The angle of incidence at the first mirror will this ray strike the midpoint of the second mirror is 34.6°
Two plane mirrors intersect at right angles. A laser beam strikes the first of them at a point d = 10.0cm from their point of intersection.
To strike the midpoint of the second mirror, the ray of light will have to travel half of the distance vertically
i.e. 29/2 = 14.5
We can solve this through trigonometry.
Let the angle between the ray and the vertical plane mirror is known as α
tan α = 10/14.5
α = = 34.6°
The angle of incidence is the angle between the ray and the normal line of the mirror.
Let the angle of incidence of the first mirror be β
β = α = 34.6

The speed of sound in a solid would be 6000 metres per second
Answer:
49.07 miles
Explanation:
Angle between two ships = 110° = θ
First ship speed = 22 mph
Second ship speed = 34 mph
Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b
Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c
Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get
a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ
⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110
⇒a² = 2408.4
⇒a = 49.07 miles
The part that causes the disc caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released is the square-cut O-ring.
The square cut seal is the most important part of a disc brake caliper, for keeping the brake behind the piston so that when you step on the brake pedal, it releases a pressure that applied to the piston which in return applies the pad to the rotor.
