a light beam that hits a mirror at an angle of 36°... what is the Angle of Incidence? Angle of Reflection?

Kipish [7]

Angle of incidence is 36° and so is the reflection. Both angles are equal.

The process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position is called.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Mutation is the process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position

Any change in the structure of a gen or in the usual DNA sequence of a cell is called mutation. It can be caused by mistakes during cell division when the DNA is copied or by the exposure to DNA damaging agents in the environment like UV light or cigarette smoke, and may be transmitted to subsequent generations.

A mutation is a permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of an organism, virus or other genetic elements.

There are three types of mutations:

Base substitutions
Deletions
Insertions

<h3>What is DNA?</h3>

The Deoxyribonucleic acid, also called DNA, is the hereditary material that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of humans and almost all other organisms. DNA is made of nucleotides.

In the parts that follow select whether the number presented in statement A is greater than, less than, or equal to the number p

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

a) Therefore 2.6km is greater than 2.57km.

Statement A is greater than statement B.

b) Therefore 5.7km is equal to 5.7km

Statement A is equal to statement B

Explanation:

a) Statement A : 2.567km to two significant figures.

2.567km 2. S.F = 2.6km

Statement B : 2.567km to three significant figures.

2.567km 3 S.F = 2.57km

Therefore 2.6km is greater than 2.57km.

Statement A is greater than statement B.

b) statement A: (2.567 km + 3.146km) to 2 S.F

(2.567km + 3.146km) = 5.713km to 2 S.F = 5.7km

Statement B : (2.567 km, to two significant figures) + (3.146 km, to two significant figures).

2.567km to 2 S.F = 2.6km

3.146km to 2 S.F = 3.1km

2.6km + 3.1km = 5.7km

Therefore 5.7km is equal to 5.7km

Statement A is equal to statement B

A 0.500-kg glider, attached to the end of an ideal spring with force constant undergoes shm with an amplitude of 0.040 m. comput

Nikitich [7]

There is a missing data in the text of the problem (found on internet):
"with force constant<span> k=</span>450N/<span>m"

a) the maximum speed of the glider

The total mechanical energy of the mass-spring system is constant, and it is given by the sum of the potential and kinetic energy:
</span> $E=U+K= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
<span>where
k is the spring constant
x is the displacement of the glider with respect to the spring equilibrium position
m is the glider mass
v is the speed of the glider at position x

When the glider crosses the equilibrium position, x=0 and the potential energy is zero, so the mechanical energy is just kinetic energy and the speed of the glider is maximum:
</span> $E=K_{max} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2$
<span>Vice-versa, when the glider is at maximum displacement (x=A, where A is the amplitude of the motion), its speed is zero (v=0), therefore the kinetic energy is zero and the mechanical energy is just potential energy:
</span> $E=U_{max}= \frac{1}{2}k A^2$
<span>
Since the mechanical energy must be conserved, we can write
</span> $\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2 = \frac{1}{2}kA^2$
<span>from which we find the maximum speed
</span> $v_{max}= \sqrt{ \frac{kA^2}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{(450 N/m)(0.040 m)^2}{0.500 kg} }= 1.2 m/s$
<span>
b) </span><span> the </span>speed<span> of the </span>glider<span> when it is at x= -0.015</span><span>m

We can still use the conservation of energy to solve this part.
The total mechanical energy is:
</span> $E=K_{max}= \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J$
<span>
At x=-0.015 m, there are both potential and kinetic energy. The potential energy is
</span> $U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(450 N/m)(-0.015 m)^2=0.05 J$
<span>And since
</span> $E=U+K$
<span>we find the kinetic energy when the glider is at this position:
</span> $K=E-U=0.36 J - 0.05 J = 0.31 J$
<span>And then we can find the corresponding velocity:
</span> $K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.31 J}{0.500 kg} }=1.11 m/s$
<span>
c) </span><span>the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the glider;
</span>
For a simple harmonic motion, the magnitude of the maximum acceleration is given by
$a_{max} = \omega^2 A$
where $\omega= \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }$ is the angular frequency, and A is the amplitude.
The angular frequency is:
$\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{450 N/m}{0.500 kg} }=30 rad/s$
and so the maximum acceleration is
$a_{max} = \omega^2 A = (30 rad/s)^2 (0.040 m) =36 m/s^2$

d) <span>the </span>acceleration<span> of the </span>glider<span> at x= -0.015</span><span>m

For a simple harmonic motion, the acceleration is given by
</span> $a(t)=\omega^2 x(t)$
<span>where x(t) is the position of the mass-spring system. If we substitute x(t)=-0.015 m, we find
</span> $a=(30 rad/s)^2 (-0.015 m)=-13.5 m/s^2$
<span>
e) </span><span>the total mechanical energy of the glider at any point in its motion. </span><span>

we have already calculated it at point b), and it is given by
</span> $E=K_{max}= \frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2= 0.36 J$
