Annual salary(2012) = $70,000

Annual inflation = 7%

Therefore, the salary you need to earn in 2020 in order to have the same purchasing power can be calculated below

2020-2012=8\text{ years}FV=PV\times(1+r)^n

where

n = 8

r = 7/100 = 0.07

PV = 70, 000

\begin{gathered} FV=70,000(1+0.07)^8 \\ FV=70000(1.07)^8 \\ FV\text{ = 70000}\times1.71818617983 \\ FV=120273.032588 \\ FV=\text{  \$}120,273.03 \end{gathered}

The salary you need to earn in 2020 to have the same purchasing power = $120, 273.03

Determine the image distance and image height for a 5.00 cm tall object placed 30.0 cm from a double convex lens with a focal le
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The image distance is 30 cm

image height = - 5 cm

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the image distance is expressed as

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

From the information given,

u = 30

f = 15

By substituting these values into the formula,

1/15 = 1/30 + 1/v

1/v = 1/15 - 1/30 = (2 - 1)/30 = 1/30

Taking the reciprocal of both sides,

v = 30

The image distance is 30 cm

magnification = image height/object height = - v/u

Given that object height = 5 cm, then

image height/5 = - 30/30 = - 1

image height = - 5 * 1

image height = - 5 cm

Which of the following statements is correct?
Mumz [18]

Answer: c. Generally, metals are ductile.

Explanation:

From the options given in the question, the correct statement is that"Generally, metals are ductile.

Ductility of a metal simply means that a metal can be plastically deform before it is then fractured. It implies that metals can be drawn to thin wires. The only exception we have in this case is mercury.

Confirm if this is correct or not. If it isn't correct, please correct it.
kow [346]

Answer:

d = 421.83 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height, h = 396.9 m

Horizontal speed, v = 46.87 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled by the ball horizontally. Let t is the time taken by the ball. Using second equation of motion for vertical direction. So,

396.9=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 t^2\\\\t=9\ s

Now d is the distance covered by the cannonball. So,

d=vt\\\\d=46.87\times 9\\\\d=421.83\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
