What is the speed between reflected ray and the incident ray

Physics

Answer:

The speed is the same as long as the reflection is regular.

Explanation:

This is because in regular reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection in accordance with the second law of reflection.

Since speed of light depends on the angle of the light ray it makes with the reflecting surface, the speed is the same

A sled of mass 10 kg slides along the ice. it has an initial speed of 2 m/s but stops because of friction. How much work is done

NeX [460]

Answer: The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Mass of the sled = 10 kg

Initial speed of the sled = 2 m/s

Kinetic energy of the sled = $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 10 kg\times (2 m/s)^2=20 Joules$

Work done by the sled = 20 joules

The work done by the friction will be in opposite direction and equal to the magnitude of the work done of the sled that - 20 J.

Hence, correct answer is option B.

Suppose a gliding 2-kg cart bumps into, and sticks to, a stationary 5-kg cart. If the speed of the gliding cart before the colli

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Therefore,

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision is

$v_{f}=4\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Glidding Cart = m₁ = 2 kg

Mass of Stationary Cart = m₂ = 5 kg

Initial velocity of Glidding Cart = u₁ = 14 m/s

Initial velocity of Stationary Cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

To Find:

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision = $v_{f}=?$

Solution:

Law of Conservation of Momentum:

For a collision occurring between two objects in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.

It is denoted by "p" and given by

Momentum = p = mass × velocity

Hence by law of Conservation of Momentum we hame

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Here after collision both are stuck together so both will have same final velocity,

$m_{1}\times u_{1}+m_{2}\times u_{2}=(m_{1}+m_{2})\times v_{f}$

Substituting the values we get

$2\times 14 + 5\times 0 =(2+5)\times v_{f}$

$v_{f}=\dfrac{28}{7}=4\ m/s$

Therefore,

Final velocity of the coupled carts after the collision is

$v_{f}=4\ m/s$

A scientist reports a measurement of the temperature of the surface of a newly discovered planet as negative 20 Kelvin. What con

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The temperature of this newly discovered planet violates the third law of thermodynamic, there is a mistake in this value.

Explanation:

The third law of the Thermodynamic says:

<u> At zero kelvin all molecular movement stops, which means that the entropy will be zero at this temperature.</u>

So we can say there is no thermodynamic system that has temperature values less than 0 K.

The conclusion of the report will be.

The temperature of this new planet violates the third law of thermodynamic, there is a mistake in this value.

I hope it helps you!
