A flat circular mirror of radius 0.100 m is lying on the floor. Centered directly above the mirror, at a height of 0.920 m, is a

small light source. Calculate the diameter of the bright circular spot formed on the 2.70 m high ceiling by the light reflected from the mirror.

Answer:

the diameter of the bright circular spot formed is 0.787 m  

Explanation:

Given that;

Radius of the flat circular mirror = 0.100 m

height of small ight source = 0.920 m

high ceiling = 2.70 m  

now;

Diameter(mirror) = 2×r = 2 × 0.100 = 0.2 m

D(spot) = [Diameter(mirror) × ( 2.70m + 0.920 m)] /  0.920 m

so

D(spot) = 0.2m × 3.62m /  0.920 m

D(spot) = 0.724 m / 0.920 m

D(spot) = 0.787 m  

Therefore, the diameter of the bright circular spot formed is 0.787 m

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The answer is  "-72 k".

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Given point:

A=(0,0,0)\\B=(0,8,0)\\C=(9,8,0)\\D=(9,0,0)

\bar{AB} = (0i+8j+0k)-(0i+0j+0k)= 8j\\\\\bar{AC} = (9i+8j+0k)-(0i+0j+0k)= 9i+8j\\\\

Calculating the area:

Area=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\0&8&0\\9&8&0\end{array}\right|

       =i[8(0)-8(0)]-j[(0-0)]+k[(0-9(8))]\\\\=i[0-0]-j[(0)]+k[(0-72)]\\\\=i[0]-j[(0)]+k[(-72)]\\\\=-72 \ k

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

6.5646\times 10^{16}~ \text{Hz}

Explanation:

\text{Frequency,}~ f= \dfrac{c}{\lambda} = \dfrac{3\times 10^8 }{4.57 \times 10^{-9}} = 6.5646\times 10^{16}~ \text{Hz}

A quantity of gas is contained in a sealed container of fixed volume. The temperature of the
Alchen [17]

Answer:

If the Kelvin temperature of a gas is increased, the volume of the gas increases. This can be understood by imagining the particles of gas in the container moving with a greater energy when the temperature is increased.

Explanation:

If you heat a gas you give the molecules more energy so they move faster. This means more impacts on the walls of the container and an increase in the pressure. Conversely if you cool the molecules down they will slow and the pressure will be decreased.

To calculate a change in pressure or temperature using Gay Lussac's Law.
