It's the angle made by the incident ray when it's perpendicular to the surface. (Perpendicular lines are the lines that form a graph or like a 90-degree angle)
Answer:
The spring constant = 104.82 N/m
The angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s
Explanation:
From the diagram attached below; we use the conservation of energy to determine the spring constant by using to formula:


Also;

Thus;

where;
= deflection in the spring
k = spring constant
b = remaining length in the rod
m = mass of the slender bar
g = acceleration due to gravity


Thus; the spring constant = 104.82 N/m
b
The angular velocity can be calculated by also using the conservation of energy;






Thus, the angular velocity of the bar when θ = 32° is 1.70 rad/s

Answer:
State A = piece of metal; State B = air
Explanation:
For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.
Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape
Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape
Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.
Knowing this State A has to be solid. Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer. Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.
