A car moving at 30 miles/hour has roughly 100,000 J of kinetic energy. You need to keep your foot on the gas to maintain your speed (assume a flat road). The gas you burn represents 500 J of chemical energy every second.

a. After 5 minutes, how much energy have you generated by burning gasoline?
b. How much kinetic energy does your car have at this time?
c. If this number is not 100,000 J, explain why. If this number is 100,000 J, explain what happened to the extra energy you calculated in part a.

Which explanation is true about what happens to a ray of light when it strikes a mirror? a. a light ray is transmitted toward a mirror at a certain angle. the light ray is then reflected by the mirror at an equal angle but in the opposite direction of the transmitted ray. b. an incident ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line perpendicular to the mirror. the light ray is then reflected at an angle equal to the angle of incidence but on the opposite side of the perpendicular line. c. a reflecting ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line perpendicular to the mirror. the light ray is then refracted at an angle equal to the angle of the reflecting ray and on the same side of the perpendicular line. d. an incident ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line parallel to the mirror. the light ray is then transmitted at an angle equal to the angle of incidence but on the opposite side of the parallel line. you so much! : -d take the time to try and answer correctly.
