Applications Of Reflection Of Light

When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.

Sign Convention for Mirrors

A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

2) A 100 g cart initially moving at +0.5 m/s collides inelastically with a stationary 180 g cart. The two carts stick together after the collision and move as one. a) Using the fact that total momentum is conserved, calculate the final velocity of the two carts (which are magnetically attached to each other) after the collision. (Start this by first calculating the total momentum, which initially is simply the momentum of the 100g cart.) b) Calculate the total initial kinetic energy. (This is the sum of the initial kinetic energies of both carts.) c) Calculate the total final kinetic energy. d) Calculate the change in the total kinetic energy as a result of the collision.
Two particles are moving along x-axis. Particle 1, has a mass of m, and a velocity of v = +4.6 m/s. Particle 2, has a mass of m, and a velocity of v, = -6.1 m/s.

In a very busy off-campus eatery one chef sends a 211 g broccoli-tomato-pickle-onion-mushroom pizza sliding down the counter from left to right at 1.69 m/s. Almost simultaneously, the other chef launches a 345 g veggieburger (with everything, but hold the horseradish) along the same counter from right to left at 2.37 m/s. The two delicacies collide head on at the given speeds. The counter is practically friction free due to accumulated grease. The two delicacies merge into a single, unbelievably savory serving. In what direction does the merged meal move, if it moves at all? to the right to the left does not move At what speed does it move? Enter a positive number. speed: m/s
Three objects undergo successive inelastic collisions. Object A, of mass 400 grams travels east at a velocity of 2.30 m/s towards object B of mass 250 grams which is also travelling east but with a velocity of 1.40 m/s. A and B collide and then undergo a second collision with object C, mass 300 grams travelling at velocity u. Calculate what the velocity of object C is, assuming that after the second collision event all objects come together as one with a common velocity of 0.100 m/s westwards. (Note for your answer, velocities east are positive, velocities west are negative.)
