Answer to Problem 1Q
The law of conservation of energy is used when there is no non-conservative force on the system, the law of conservation of linear momentum is used when there is only internal force which does not affect the system and the law of conservation of angular momentum is used when there is no external torque on the system.
Explanation of Solution
The law of conservation of energy explains that energy never is created nor destroyed. It only changes from one form to other form of energy. The law of conservation of energy is used when there is no non-conservative force on the system. Non-conservative force is dispersing
The law of conservation of linear momentum explains that the momentum of the system is conserved when there is no external force is applied to the system. This law of conservation of linear momentum is applicable when there is only internal force which does not affect the system.
The law of conservation of angular momentum explains that the angular momentum of the system is conserved when the external torque is not applied to the system. This law of conservation of angular momentum is applicable when there is no external torque on the system.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the law of conservation of energy is used when there is no non-conservative force on the system, the law of conservation of linear momentum is used when there is only internal force which does not affect the system and the law of conservation of angular momentum is used when there is no external torque on the system.

- How can i solve this if n1 (refractive index of gas) and n2 (refractive index of plastic) is not known. And the brewsters angle isn't knownarrow_forward2. Consider the situation described in problem 1 where light emerges horizontally from ground level. Take k = 0.0020 m' and no = 1.0001 and find at which horizontal distance, x, the ray reaches a height of y = 1.5 m.arrow_forward2-3. Consider the situation of the reflection of a pulse at the interface of two string described in the previous problem. In addition to the net disturbances being equal at the junction, the slope of the net disturbances must also be equal at the junction at all times. Given that p1 = 4.0 g/m, H2 = 9.0 g/m and Aj = 0.50 cm find 2. A, (Answer: -0.10 cm) and 3. Ay. (Answer: 0.40 cm)please I need to show all work step by step problems 2 and 3arrow_forward
- look at answer show all work step by steparrow_forwardLook at the answer and please show all work step by steparrow_forward3. As a woman, who's eyes are h = 1.5 m above the ground, looks down the road sees a tree with height H = 9.0 m. Below the tree is what appears to be a reflection of the tree. The observation of this apparent reflection gives the illusion of water on the roadway. This effect is commonly called a mirage. Use the results of questions 1 and 2 and the principle of ray reversibility to analyze the diagram below. Assume that light leaving the top of the tree bends toward the horizontal until it just grazes ground level. After that, the ray bends upward eventually reaching the woman's eyes. The woman interprets this incoming light as if it came from an image of the tree. Determine the size, H', of the image. (Answer 8.8 m) please show all work step by steparrow_forward
