When light traveling in straight lines passes through an object that is curved like a lens, the light is ________ at different a

qwelly [4]

Answer:

You are right. It is reflected

Explanation:

if it is concave then the light is reflected at one direction.

if it is convex the light is reflected outwards and they will travel away from the focal point and the light scatters or will be reflected to different directions

The boom is supported by the winch cable that has a diameter of 0.5 in. and allowable normal stress of σallow=21 ksi. A boom ris

Explanation:

Let us assume that forces acting at point B are as follows.

$\sum F_{x} = 0$

$T + F_{AB} Sin 60$ = 0 ...... (1)

$\sum F_{y}$ = 0

$F_{AB} Cos 60 + W$ = 0 .......... (2)

Hence, formula for allowable normal stress of cable is as follows.

$\sigma_{allow} = \frac{T}{A}$

T = $(20 \times 1000) \frac{\pi}{4} \times (0.5)^{2}$

= 3925 kip

From equation (1), $F_{AB}Sin (60^{o})$ = -3925

$F_{AB} \times -0.304 8$ = -3925

$F_{AB}$ = 12877.29 kip

From equation (2), -12877.29 (Cos 60) + W = 0

$-12877.29 kip \times \frac{1}{2} + W$ = 0

W = 6438.64 kip

Thus, we can conclude that greatest weight of the crate is 6438.64 kip.

A person on a cruise ship is doing laps on the promenade deck. On one portion of the track the person is moving north with a spe

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

The direction of motion of the person relative to the water is 16.7° north of east.

Why?

We can solve the problem by applying the Pitagorean Theorem, where the first speed (to the north) and the second speed (to the east) corresponds to two legs of the right triangle formed with them. (north and east directions are perpendicular each other)

We can calculate the angle that give the direction using the following formula:

$Tan(\alpha)=\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed}\\\\Tan(\alpha)^{-1}=Tan(\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed})^{-1}\\\\\alpha=Tan(\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed})^{-1}$
