The rays __________
a. will not cross each other after reflecting from a concave mirror.
b. will cross at the center of curvature.
c. will cross at the point where the principal axis intersects the mirror.
d. will cross at the focal point. will cross at a point beyond the center of curvature.

A concave mirror is an example of curved mirrors. So that the appropriate answer to the given question is option D. The rays will cross at the focal point.

A concave mirror is a type of mirror in which its inner part is the reflecting surface, while its outer part is the back of the mirror.  This mirror reflects all parallel rays close to the principal axis to a point of convergence. It can also be referred to as the converging mirror.

In this type of mirror, all rays of light parallel to the principal axis of the mirror after reflection will cross at the focal point.

Therefore, the required answer to the given question is option D. i.e The rays will cross at the focal point.

A small, 300 g cart is moving at 1.20 m/s on an air track when it collides with a larger, 2.00 kg cart at rest?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m_1 = 300\ g = 0.3\ kg

Initial speed of the cart, u_1=1.2\ m/s

Mass of the larger cart, m_2 = 2\ kg

Initial speed of the larger cart, u_2=0

After the collision,

Final speed of the smaller cart, v_1=-0.81\ m/s (as its recolis)

To find,

The speed of the large cart after collision.

Solution,

Let v_2 is the speed of the large cart after collision. It can be calculated using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2

v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2}

v_2=\dfrac{0.3\times 1.2+0-0.3\times (-0.81)}{2}

v_2=0.301\ m/s

So, the speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

Answer:

Magnitude of static friction force is 70 sin40° = 44.99 N.  

No, it is not necessary that it is maximum static friction.

Normal force is equal to 70 cos40° = 53.62 N.

Explanation:

We apply newton law of moton equation along the plane and perpendicular to plane;

Along the plane,

70 sin 40° = f_{r}  ---------------(1)

70 cos 40° = N --------------(2)

f_{r}_{max} = μN -----------------(3)

So, it depends on the value of μ that the friction is maximum or not .
