Los Angeles lies on the Pacific plate, San Francisco lies on the North American plate, and the meeting point of the two cities is mathematically given as

T = 120 x 105 years

<h3>What is the meeting point of the two plates?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Distance is mathematically given as

D = Rate x Time

Therefore

T = D/R

T = (600 x 105) / 5

T = 120 x 105 years

In conclusion, the meeting point of the two plates will be

T = 120 x 105 years

the focal length of a simple magnifier is 8.50 cmcm . assume the magnifier to be a thin lens placed very close to the eye.
Igoryamba

When the object is at the focal point the angular magnification is 2.94.

Angular magnification:

The ratio of the angle subtended at the eye by the image formed by an optical instrument to that subtended at the eye by the object when not viewed through the instrument.

Here we have to find the angular magnification when the object is at the focal point.

Focal length = 6.00 cm

Formula to calculate angular magnification:

Angular magnification = 25/f

                                            = 25/ 8.5

                                             = 2.94

Therefore the angular magnification of this thin lens is 2.94

A bowling ball that has a radius of 11.0 cm and a mass of 5.00 kg rolls without slipping on a level lane at 2.80 rad/s.
NemiM [27]

Answer:

\dfrac{K_t}{K_r}=\dfrac{5}{2}

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bowling ball, m = 5 kg

Radius of the ball, r = 11 cm = 0.11 m

Angular velocity with which the ball rolls, \omega=2.8\ rad/s

To find,

The ratio of the translational kinetic energy to the rotational kinetic energy of the bowling ball.

Solution,

The translational kinetic energy of the ball is :

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}m(r\omega)^2

K_t=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 5\times (0.11\times 2.8)^2

The rotational kinetic energy of the ball is :

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}I \omega^2

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\times \omega^2

K_r=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}\times 5\times (0.11)^2\times (2.8)^2

Ratio of translational to the rotational kinetic energy as :

\dfrac{K_t}{K_r}=\dfrac{5}{2}

So, the ratio of the translational kinetic energy to the rotational kinetic energy of the bowling ball is 5:2

Two blocks are connected by a light weight, flexible cord that passes over a frictionless pulley.Ifm1=2 kg and m2 = 3 kg, and bl
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

t = 1.41 sec.

Explanation:

If we assume that the acceleration of the blocks is constant, we can apply any of the kinematic equations to get the time since the block 2 was released till it reached the floor.

First, we need to find the value of  acceleration, which is the same for both blocks.

If we take as our system both blocks, and think about the pulley as redirecting the force simply (as tension in the strings behave like internal forces) , we can apply Newton's 2nd Law, as they were moving along the same axis, aiming at opposite directions, as follows:

F = m₂*g - m₁*g = (m₁+m₂)*a (we choose as positive the direction of the acceleration, will be the one defined by the larger mass, in this case m₂)

⇒ a = (\frac{(m₂-m₁)}({m₁+m₂} * g = g/5 m/s²

Once we got the value of a, we can use for instance this kinematic equation, and solve for t:

Δx = 1/2*a*t² ⇒ t² = (2* 1.96m *5)/g = 2 sec² ⇒ t = √2 = 1.41 sec.
