Answer:

20cm

It is one of the characteristics of a plane mirror that, the distance of the plane mirror from the object is equal to its distance from the image. Therefore, given distance between object and mirror = 10cm. Distance between mirror and image = 10cm. Thus, the distance between object and image = 10 + 10 = 20cm.

NeX [460]

Answer:

The transverse displacement is $y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The generally equation for the mechanical wave is

$y(x,t) = Acos (kx -wt)$

The speed of the transverse wave is $v = 8.25 \ m/s$

The amplitude of the transverse wave is $A = 5.50 *10^{-2} m$

The wavelength of the transverse wave is $\lambda = 0540 m$

At t= 0.150s , x = 1.51 m

The angular frequency of the wave is mathematically represented as

$w = vk$

Substituting values

$w = 8.25 * 11.64$

$w = 96.03 \ rad/s$

The propagation constant k is mathematically represented as

$k = \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda}$

Substituting values

$k = \frac{2 * 3.142}{0. 540}$

$k =11.64 m^{-1}$

Substituting values into the equation for mechanical waves

$y(1.51 , 0.150) = (5.50*10^{-2} ) cos ((11.64 * 1.151 ) - (96.03 * 0.150))$

$y(1.51 , 0.150) = 0.055 m$
