Two mirrors are at right angles to one another. A light ray is incident on the first at an angle of 30° with respect to the norm

al to the surface. What is the angle of reflection from the second surface?

Answer:

reflected angle - secod mirror = 60°

Explanation:

I attached an image with the solution to this problem below.

In the solution the reflection law, incident angle = reflected angle, is used. Furthermore some trigonometric relation is used.

You can notice in the image that the angle of reflection in the second mirror is 60°

In a laundromat, during the spin-dry cycle of a washer, the rotating tub goes from rest to its maximum angular speed of 2.2 rev/
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

n_{T} = 31.68\,rev

Explanation:

The angular acceleration is:

\ddot n_{1} = \frac{2.2\,\frac{rev}{s} -0\,\frac{rev}{s} }{8.8\,s}

\ddot n_{1} = 0.25\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}

And the angular deceleration is:

\ddot n_{2} = \frac{0\,\frac{rev}{s}-2.2\,\frac{rev}{s} }{20\,s}

\ddot n_{2} = -0.11\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}}

The total number of revolutions is:

n_{T} = n_{1} + n_{2}

n_{T} = \frac{\left(2.2\,\frac{rev}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{rev}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(0.25\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}} \right)} + \frac{\left(0\,\frac{rev}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(2.2\,\frac{rev}{s} \right)^{2}}{2\cdot \left(-0.11\,\frac{rev}{s^{2}} \right)}

n_{T} = 31.68\,rev

Two oppositely charged but otherwise identical conducting plates of area 2.50 square centimeters are separated by a dielectric 1
TEA [102]

Answer: 38.2 μC

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the relationship for a two plate capacitor with a dielectric  so:

C= Q/V= we also know that for two paralel plates C=εo*k*A/d and V=E/d

where k is the dielectric constant, A plate area, V is potential difference; E electric field and d the separation between the plates.

reorganizing we have:

Q/A=σ= E*k/εo= 1.2 * 10^6*3.6/8.85 * 10^-12=38.2μC

A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 2.51×103 N forward push by the motor, and the other is a 1
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Acceleration a=0.455m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given that the force by the motor F=2.51\times 10^3N=2510N

Resistive force by the water F=1.88\times 10^3N=1880N

So net force F_{NET}=2510-1880=630N

Mass of the boat = 1384.1 kg

According to newton's second law F=Ma, here M is mass and a is acceleration

So 630=1384.1\times a

a=0.455m/sec^2
