According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal angles.

Answer:

Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

Reflection is defined as the repropagation of light rays incident on a surface. An incident light is a light striking the surface of a plane mirror at an angle to the mirror. This incident light will reflect out at the same angle it strikes the plane. This angle is known as the angle of glance (g). The ray perpendicular to the plane surface is called the normal ray.

Therefore, the angle between the incident ray and the normal ray will be the angle of incidence (i) and the angle between the reflected ray and the normal ray will be the angle of reflection (r). Since the angle the incident ray made with the plane surface is equal to the angle that the reflected ray made with the plane surface then our angle of incidence will also be equal to the angle of reflection according to the second law of reflection i.e i=r.

i = r = 90°-g

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

The kinetic friction force between a 60.0-kg object and a horizontal surface is 50.0 N. If the initial speed of the object is 25
Vikki [24]

Answer:

375 m.

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done by the frictional force = Kinetic energy of the object

F×d = 1/2m(v²-u²)..................... Equation 1

Where F = Force of friction, d = distance it slide before coming to rest, m = mass of the object, u = initial speed of the object, v = final speed of the object.

Make d the subject of the equation.

d = 1/2m(v²-u²)/F.................. Equation 2

Given: m = 60.0 kg, v = 0 m/s(coming to rest), u = 25 m/s, F = -50 N.

Note: If is negative because it tends to oppose the motion of the object.

Substitute into equation 2

d = 1/2(60)(0²-25²)/-50

d = 30(-625)/-50

d = -18750/-50

d = 375 m.

Hence the it will slide before coming to rest = 375 m

In a few sentences, describe how the thermostat utilizes a bimetallic strip in order to turn a furnace on and off in one or two
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bimetallic strips are used in thermostats for measuring and controlling temperature. The strip is connected to a switch and as the temperature changes, the strip flexes and opens or closes a contact. They are also used in ovens for measuring temperature. An electromechanical thermostat typically contains either a bi-metal coil or a metal strip. When the temperature changes, this coil or strip will move, causing a vial containing mercury to tip to one side. The mercury flows to one end of the vial, signaling that the heating or cooling needs to be turned on.

The dark bands on the wall are from ______________ interference. and i will give brainlyest
Fittoniya [83]
Light can be seen as an electromagnetic wave.
What happens when two waves, with the same frequency, superpose is called interference.

If at a certain point two waves arrive both with a crest, we have constructive interference and the amplitudes sum up, reaching the maximum value, resulting in bright spots.

If at a certain point one of the waves arrives with a crest and the other wave arrives with a trough, we have destructive interference, and the two amplitudes cancel out, resulting in dark spots.

Therefore, t<span>he dark bands on the wall are from destructive interference.</span>
