It is because, "Right reflecting" when it hits the textbook's surface, that's why we can see it!!

Hope this helps!

The block in the figure below has a mass of 5.1 kg and it rests on an incline of angle . You pull on the rope with a force F = 3
viktelen [127]

42.9°

Explanation:

Let's assume that the x-axis is aligned with the incline and the positive direction is up the incline. We can then apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;F - mg\sin{\theta} = 0\;\;\;\;

\Rightarrow mg\sin{\theta} = F

Note that the net force is zero because the block is moving with a constant speed when the angle of the incline is set at \theta. Solving for the angle, we get

\sin{\theta} = \dfrac{F}{mg}

or

\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{F}{mg}\right)

\;\;\;=  \sin^{-1}\left[\dfrac{34\:\text{N}}{(5.1\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}\right]

\;\;\;=42.9°

A thermally isolated system is made up of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper; the aluminum and the copper are in
butalik [34]

Answer:

copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

Explanation:

Hot piece of copper is made in contact with cold piece of aluminium

So here thermal energy transfer will take place from copper to aluminium

so by energy conservation we can say that heat given by copper is same as the heat absorbed by aluminium.

now we have

m_1s_1\Delta T_1 = m_2s_2\Delta T_2

here we know that

s_1 = specific heat capacity of copper

s_2 = specific heat capacity of aluminum

given that specific heat capacity of aluminium is more than double that of copper

so we can say

s_2 = 2s_1

so here if the mass of copper and aluminium is same then

\Delta T_1 = 2 \Delta T_2

so temperature change of copper is twice the temperature change of aluminium

So copper will have more change in temperature as compare with aluminum

The specific heat of a metal or any element or compound can be determined using the formula Cp = delta H / delta T / mass. delta pertains to change. That is change in enthalpy and change in temperature. From the given data, Cp is equal to 343 cal per (86-19) c per 55 grams. This is equal to 0.093 cal / g deg. Celsius

In both a dry cell and a wet cell battery, what causes the production of an electrical current.
koban [17]

Answer:

a. chemical reaction

Explanation:

In both a dry and wet cell battery, electric currents are produced through chemical reactions.

Both cells are together called electrochemical cells.

  • In these cells, chemical reactions produce an electric current.
  • They are devices that converts chemical energy into electrical energy
  • The reactions here are spontaneous redox reactions.
  • This causes the current to flow on their own in the circuit.
