Answer:

well, during reflection

angle of incident is equal to angle of reflection so if angles of incident is 23° , then angle of reflection is also equal to 23° .

so the total angle between the reflected and incident ray will be equal to angle of incidence plus angle of reflection

i.e. angle i + angle r = 23° + 23° = 46°

hence the required angle is 46°

<em>i</em><em> </em><em>hope</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>helped</em><em> </em><em>.</em>

amid [387]

Let m₁ = 3.0 kg and v₁ = + 8 m/s (so right is positive), and m₂ = 1.0 kg and v₂ = 0. The total momentum of the two balls before and after collision is conserved, so

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₁v₁' + m₂v₂'

where v₁' = + 5 m/s and v₂' are the velocities of the two balls after colliding, so

(3.0 kg) (8 m/s) = (3.0 kg) (5 m/s) + (1.0 kg) v₂'

Solve for v₂' :

24 kg•m/s = 15 kg•m/s + (1.0 kg) v₂'

(1.0 kg) v₂' = 9 kg•m/s

v₂' = (9 kg•m/s) / (1.0 kg)

v₂' = + 9 m/s

which is to say, the second ball is given a speed of 9 m/s to the right after colliding with the first ball.
