D

Because if an object is moving at a constant speed the force of friction must equal the applied (horizontal) force, and for it to be accelerating or decelerating, the force of friction and the applied force must be unequal

For what angle of incidence at the first mirror will this ray strike the midpoint of the second mirror (which is s=29.0cm long)
Lesechka [4]

The question is missing a diagram of the ray reflection. I attached a diagram which comes from a similar question in the answer section. The full question should be as follows:

Two plane mirrors intersect at right angles. A laser beam strikes the first of them at a point d = 10.0cmfrom their point of intersection, as shown in the figure. For what angle of incidence at the first mirror will this ray strike the midpoint of the second mirror (which is s=29.0cm long) after reflecting from the first mirror?

Answer:

34.6°

Explanation:

To strike the midpoint of the second mirror, the ray light will have to travel half of the distance vertically

i.e. 29/2 = 14.5

We can solve this through trigonometry.

Let the angle between the ray and the vertical plane mirror is known as α

tan α = 10/14.5

α = tan^{-1} (10/14.5) = 34.6°

The angle of incidence is the angle between the ray and the normal line of the mirror.

Let angle of incidence of first mirror be β

β = α = 34.6

A spelunker is surveying a cave. She follows a passage that takes her a distance 184 m straight west, then a distance 220 m in a
Sever21 [200]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

Define the unit vector i to point in the eastern direction, and the unit vector j to point in the northern direction.

The first distance is 184 m west. It is represented by
d₁ = -184 i

The second distance is 220 m at 30° south of east. It is
d₂ = 220(cos 30° i - sin 30° j) = 190.53 i - 110 j

The third distance is 104 m at 80 east of north. It is
d₃ = 104(sin 80° i + cos 80° j) =  102.42 i + 18.06 j

Let the fourth distance be 
d₄ = a i + b j

Because the traveler ends back at the original position, the vector sum of the distances is zero. It means that each component of the vector sum is zero.

The x-component yields
-184 + 190.53 + 102.42 + a = 0
a = -108.95

The y-component yields
0 - 110 + 18.06 + b = 0
b = 91.94

The magnitude of the fourth displacement is
√[(-108.95)² + 91.94² ] = 142.56 m

The direction is at an angle θ north of west, given by
θ = tan⁻¹ (91.94/108.95) = 40.2°

Answer:
The fourth displacement has a magnitude of 142.56 m. It is about 40° north of west.

To win a prize at the county fair, you're trying to knock down a heavy bowling pin by hitting it with a thrown object. Should yo
Setler [38]

Answer:

Being an elastic object, rubber ball will be an ideal choice as it will bounce off the bowling pit and will experience a large change in momentum in comparison with the beanbag which will either slow down or come to a halt upon hitting a bowling pit. That is why rubber ball will experience a greater impulse and the bowling pin will experience the negative impulse of the rubber ball.

For Rubber Ball

Upon elastic collision it will reverses the direction and move with velocity equal or less then original

change in momentum = P

P = m(v_{f} -v_{i})\\v_{f}=-v_{i} \\  P = -2mv_{i}

For Beanbag

value of impulse will large if velocity is zero.

v_{f}=0\\ P = -mv_{i}

The vapor pressure of diethyl ether (ether) is 463.57 mm Hg at 25°C. How many grams of chlorophyll, C55H72MgN4O5, a nonvolatile,
mixer [17]

Answer:

29.4855 grams of chlorophyll

Explanation:

From Raoult's law

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 457.45 mmHg ÷ 463.57 mmHg = 0.987

Mass of solvent (diethyl ether) = 187.4 g

MW of diethyl ether (C2H5OC2H5) = 74 g/mol

Number of moles of solvent = mass/MW = 187.4/74 = 2.532 mol

Let the moles of solute (chlorophyll) be y

Total moles of solution = moles of solute + moles of solvent = (y + 2.532) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.987 = 2.532/(y + 2.532)

y + 2.532 = 2.532/0.987

y + 2.532 = 2.565

y = 2.565 - 2.532 = 0.033

Moles of solute (chlorophyll) = 0.033 mol

Mass of chlorophyll = moles of chlorophyll × MW = 0.033 × 893.5 = 29.4855 grams
