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

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.

Answer:

Tarzan will be moving at 7.4 m/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) of cliff = 2.8 m

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) =?

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Finally, we shall determine how fast (i.e final velocity) Tarzan will be moving at the bottom. This can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 2.8)

v² = 0 + 54.88

v² = 54.88

Take the square root of both side

v = √54.88

v = 7.4 m/s

Therefore, Tarzan will be moving at 7.4 m/s at the bottom.

ball of mass 0.4 kg is attached to the end of a light stringand whirled in a vertical circle of radius R = 2.9 m abouta fixed po
Levart [38]

Answer:

6.046N

Explanation:

The net force exerted on the mass is the sum of tension force and the external force of gravity.

F_n_e_t=F_g+F_t

F_t is the tension force.F_g=9.8N/kg is the force of gravity.

F_n_e_t=ma_c=mv^2/r\\

where r is the rope's radius from the fixed point.

From the net force equation above:

F_t=F_n_e_t-F_g\\=mv^2/r-mg\\=0.4\times(8.5^2/2.9)-0.4\times9.8\\=6.046N

Hence the tension force is 6.046N
