Kyle lays a mirror flat on the floor and aims a laser at the mirror. The laser beam reflects off the mirror and strikes an adjacent wall. The plane of the incident and reflected beams is perpendicular to the wall. The beam from the laser strikes the mirror at a distance a=60.1 cm from the wall. The reflected beam strikes the wall at a height b=31.3 cmabove the surface of the mirror.Find the angle of incidence θiat which the laser beam strikes the mirror.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

62.5 °

Explanation:

✓From law of reflection, angle of incidence equals angles of reflection .

✓the angle between the reflected ray can be determined using trigonometry, we know that

horizontal distance x =60.1 cm

the vertical distance is y =31.3

Then

tan( θ) =( y / x)

If we substitute the values we have,

tan θ = 31.3 / 60.1

θ = tan⁻¹ (0.5208)

θ = 27.5°

This angle is been measured using x-axis (horizontal)BBut in optics we can measured with respect to y-axis then angle becomes

θ = 90 - 27.5

θr = 62.5 °

θr = θi= 62.5°

the angle of incidence θiat which the laser beam strikes the mirror is 62.5°

Answers

Answer:

PE = 0.73J

Explanation:

Remember that in conservative spring systems,

Total energy = potential + kinetic energy.

On the y-axis lies the kinetic energy and the question asks for the potential energy.

PE + KE must always equal the same result.

In this case, KE + PE = 1

So rearranging the equation,

PE = 1 - KE

KE = 0.27 (as we can see from the graph)

Therefore,

PE = 1 - 0.27 = 0.73J

Bonus tip: The graphs of potential and kinetic energy will look the exact opposite in this case. When the KE graph is at 0J, the PE graph is at 1J and vice versa. And they always cross over at 0.5J

Answer:

   ΔT = [tex]\frac{\Delta K}{(m_1+m_2) c_e }[/tex]    

Explanation:

This is an interesting problem, no data is given, so the result is a general expression.

Suppose that the disks are initially rotating with angular velocity w₁ and w₂, as well as that they have radii r₁ and r₂ and masses m₁ and m₂

we start the problem finding odl final angular velocity of the discs together, for this we define a system formed by the two discs, in this case the torques during the collision are internal and the angular momentum is conserved

       

initial instant. Just before the crash

           L₀ = L₁ + L₂

with

           L₁ =  I₁ w₁

the moment of inertia of a disc with an axis passing through its center is

           I₁ = ½ m₁ r₁²

we substitute

           I₀ = ½ m₁ r₁² w₁ + ½ m₂ r₂² w₂

final instant. Right after the crash

         L_f = I w

     

in angular momentum it is a scalar quantity, so it is additive

         I = I₁ + I₂

angular momentum is conserved

         L₀ = L_f

         I₁ w₁ + I₂ w₂ = I w

         w =  [tex]\frac{ I_1 w_1 + I_2 w_2 }{I}[/tex]            (1)

We already have the angular velocities of the system, let's find the kinetic energy of it

initial

          K₀ = K₁ + K₂ = ½ I₁ w₁² + ½ I₂ w₂²

final

          K_f = K = ½ I w²

the variation of the kinetic energy is the loss in the increase of the temperature of the system, they indicate us that we neglect the other possible losses

         ΔK = K_f -K₀

         ΔK = ½ I w² - (½ I₁ w₁² + ½ I₂ w₂²)           (2)

In this chaos we know all the values ​​for which the numerical value of ΔK can be calculated, the symbolic substitution gives expressions with complicated

Now if all this variation of energy turns into heat

         Q = ΔK

         m_{total} c_e ΔT = ΔK

where the specific heat of the bear discs must be known, suppose they are of the same material

