Can light be reflected and refracted at the same time?

Physics

Yes, think of a window for example. When you look out of it, you can see whatever is beyond the window. Sometimes, you might even see your own reflection in the window, if the light rays hit the glass and reflect your image in the right direction. This is often debated in quantum mechanics because of the outcome of an interaction between two particles. Another example would be water in a lake or perhaps your pool. You can see into the water, but sometimes, at your own reflection as well.

A 50.0 kg driver is riding at 35.0 m/s in her red sports car when she must suddenly slam on the brakes to avoid
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

3500N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of driver  = 50kg

Speed  = 35m/s

Time  = 0.5s

Unknown:

Average force the seat belt exerts on her = ?

Solution:

The average force the seat belt exerts on her can be deduced from Newton's second law of motion.

   F = mass x acceleration

So;

     F  = mass x  \frac{change in velocity }{time}

  F  = 50 x \frac{35}{0.5}    = 3500N

8. The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in which type of sensor?
AfilCa [17]

Option C

The fact that voltage can be created by exerting force on a crystal is used in Knock sensor

<u>Explanation:</u>

Any knock to an engine exhibits as a little shake that is distinguished by the knock sensor. This sensor acts by altering the fluctuation to an electrical sign, which is later transferred to the processor mastering the ignition system.

There the variation in quake to the voltage sign modifies the timing improvements on the kindling. The knock sensor is placed on the engine base, cylinder cap or consumption manifold. This is because its purpose is to sense fluctuations affected by engine knock or explosion.

Pls help. This is about heat. I got the answer, just need the working
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

You have to heat the calorimeter to 100 C  from 20 C

  this will take   .20 kg *    390 j /kg-C   *  80 C = <u>6240 j</u>

You have to heat the mass of water to boiling point (100 C ) from 20C

this will take    

    .50 kg * 4182 j/kg-C  * 80 = <u>167,280 j </u>

AND you have to add enough heat to boil off  .03 kg of water:

   .03 kg * (2260000 j/kg-C )  =<u> 67,800 j</u>

<u />

Power = joules / sec =  (6240 + 167280 + 67800) / 274.8 =<u> 878 watts </u>

<u />

<u>Your answer may differ just a bit for slightly different or rounded values of specific heat or heat of fusion for water .....</u>

1. A large ball was let go on a hill and started rolling down with a constant acceleration of 4.2 m/s². What was the velocity of
pochemuha

Answer:

<em>The velocity after 12s is 50.4m/s</em>.

Explanation:

<em>In acceleration formula make velocity the </em><em>subject.</em>

<em> acceleration(a) = velocity(</em>v)÷time(t)

<h3><em> </em><em>velocity</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>v)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>acceleration</em><em>(</em><em>a)</em><em>×</em><em>t</em><em>ime</em><em>(</em><em>t)</em></h3>

<em>V </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>.</em><em>2</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s²</em><em>×</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em>s</em>

<em>V </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>4</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s</em>

<em>Therefore</em><em> the</em><em> </em><em>velocity</em><em> </em><em>after</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em>.</em><em>4</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s.</em>
