Light that enters the new medium <em>perpendicular to the surface</em> keeps sailing straight through the new medium unrefracted (in the same direction).
Perpendicular to the surface is the "normal" to the surface. So the angle of incidence (angle between the laser and the normal) is zero, and the law of refraction (just like the law of reflection) predicts an angle of zero between the normal and the refracted (or the reflected) beam.
Moral of the story: If you want your laser to keep going in the same direction after it enters the water, or to bounce back in the same direction it came from when it hits the mirror, then shoot it <em>straight on</em> to the surface, perpendicular to it.
Hello,
<span>A car with a mass of 2.0×10^3 kg is traveling at 15m/s. We need to find the momentum of the car. To do so, follow this formula:
p=mv
Where,
p = momentum
m = mass
v = </span>velocity
The cars mass is 2.0E3 and its velocity is 15m/s. Therefore:
p=2.0 x 10^3 *15 or 2000(15)
p=30000
Thus, the cars momentum is 30000 kg m/s

Answer:
W = 55.12 J
Explanation:
Given,
Natural length = 6 in
Force = 4 lb, stretched length = 8.4 in
We know,
F = k x
k is spring constant
4 = k (8.4-6)
k = 1.67 lb/in
Work done to stretch the spring to 10.1 in.
![W = \dfrac{k}{2}[x^2]_6^{10.1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=W%20%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7Bk%7D%7B2%7D%5Bx%5E2%5D_6%5E%7B10.1%7D)
W = 55.12 J
Work done in stretching spring from 6 in to 10.1 in is equal to 55.12 J.
Answer:
the length of the wire is 134.62 m.
Explanation:
Given;
resistivity of the copper wire, ρ = 2.6 x 10⁻⁸ Ωm
cross-sectional area of the wire, A = 35 x 10⁻⁴ cm² = ( 35 x 10⁻⁴) x 10⁻⁴ m²
resistance of the wire, R = 10Ω
The length of the wire is calculated as follows;
Therefore, the length of the wire is 134.62 m.