         ΔT = [tex]\frac{\Delta K}{(m_1+m_2) c_e }[/tex]               (3)

to make a special case, we suppose some data

the discs have the same mass and radius, disc 2 is initially at rest and the discs are made of bronze that has c_e = 380 J / kg ºC

we look for the angular velocity

          I₁ = I₂ = I₀

          I = 2 I₀

         

we substitute in 1

           w = [tex]\frac{I_o w_1 + I_o 0 }{2I_o}[/tex] I₀ w₁ + I₀ 0 / 2Io

           w = w₁ /2

we look for the variation of the kinetic energy with 2

       

             ΔK = ½ (2I₀) (w₁ /2)² - (½ I₀ w₁² + ½ I₀ 0)

             ΔK = ¼ I₀ w₁² -½ I₀ w₁²

             ΔK = - ¼ I₀ w₁²

the negative sign indicates that the kinetic energy decreases

We look for the change in Temperature with the expression 3

              ΔT = [tex]\frac{ \Delta K}{(m_1 +m_2) c_e}[/tex]ΔK / (m1 + m2) ce

              ΔT = [tex]\frac{ \frac{1}{4} I_o w_1^2 }{ 2m c_e}[/tex]

              ΔT =  [tex]\frac{1}{8} \frac{ (\frac{1}{2} m r_1^2 ) w_1^2 }{ m c_e}[/tex]

              ΔT = [tex]\frac{1}{16} r_1^2 w_1^2 / c_e[/tex]

in this expression all the terms are contained

The increase in internal energy of the disks will be [tex]\rm \triangle E= mc\frac{\triangle k }{(m_1+m_2)c_e}[/tex].

What is internal energy?

The energy contained within a thermodynamic system is known as its internal energy. It's the amount of energy required to build or prepare a system in any given internal state.

The given data in the problem is;

[tex]\rm \omega_1[/tex]  is the angular velocity of  disk 1

[tex]\rm \omega_2[/tex] is the  angular velocity of disk 2

r₁ is the radius of  disk 1

r₂ is the radius of  disk 2

m₁ is the mass of disk 1

m₂ is the mass of disk 2

Momentum before the collision;

[tex]\rm L_1 = I_1 \omega_1[/tex]

The moment of inertia of disc 1

[tex]\rm i_1 = \frac{1}{2} m_1r_1^2[/tex]

The momentum gets conserved;

[tex]\rm L_0 = L_f \\\\ I_1 \omega_1 + I_2\omega_2 = I \omega \\\\ \rm \omega= \frac{I_1 \omega_1 + I_2\omega_2}{I}[/tex]

The change in the kinetic energy is;

[tex]\traingle KE= K_f - K_0 \\\\ \traingle KE= \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2-(\frac{1}{2} I_1\omega_1^2 + (\frac{1}{2} I_2\omega_2^2 )[/tex]

The change in the energy gets converted into heat;

The change in the temperature is

The internal energy change is found by;

[tex]\rm \triangle E = mc_v dt[/tex]

[tex]\rm \triangle E= mc\frac{\triangle k }{(m_1+m_2)c_e}[/tex]

The length of a rod, L = 3 m

The moment of inertia of the rod, I = 12 kg-m²

We need to find the mass of the rod. The moment of inertia of the rod of length L is given by :

[tex]I=\dfrac{ML^2}{12}[/tex]

Where

M is mass of the rod

Explain the changes in arrangement and movement of the particles of the argon as the temperature of the air decreased

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Let us recall that temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.The higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy of the molecules of the body.

As temperature decreases, the kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance also decreases rapidly and the magnitude of intermolecular interaction between molecules of the substance increases.

Hence, as argon gas is cooled from 20°C to -190°C the kinetic energy of the gas molecules decreases an the magnitude of intermolecular interaction increases hence the gas changes into liquid and subsequently changes into a solid at -190°C.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive technique used to stimulate regions of the human brain. A small coil is placed on the scalp, and a brief burst of current in the coil produces a rapidly changing magnetic field inside the brain. The induced emf can be sufficient to stimulate neuronal activity. One such device generates a magnetic field within the brain that rises from zero to 1.2 T in 100 ms. Determine the magnitude of the induced emf within a circle of tissue of radius 1.3 mm and that is perpendicular to the direction of the field.

swimming at 8 m/s, while the small fish has a mass of 1 kg and is swimming at -4 m/s. What is the
velocity of big fish after lunch?

