Answer:
The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection.
Explanation:
Reflection is the phenomenon that occurs when a ray of light hits the boundary between two media and it is reflected back into the first medium.
In such a situation, we call:
- angle of incidence: it is the angle between the direction of the incident ray and the normal to the surface
- angle of reflection: it is the angle between the direction of the reflected ray and the normal to the surface
There is a precise relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection. In fact, the Law of Reflection states that:
- The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the surface all lie within the same plane
- The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence
<h2>
Answer: C) It's a high-pressure zone with sinking air</h2>
Explanation:
The intertropical convergence zone is the region of the terrestrial globe where the trade winds of the northern hemisphere converge with those of the southern hemisphere.
It is characterized by being <u>a belt of low pressure</u> and inconsistent location around the equator constituted by ascending air currents, where large masses of warm and humid air converge from the north and south of the intertropical zone.
The reason of its inconsistent location is due to the movements of the Earth with the seasons, having as a consequence the amount variation of heat energy from the sun in this region.
Answer:
The engine would be warm to touch, and the exhaust gases would be at ambient temperature. The engine would not vibrate nor make any noise. None of the fuel entering the engine would go unused.
Explanation:
In this ideal engine, none of these events would happen due to the nature of the efficiency.
We can define efficiency as the ratio between the used energy and the potential generable energy in the fuel.
n=W, total/(E, available).
However, in real engines the energy generated in the combustion of the fuel transforms into heat (which heates the exhost gases, and the engine therefore transfering some of this heat to the environment). Also, there are some mechanical energy loss due to vibrations and sound, which are also energy that comes from the fuel combustion.
A graph of real speed can have a section that's as steep as you want,
but it can never be a perfectly vertical section.
Any vertical line on a graph, even it it's only a tiny tiny section, means
that at that moment in time, the speed had many different values.
It also means that the speed took no time to change from one value to
another, and THAT would mean infinite acceleration.
