Answer:

They are reflected back at the same angle they came in

Explanation:

When parallel light rays hit a convex mirror they reflect outwards and travel directly away from an imaginary focal point (F). Each individual ray is still reflecting at the same angle as it hits that small part of the surface.

A 1-kilogram mass is attached to a spring whose constant is 21 N/m, and the entire system is then submerged in a liquid that imp

amm1812

Answer:

the required value is $x(t) = \frac{7}{4} e^{-3t}-\frac{3}{4} e^{-7t}$

Explanation:

Given that,

mass, m = 1kg

spring constant k = 21N/M

damping force = $-\beta\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{-10dx}{dt}$

$\beta = 10$

By Newtons second law ,

The diffrential equation of motion with damping is given by

$m\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} = -kx-\beta\frac{dx}{dt}$

substitute the value of m =1kg, k = 21N/M, and $\beta = 10$

$1\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} = -21x=10\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{d^2x}{dt^2} + 10\frac{dx}{dt} + 21x = 0$

suppose the equation of the form $x =e^m^t$ ,

and the auxilliary equation is given by

$m^2 + 10m + 21 = 0\\\\m^2 + 7m+3m+21=0\\\\m(m+7)+3(m+7)=0\\\\(m+7)(m+3)=0\\\\m=-7\\m=-3$

The general solution for the above differential equation is

$x(t) =C_1e^{-3t}+C_2e^{-7t}$

Derivate with respect to t

$x'(t)=-3C_1e^{-3t}-7C_2e^{-7t}$

(a)

since time is 0 then mass is one meter below

so x(0) = 1

Also it start from rest , that implies , velocity is 0 and time is 0

$x'(0) = 0$

substitute the initial condition

$C_1 +C_2 = 1$

$-3C_1-7C_2=0$

Solve the above equation to get C₁ and C₂

$C_1 =\frac{7}{4} and C_2 = -\frac{3}{4}$

substitute for C₁ and C₂ in general solution

$x(t) = \frac{7}{4} e^{-3t}-\frac{3}{4} e^{-7t}$

Thus the required value is $x(t) = \frac{7}{4} e^{-3t}-\frac{3}{4} e^{-7t}$

How do greenhouse gases such as CO2 and N2O contribute to an increase in Earth’s atmospheric temperature?

konstantin123 [22]

CO2 and N2O keep the energy that gets to Earth from the sun inside the atmosphere. Without greenhouse gases, our planet would be too cold. But due to the recent increase in greenhouse gases, more energy released from the sun is contained in the Earth, heating it up.

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 9.7-mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.664 and 0.3

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

844°C

Explanation:

The problem can be easily solve by using Fick's law and the Diffusivity or diffusion coefficient.

We know that Fick's law is given by,

$J = - D \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$

Where $\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$ is the concentration of gradient

D is the diffusivity coefficient

and J is the flux of atoms.

In the other hand we have, that

$D= D_0 e^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}$

Where $D_0$ is the proportionality constant,

R is the gas constant, T the temperature and $E_d$ is the activation energy.

Replacing the value of diffusivity coefficient in Fick's law we have,

$J = -D_0 ^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$

Rearrange the equation to get the value of temperature,

$T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}$

We have all the values in our equation.

$\Delta c = 0.664-0.339 = 0.325 C. cm^{-1}$

$\Delta x = 9.7*10^{-3}m$

$E_d = 82000J$

$D_0 = 6.5*10^{-7}m^2/s$

$J = 3.2*10^{-9}m^2/s$

$R= 8.31Jmol^{-1}K$

Substituting,

$T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}$

$T=-\frac{-82000}{(8.31)ln(\frac{3.2*10^{-9}(9.7*10^{-3})}{6.5*10^{-7} (0.325)})}$

$T=1118.07K=844\°C$

A car moves at 20 m s' for 15 minutes. Calculate the distance travelled

Firdavs [7]

Explanation:

Calculating this according to the m/s rate

Now solving the question

If the car goes 20 m/s mathematically we can generate it as

15 × 60 = 600 secs

If the car goes 20 meters per every second it means

The car will go 20 meters for 900 secs

Which is 900 ×20 = 18000m/s

=18000÷1000 = 1km

Therefore the answer is 18km
