Answer:
Incident ray
Explanation:
"To describe the reflection of light, we will use the following terminology. The incoming light ray is called the incident ray. The light ray moving away from the surface is the reflected ray. The most important characteristic of these rays is their angles in relation to the reflecting surface."

Answer is
9.773m/s^2
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given,
h=8848m
The value of sea level is 9.08m/s^2. So, Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on Mount Everest.
g′=g(1 − 2h/h)
=9.8(1 - 6400000/17696)
=9.8(1 − 0.00276)
9.8×0.99724
=9.773m/s^2
Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s^2

hope this helps :)
First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force,

. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:

Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:

where

is the final speed of the skier and

is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
