Answer:

The escape velocity on the planet is approximately 178.976 km/s

Explanation:

The escape velocity for Earth is therefore given as follows

The formula for escape velocity, v_e, for the planet is v_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \cdot G \cdot m}{r} }

Where;

v_e = The escape velocity on the planet

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²

m = The mass of the planet = 12 × The mass of Earth, M_E

r = The radius of the planet = 3 × The radius of Earth, R_E

The escape velocity for Earth, v_e_E, is therefore given as follows;

v_e_E = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \cdot G \cdot M_E}{R_E} }

\therefore v_e = \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times 12 \times M}{3 \times R} } =  \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times 4 \times M}{R} } = 16 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{2 \times G \times M}{R} } = 16 \times v_e_E

v_e = 16 × v_e_E

Given that the escape velocity for Earth, v_e_E ≈ 11,186 m/s, we have;

The escape velocity on the planet = v_e ≈ 16 × 11,186 ≈ 178976 m/s ≈ 178.976 km/s.

When the mirror is rotated, the normal will turn as well, but will the incident Ray and reflected ray turn?
Inessa [10]

When a mirror is rotated . . .

-- The incident ray doesn't turn.  It's just the line from the source to the mirror. 
It would be there, in the same place, even if there was no mirror.

-- The normal turns.  It's the line perpendicular to the mirror, so it must turn
with the mirror.

-- Since the normal tuns and the incident ray doesn't, the angle between them
must change.  And since the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of
the incident ray, the reflected ray must also turn.
