Answer:
Reflective
Explanation:
The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;

and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;

Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.
ANSWER
T₂ = 10.19N
EXPLANATION
Given:
• The mass of the ball, m = 1.8kg
First, we draw the forces acting on the ball, adding the vertical and horizontal components of each one,
In this position, the ball is at rest, so, by Newton's second law of motion, for each direction we have,

The components of the tension of the first string can be found considering that they form a right triangle, where the vector of the tension is the hypotenuse,

We have to find the tension in the horizontal string, T₂, but first, we have to find the tension 1 using the first equation,

Solve for T₁,

Now, we use the second equation to find the tension in the horizontal string,

Solve for T₂,

Hence, the tension in the horizontal string is 10.19N, rounded to the nearest hundredth.

COMPLETE QUESTION
A spring stretches by 0.018 m when a 2.8-kg object is suspended from its end. How much mass should be attached to this spring so that its frequency of vibration is f = 3.0 Hz?
Explanation:
Given that,
Extension of spring
x = 0.0208m
Mass attached m = 3.39kg
Additional mass to have a frequency f
Let the additional mass be m
Using Hooke's law
F= kx
Where F = W = mg = 3.39 ×9.81
F = 33.26N
Then,
F = kx
k = F/x
k = 33.26/0.0208
k = 1598.84 N/m
The frequency is given as
f = ½π√k/m
Make m subject of formula
f² = ¼π² •(k/m
4π²f² = k/m
Then, m4π²f² = k
So, m = k/(4π²f²)
So, this is the general formula,
Then let use the frequency above
f = 3Hz
m = 1598.84/(4×π²×3²)
m = 4.5 kg
Answer:
The change on the second particle is
.
Explanation:
The period of revolution of the particle in the magnetic field is given by the formula as follows :

It is given that the magnetic field is uniform. The mass of the second particle is the same as that of a proton but thecharge of this particle is different from that of a proton.

If both particles take the same amount of time to go once around their respective circles. So,

So, the change on the second particle is
.
