}t\\0=30.0-4.9t^2\end{cases}

From the second equation, we can show that the ball travels for about t=2.47 seconds, which means it was initially thrown with a horizontal velocity of

18.0\,\mathrm m=v_{0x}(2.47\,\mathrm s)\implies v_{0x}=7.29\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

the density of mercury is 13.6 gram per centimetre cubic find the volume of 2720 grams of mercury in metres cubic​
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

2×10^-4m^3/0.002m^3

Explanation:

first know the formula of getting density which is

density=mass/volume

substitute with values given in the problem

{before beginning convert all the values to SI units}

13600m/cm^3=2.27kg/x

calculate to solve for x=volume
