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!

A man at point A directs his rowboat due north toward point B, straight across a river of width 100 m. The river current is due

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1.35208 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of the boat = 0.75 m/s

Distance between the shores = 100 m

Time = Distance / Speed

$Time=\frac{100}{0.75}=133.33\ s$

Time taken by the boat to get across is 133.33 seconds

Point C is 150 m from B

Speed = Distance / Time

$Speed=\frac{150}{\frac{100}{0.75}}=1.125\ m/s$

Velocity of the water is 1.125 m/s

From Pythagoras theorem

$c=\sqrt{0.75^2+1.125^2}\\\Rightarrow c=1.35208\ m/s$

So, the man's velocity relative to the shore is 1.35208 m/s

If you were in charge of designing a wire to carry electricity across your city, state or province, which of

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Thin, aluminium and buried underground.

Explanation:

When it comes to electrification of a state or province, some characteristics of the wire to use must be considered. This would help to minimize and avoid power loss and wire burns.

i. The wire to use should be thin, and a quite number can be twisted one against the other so as to increase the surface area for heat dissipation.

ii. Aluminium wire is more preferable for this project. It has a high melting point, and reduces energy loss.

iii. Burying the wire underground through an insulator is the best choice, though expensive but would preserve the wire from external influence.
