Answer:

80 angle of reflection!

Explanation:

Because it is a flat, smooth surface it will reflect like that of a normal plane mirror, so the angle of reflection will be equal to that of the angle of incidence!

Hope this helps you understands!

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

30 degrees

Explanation:

Reflects off of mirror 1  at   60 degrees....this makes it incident to second mirror at 30 degrees ....then angle of reflection equals this angle of incidence = 30 degrees

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

given data

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thick = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

air temperature = 15°C

to find out

time required after impact for a puck to lose 10%

solution

we know velocity varies here 0 to v

we consider here initial velocity = v

so final velocity = 0.9v

so change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

and shear stress acting on surface is here express as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

so

= µ  \frac{v}{h}   ............1

put here value

= 1.75×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

and

area between air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area  =  \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

so

force on puck is express as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v    

and now apply newton second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

t =  \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

time = 2.18

so time required after impact for a puck is 2.18 seconds

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: 8400 J

Explanation:

The formula referenced in the question is:

Q=m. c. \Delta T  

Where:

Q  is the thermal energy

m=100g \frac{1 kg}{1000 g}=0.1 kg is the mass  of the water sample

c=4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C}  is the specific heat capacity of  water

\Delta T=20\°C  is the variation in temperature

Solving:

Q=(0.1 kg)(4200 \frac{J}{kg\°C})(20\°C)  

Q=8400 J  This is the thermal energy released
