The speed of the earth's surface located at 2/3 of the length of the arc between the pole which measure from the equator is 232.5 m/s.

Solution:
So the givens are, earth's radius = 6.37X10^6m, and the angular distance from the pole is 90 degrees. So 60 degrees is the 2/3.

r = 6.37x10^6 * cos(60) = 3.185x10^6m
since v = wr
v = 7.3x10^-5 * 3.185x10^6

v - 232.5 m/s

The law of reflection establishes a definite relationship between the angle of incidence of a light ray striking the boundary be
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a ray of light hits the boundary between two media and it is reflected back into the first medium.

In such a situation, we call:

- angle of incidence: it is the angle between the direction of the incident ray and the normal to the surface

- angle of reflection: it is the angle between the direction of the reflected ray and the normal to the surface

There is a precise relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection. In fact, the Law of Reflection states that:

- The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the surface all lie within the same plane

- The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence

A vector has a magnitude of 30m at an angle of 225 degrees with respect to the positive x-axis and has a magnitude of 13m.what a
Aneli [31]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure this is not a complete question. My guess is that you are trying to add/subtract vectors. Vectors have both magnitude and direction, so vector A is pretty clear, but a magnitude of 13 (i'm guessing a resultant) without a direction is weird.

IF 13 is the magnitude of the resultant, vector B added to vector A could have any magnitude 17 ≤ B ≤ 43

It could have any direction of

θ = (225 - 180) ± arcsin(13/30)

θ = 45 ± 25.679...

70.679 ≤ θ ≤ 19.321

components of vector B would be

Bx = |B|cosθ

By = |B|sinθ

Which of the following describes the principle of conservation of charge?
grigory [225]

Answer: The statement "The charge cannot be created or destroyed describes the principle of the conservation of charge".

Explanation:

According to the conservation of charge, the charge can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be transferred from one system to another.

In an isolated system, the total electric charge remains constant. The net quantity of electric  charge is always conserved in the universe.

Therefore, "the charge cannot be created or destroyed" describes the principle of the conservation of charge.

Which of these statements best proves that electromagnetic forces are weaker than strong nuclear forces? Neutrons do not repel o
MAVERICK [17]
Protons do not move out of the nucleus of atoms although they repel each other.

Remember that protons are particles with positive charge and they held together in the nucleus of the atom which is a tiny tiny region. As you know, like charges repel each other, which means that the protons exert a repulsion force.
