"Suppose a horizontal laser beam is reflected off a plane mirror that is perfectly smooth and flat. At first, the mirror is angl

ed upward at 4 degrees, measured from the vertical. Then, the angle of the mirror is changed to 6 degrees upward. How would the angle formed by the incoming laser beam and the reflected laser beam change

Answer:

The angle in between changed from 8 to 12 degrees

Explanation:

Solution:-

Angle between the incoming and reflected beam is always twice that of the inclination of the mirror.

Initially, Inclination angle θ = 4 degrees

             Angle between incident and reflected beam is twice of the inclination of mirror. Hence,

            Φ = 2*θ = 2*4 = 8 degrees.

Change, Inclination angle θ = 6 degrees

             Angle between incident and reflected beam is twice of the inclination of mirror. Hence,

            Φ = 2*θ = 2*6 = 12 degrees.

- The angle formed by the incoming laser beam and the reflected laser beam will change from 8 degrees to 12 degrees.

It is definitely letter D. <span>A1 and B1 are like poles, but there is not enough information to tell whether they are north poles or south poles.

A1 and B1 is either both north poles or both south poles. Repulsion of both magnets says it all--like poles always repel while opposite poles always attract. Thus, the best conclusion to this would be choice D.</span>

A force of 200 N is applied on small piston of a pascal press. What would be the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N

Explanation:

Given;

force applied on small piston, F₁ = 200 N

diameter of the small piston, d₁ = 4.37 cm

radius of the small piston, r₁ = d₁/2 = 2.185 cm

Area of the small piston, A₁ = πr₁² = π(2.185 cm)² = 15 cm²

Area of the big piston, A₂ = 98 cm²

The pressure of the piston is given by;

P = \frac{F}{A} \\\\\frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\\ F_2 = \frac{F_1A_2}{A_1}

Where;

F₂ is the force on big piston

F_2 = \frac{200*98}{15} \\\\F_2 = 1306.67 \ N

Therefore, the force applied on the big piston is 1306.67 N
