the law of reflection states that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. define the angle of incidence in terms of a line normal to the surface.

Your science teacher brings in a speaker to talk to your class about climate change. during the session, students ask a few questions. which questions are related to the current evidence on climate change

Gravity is pulling an object into the sun. the closer the object gets to the sun, the greater the gravitational force that acts on the object, increasing its acceleration. a line graph plotting the speed of the object against time would have which shape? a: straight line of positive slope b: curved line that slopes upward c: curved line that slopes downward d: straight line of negative slope

Aspring has a relaxed length of 33 cm (0.33 m) and its spring stiffness is 6 n/m. you glue a 76 gram block (0.076 kg) to the top of the spring, and push the block down, compressing the spring so its total length is 15 cm. you make sure the block is at rest, then at time t=0 you quickly move your hand away. the block begins to move upward, because the upward force on the block by the spring is greater than the downward force on the block by the earth. calculate y vs. time for the block during a 0.09-second interval after you release the block, by applying the momentum principle in three steps each of 0.03-second duration.
