The law of reflection states that if the angle of incidence is 78 degrees, the angle of reflection is ___ degrees.

1 answer:

8 0

the correct answer is Equal in measure because The law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface of the mirror all lie in the same plane.

A physical pendulum consists of a meter stick that is pivoted at a small hole drilled through the stick a distance x from the 50

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

x=0.01457 m

Explanation:

From parallel axis theorem

I=Icm+mh²

where h=x

The rotational inertia about its center of mass is

Icm=mL²/12

where L=1.0 m

Thus T=4.8s we obtain

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{mL^{2}/12+mx^{2} }{mgx} }\\ T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L^{2} }{12gx}+x/g }\\ T^{2}=4\pi^{2}(\frac{L^{2} }{12gx}+x/g )/x\\ T^{2}x=\frac{\pi^{2} L^{2} }{3g}+(\frac{4\pi^{2} }{g})x^{2}\\ 0=(\frac{4\pi^{2} }{g} )x^{2}-(T^{2} )x+(\frac{\pi^{2}L^{2} }{3g} )\\ 4.03x^{2}-23.04x+0.335=0$

After Solving this quadratic we get

x₁=5.702 m

x₂=0.01457 m

One of the solution is an impossible value for x (x=5.70m is greater than L)

So we choose the other one

x=0.01457 m

Use what you know about mass and how you use it to calculate force in the following situation. If each washer has a mass of 4. 9

mina [271]

Considering the change of units and the definition of weight, the mass of two washers would be 0.0098 kg and if 4 washers are attached to the string, then the applied force on the car will be 0.196 N.

Mass of two washers

If each washer has a mass of 4.9 g, then the mass of two washers will be calculated simply by multiplying the mass of 1 washer by the amount you have of them, in this case 2:

4.9 g×2= 9.8 g

Being 1 kg = 1000 g, you apply the following rule of three to make the change of units: if 1000 g equals 1 kg, 9.8 g equals how many kilograms?

$mass=\frac{9.8 gramsx1 kg}{1000g}$

Solving:

mass= 0.0098 kg

Finally, the mass of two washers would be 0.0098 kg.

Applied force

On the other side, mass is the amount of matter that a body contains and weight is the action exerted by the force of gravity on the body.

The mass of an object will always be the same, no matter where it is located. Instead, the weight of the object will vary according to the force of gravity acting on it.

Weight is calculated as the product of the object's mass and the value of the gravitational acceleration:

W= m×g

In this case, you know:

m= 4.9 g×4= 19.6 g= 0.0196 kg → the mass of 4 washers in kilograms
g= 10 m/s²

Replacing:

W= 0.0196 kg× 10 m/s²

Solving:

W= 0.196 N

Finally, if 4 washers are attached to the string, then the applied force on the car will be 0.196 N.
