Answer: A. 12inches

Explanation:

One of the characteristics of an object placed in front of a plane mirror is that the object distance(u) is equal to the image distance(v) no matter the position of the object from the mirror.

Since object distance is 30 inches, the image distance will be 30inches as will i.e u = v

Using the relationship to get the height of the image

v/u = h1/h0

Where h1 is image height and h0 is object height.

h0 = 12inches

Substituting the values given in the formula we have

30/30 = h1/12

h1 = 12inches.

This means that the image produce by the object is also 12inches tall.

Traveling waves are generated on a string fixed at both ends. The string has a length L, a linear mass density m, and a tension
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: d. I or II

Explanation: A traveling wave has speed that depends on characteristics of a medium. Characteristics like linear density (μ), which is defined as mass per length.

Tension or Force (F_{T}) is also related to the speed of a moving wave.

The relationship between tension and linear density and speed is ginve by the formula:

|v|=\sqrt{\frac{F_{T}}{\mu} }

So, for the traveling waves generated on a string fixed at both ends described above, ways to increase wave speed would be:

1) Increase Tension and maintaining mass and length constant;

2) Longer string will decrease linear density, which will increase wave speed, due to their inversely proportional relationship;

Then, ways to increase the wave speed is

I. Using the same string but increasing tension

II. Using a longer string with the same μ and T.

A 87 arrow is fired from a bow whose string exerts an average force of 105 on the arrow over a distance of 75 .
timofeeve [1]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

V^2 = 2AS = 2FS/M

V = sqrt(2FS/M) = sqrt(2*105*.75/.087) = 44.52817783 = 42.5 mps

So the speed of the arrow as it leaves the bow is 42.5 mps.

I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
