<span>The answer is letter C.

Reflecting telescopes are more powerful than refracting telescopes. These are also called as reflectors which serves an optical telescope that uses a single or combination of curved mirrors. These mirrors then reflect light and form an image. It is designed for very large diameter objects and are mostly considered as major telescopes in the field of astronomy. They were used as an alternative for refracting telescopes during the 17th century because they suffer less chromatic aberrations than a refracting telescope does. <span>

A plane is flying east when it drops some supplies to a designated target below. The supplies land after falling for 10 seconds.

Ivanshal [37]

Part 1)

here we know that supply took 10 s to reach the ground

so here we will have

$y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$y = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 10^2$

$y = \frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 100$

$y = 490 m$

Part 2)

Here all the supply covered horizontal distance of 650 m in 10 s interval of time

so here we can say

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$v = \frac{650}{10}$

$v = 65 m/s$

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Reflective

Explanation:

The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;

$P_{abs}= \frac{I}{C}$

and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;

$P_{ref}= \frac{2I}{C}$

Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.

How much thermal energy is created when a 3000 kg suv brakes to a stop from 20 m/s on a level road?

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

b. 600,000 J

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of energy,

The thermal energy created = Kinetic energy of the suv.

Q' = 1/2(mv²)............... Equation 1

Where Q' = Thermal energy, m = mass of the suv, v = velocity of the suv.

From the question,

Given: m = 3000 kg, v = 20 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q' = 1/2(3000×20²)

Q' = 600000 J

Hence the right option is b. 600,000 J
