v0_newFlow

Answer»


Solution : `L_(H)=L_(V)=L`
`L_(H)=1,L_(V)=1+0.51=1.51`
`h_(H)=h_(V)=H`
`(L)/(E)=(l)/(h)`
`E=(Lxxh)/(l)`
`(E_(H))/(E_(V))=(L_(H))/(L_(V))XX(h_(H))/(h_(V))xx(l_(V))/(l_(H))`
`=(L)/(L)xx(h)/(h)xx(1.5l)/(l)`

A cockroach is flying towards a plane mirror in perpendicular direction with a velocity of 4 mm s^(1) . Find the speed of its image in the mirror and also find out the angle of incidence , angle of reflection and angle of deviation.

Answer»


Solution :`V_(C)=4 "MM" s^(-1)`
Speed of the image of COCKROACH is equal to the spped of cockroach.
Image speed =4` mm s^(1)`
As its is approcahing the MIRROR perpendicularly , its angle of incidence=angle of reflection =ZERO
Angle of deviation `=180-2i`
`""=180-0`
`""=180^(@)`
