Why can you see your own reflected image in a mirror but not on a dry, painted wall?

1 answer:

7 0

A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.

2.5m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Acceleration = 0.5m/s²

time of travel = 5s

Solution:

Final velocity = ?

Solution:

Acceleration can be defined as the change in velocity with time:

Acceleration = $\frac{Final velocity - Initial velocity}{time}$

From the equation above, the unknown is final velocity:

Final velocity - initial velocity = Acceleration x time

since initial velocity = 0

Final velocity = 0.5 x 5 = 2.5m/s

There are many interesting applications of our energy density model to the flow of blood in the human circulatory system. One in

qaws [65]

Answer:

Pressure increases due to enlargement

Explanation:

Energy density is just a fancy name for pressure

Pressure is same at the bottom of the cups (same level-Pascal's law)

thus, Air pressure 1 + h1d1g = Air pressure 2 + h2d1g

= Air pressure 3 + (h2-h1)d2g +h1d1g

from the first 2, we get that since h2>h1, AP2<AP1

from the next 2, we get that since d2<d1, AP3>AP2

from first and third, we get that AP1>AP3

thus, finally AP1>AP3>AP2

for fluids flowing in tubes (blood vessel in this case)

P+0.5dv^2 + gh is constant (also called the bernoulli equation

for the same blood vessel, the heights remain same i.e h1=h2

for same flow rate, inc in area decreases the speed at which the blood flows as vA must remain same

hence, P increases due to enlargement

Newtown third law applies to blank of objects

fomenos

Answer:

All

Explanation:

I'm not sure what you meant but Newton's third law which basically states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction applies to <em>all</em> objects. So I think the answer is all.
