Leto [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

bounces off the mirror at the same angle it hits the solid surface.

Explanation:

According to the Law of Reflection, a light ray strikes a mirror at the point of incidence bounces off the mirror at the same angle it hits the solid surface.

The incident ray and the reflected ray lie in the same plane

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection as a ray of light reflects off a solid surface.

So,

correct answer is ''bounces off the mirror at the same angle it hits the solid surface.''

Properties such as luster conductivity and flexibility are used to describe what type of elements
pickupchik [31]
Answer: metals.

Justification:

There are 118  elements which you can find in the periodic table ordered by atomic number. Those elements my be classified into metals, non-metals and metalloids.

The metals are placed on the left side of the periodic table. The metals share the properties of luster, conductivity and flexibility.

The properties of non-metals (which are on the right side of the periodic table) are opposite to those of metals: opaque, low conductivity and brittle.

Metalloids have in between properties.

Copper, for example is a metal: it has luster, is flexible and is highly conductive of the electricity (and temperature).

A 0.500-nm x-ray photon is deected through 134 in a Compton scattering event. At what angle (with respect to the incident beam)
natita [175]

Answer:

The angle of recoil electron with respect to incident beam of photon is 22.90°.

Explanation:

Compton Scattering is the process of scattering of X-rays by a charge particle like electron.

The angle of the recoiling electron with respect to the incident beam is determine by the relation :

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{hf}{m_{e}c^{2}  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}      ....(1)

Here ∅ is angle of recoil electron, θ is the scattered angle, h is Planck's constant, m_{e} is mass of electron, c is speed of light and f is the frequency of the x-ray photon.

We know that, f = c/λ      ......(2)

Here λ is wavelength of x-ray photon.

Rearrange equation (1) with the help of equation (1) in terms of  λ .

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{h}{m_{e}c\lambda  })\tan\frac{\theta }{2}

Substitute 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ m² kg s⁻¹ for h, 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for m_{e}, 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c, 0.500 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ  and 134° for θ in the above equation.

\cot\phi = (1+\frac{6.6\times10^{-34} }{9.1\times10^{-31}\times3\times10^{8}\times0.5\times10^{-9}  })\tan\frac{134 }{2}

\cot\phi=2.37

\phi = 22.90°

The resistance of the light bulb changed as the voltage (and current) changed. Why does this resistance change occur?
Murrr4er [49]
This resistance current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance. In other words, as the voltage increases, so does the current. Hope this helps !!
