The magnification <u>is 31.16.</u>

Magnification is the process of increasing the apparent size of something rather than its physical size. This increase is quantified by a calculated number, also called the "factor". If this number is less than 1, it means size reduction, sometimes called size reduction or reduction.

u =  -19.3

f = -18.7 cm.

m = f/f-u

    = -18.7/-18.7 +19.3

   <u>= 31.16</u>

The term magnification refers to the size of the image produced by the lens compared to the size of the object. For lenses: Magnification "m" is the ratio of image height to object height. The magnification of a lens is defined as the ratio of image height to object height. It is also given by image distance and object distance. equal to the ratio of image distance to object distance.

(1 point) A frictionless spring with a 3-kg mass can be held stretched 1.6 meters beyond its natural length by a force of 90 new
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

x(t)=0.337sin((5.929t)

Explanation:

A frictionless spring with a 3-kg mass can be held stretched 1.6 meters beyond its natural length by a force of 90 newtons. If the spring begins at its equilibrium position, but a push gives it an initial velocity of 2 m/sec, find the position of the mass after t seconds.

Solution. Let x(t) denote the position of the mass at time t. Then x satisfies the differential equation  

m \frac{d^{2}x}{dt^{2}} +kx=0

Definition of parameters  

m=mass 3kg

k=force constant

e=extension ,m

ω =angular frequency

k=90/1.6=56.25N/m

ω^2=k/m= 56.25/1.6

ω^2=35.15625

ω=5.929

General solution will be

x(t)=c1cos(ωt)+c2Sin(ωt)

x(t)=c1cos(5.929t)+c2Sin(5.929t)

differentiating x(t)

dx(t)=-5.929c1sin(5.929t)+5.929c2cos(5.929t)

when x(0)=0, gives c1=0

dx(t0)=2m/s gives c2=0.337

Therefore, the position of the mass after t seconds is  

x(t)=0.337sin((5.929t)

A certain instant camera determines the distance to the subject by sending out a sound wave and measuring the time needed for th
valentinak56 [21]
The total distance covered by the sound wave is twice the distance between the camera and the subject (because the wave has to reach the subject and then travel back to the camera), so 2L, where L=3.42 m. The speed of sound is v=343 m/s. It is a uniform linear motion, so we can use the basic relationship between space (S), time (t) and velocity (v) to find the time the wave needs to return to the camera:
t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{2L}{v}= \frac{2\cdot 3.42 m}{343 m/s}=0.020 s

In general, if a sound has intensity of β dB at 1 m from the source, at what distance from the source would the decibel level de
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: The required distance is given by

r_2=1\text{ m}\cdot 10^\frac{\beta}{20}.

Explanation: The sound intensity in dB is given by the formula

\beta \text{ dB}=10\log\frac{I}{I_0}

where I_0 is the hearing threshold in absolute units and I is the absolute intensity of the sound which depends on the distance. In general, for two distances r_1 and r_2 we have that

\frac{I(r_1)}{I(r_2)}=\frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}=\left(\frac{r_2}{r_1}\right)^2.

Now let us take r_1=1\text{ m} and let r_2 be the required distance. We have

\beta \text{ dB}=10\log\frac{I(r_1)}{I_0},\quad 0\text{ db}=10\log\frac{I(r_2)}{I_0}.

Exponentiating these equations we obtain

10^{\frac{\beta}{10}}=\frac{I(r_1)}{I_0},\quad 10^0=1=\frac{I(r_2)}{I_0}.

Dividing them

\frac{I(r_1)}{I(r_2)}=10^\frac{\beta}{10}.

Using the previously stated identity

\frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}=10^\frac{\beta}{10}\Rightarrow r_2=r_110^\frac{\beta}{20}=1\text{ m}\cdot 10^\frac{\beta}{10}

Now if we use the given example where \beta=11 we have

r_2=1\text{ m}\cdot 10^{\frac{11}{20}}=3.55\text{ m}.
