Answer:

a shiny smooth leaf

Explanation:

A shiny smooth leaf will cause specular reflection. Other choices will cause diffused reflection from the surface.

A specular reflection is similar to how a mirror or smooth surface reflects. The incident light is given off as a single ordered reflection from the surface of a body.

For this to occur, the surface incident must be smooth and without rough patterns on it.

A path way with rough rocks, small patch of soil and rough logs will give off diffused reflection

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Change, or increase, the buoyant force.

Explanation:

As the salt water of the sea is denser than the river's fresh water, the boat will rise when entering the sea from the river and sink (to increase the buoyant force) when entering the river from the sea.

What is the purpose of a heat pump?
VikaD [51]

The heat pump is a thermal machine that takes heat from a cold space and transfers it to a hotter one thanks to a work provided from the outside, that is, it does exactly the same as the refrigerating machine, the only thing that changes is the objective (In the refrigerating machine the objective is to cool and keep the cold space cold. The heat pump, however, aims to provide heat and keep the hot space warm)

Therefore the correct answer is A. <em>A heat pump uses work to transfer energy by heat from a colder environment to a warmer environment.</em>

Answer:

1. G.P.E = 24 J

2. center of mass

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2kg

Height, h = 1.2m

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 N/kg or m/s².

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where;

  • G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
  • h represents the height measured in meters.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

G.P.E = 2*1.2*9.8

G.P.E = 23.52 to 2 S.F = 24 Joules.

Translation kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a system due to the motion of the system’s center of mass. The center of mass is typically where the mass of the object or particle is concentrated.

What is dispersion, and how is it related to diffraction and refraction?
iragen [17]
Refraction is simply the bending of light when it moves from one material into another. If light is beamed at 90° to a surface, no bending happens. But if you shine the light at an angle it will bend one way or another.
   
    Diffraction is a process in which a beam of light travels through a gap or around a barrier, and spreads out as a result.

<span>   Dispersion is the property that the speed of light in a transparent material is different for different wavelengths. Thus the index of refraction is likewise different.</span>

The coefficients of friction between the load and the flatbed trailershown are μs = 0.40 and μk = 0.30. Knowing that the speed o
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

50.97 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of truck

\mu_s = Coefficient of static friction = 0.4

v = Final velocity = 0

u = Initial velocity = 72 km/h = \dfrac{72}{3.6}=20\ \text{m/s}

s = Displacement

Force applied

F=ma

Frictional force

f=\mu_s mg

Now these forces act opposite to each other so are equal. This is valid for the case when the load does not slide

ma=\mu_s mg\\\Rightarrow a=\mu_s g\\\Rightarrow a=0.4\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow a=3.924\ \text{m/s}^2

Since the obect will be decelerating the acceleration will be -3.924\ \text{m/s}^2

From the kinematic equations we have

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0^2-20^2}{2\times -3.924}\\\Rightarrow s=50.97\ \text{m}

So, the minimum distance at which the car will stop without making the load shift is 50.97 m.