Answers

Answer:

the velocity of the big fish after the launch is 6 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the big fish, m₁ = 5 kg

velocity of the big fish, u₁ = 8 m/s

mass of the small fish, m₂ = 1 kg

velocity of the small fish, u₂ = -4 m/s

Let the final velocity of the big fish after launch = v

Apply the principle of conservation linear momentum;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

5 x 8   + 1 x (-4) = v(5 + 1)

40 - 4 = 6v

36 = 6v

v = 36/6

v =  6 m/s.

Therefore, the velocity of the big fish after the launch is 6 m/s.

m₂ = 0.54 kg

Momentum is conserved (take east to be positive).

Mv = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

5/6 When switched on, the grinding machine accelerates from rest to its operating speed of 3450 rev/min in 6 seconds. When switched off, it coasts to rest in 32 seconds. Determine the number of revolutions turned during both the startup and shutdown periods. Also determine the number of revolutions turned during the first half of each period. Assume uniform angular acceleration in both cases.

Answers

Answer:

Δθ₁ =  172.5 rev

Δθ₁h =  43.1 rev

Δθ₂ =   920 rev

Δθ₂h = 690 rev

Explanation:

Assuming uniform angular acceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the total angle rotated during the acceleration process, from rest to its operating speed:

       [tex]\Delta \theta = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2} (1)[/tex]  

Now, we need first to find the value of  the angular acceleration, that we can get from the following expression:

       [tex]\omega_{f1} = \omega_{o} + \alpha * \Delta t (2)[/tex]

Since the machine starts from rest, ω₀ = 0.We know the value of ωf₁ (the operating speed) in rev/min.Due to the time is expressed in seconds, it is suitable to convert rev/min to rev/sec, as follows:

       [tex]3450 \frac{rev}{min} * \frac{1 min}{60s} = 57.5 rev/sec (3)[/tex]

Replacing by the givens in (2):

       [tex]57.5 rev/sec = 0 + \alpha * 6 s (4)[/tex]

Solving for α:

       [tex]\alpha = \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{57.5 rev/sec}{6 sec} = 9.6 rev/sec2 (5)[/tex]

Replacing (5) and Δt in (1), we get:

       [tex]\Delta \theta_{1} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 36 sec2 = 172.5 rev (6)[/tex]

in order to get the number of revolutions during the first half of this period, we need just to replace Δt in (6) by Δt/2, as follows:

       [tex]\Delta \theta_{1h} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t/2)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 9 sec2 = 43.2 rev (7)[/tex]

In order to get the number of revolutions rotated during the deceleration period, assuming constant deceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation:

       [tex]\Delta \theta = \omega_{o} * \Delta t + \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2} (8)[/tex]

First of all, we need to find the value of the angular acceleration during the second period.We can use again (2) replacing by the givens:ωf =0 (the machine finally comes to an stop) ω₀ = ωf₁ = 57.5 rev/secΔt = 32 s

       [tex]0 = 57.5 rev/sec + \alpha * 32 s (9)[/tex]

Solving for α in (9), we get:

       [tex]\alpha_{2} =- \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{-57.5 rev/sec}{32 sec} = -1.8 rev/sec2 (10)[/tex]

Now, we can replace the values of ω₀, Δt and α₂ in (8), as follows:

        [tex]\Delta \theta_{2} = (57.5 rev/sec*32) s -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(32s)^{2} = 920 rev (11)[/tex]

In order to get finally the number of revolutions rotated during the first half of the second period, we need just to replace 32 s by 16 s, as follows:[tex]\Delta \theta_{2h} = (57.5 rev/sec*16 s) -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(16s)^{2} = 690 rev (12)[/tex]
