Answer:
<h2>a) 50°</h2><h2>b) 40°</h2>
Explanation:
Check the complete diagram n the attachment below
a) The angle of incidence on a plane surface is the angle between the incidence ray and the normal ray acting on a plane surface. The normal ray is the ray perpendicular to the surface while the incidence ray is the ray striking a plane surface.
According to the diagram, the angle of reflection r₂ on M₂ is 90°-g where g is the angle of glance.
Given angle of glance on M₂ to be 40°, r₂ = 90-40 = 50°
According the second law of reflection, the angle of incidence = angle of reflection, therefore i₂ = r₂ = 50° (on M₂)
Also ∠OO₂O₁ = ∠OO₁O₂ = 40° (angle of glance on M₁){alternate angle}
The angle of incidence on M₁ = 90° - 40° = 50°
b) The angle of incidence to the surface of M₁(∠PO₁A)will be the angle of glance on M₁ which is equivalent to 40°
Answer:
A boat travels for three hours with a... A boat travels for three hours with a current of 3 mph and then returns the same distance against the current in four hours. What is the boat's speed in still water?
Explanation:
Answer:
The ratio is 9.95
Solution:
As per the question:
Amplitude, 
Wavelength, 
Now,
To calculate the ratio of the maximum particle speed to the speed of the wave:
For the maximum speed of the particle:

where
= angular speed of the particle
Thus

Now,
The wave speed is given by:

Now,
The ratio is given by:
