Answer:

B. because they cannot make light rays converge

Explanation:

When parallel beam of light incident of the plane mirror or convex mirror then light rays are reflected by the surface of mirror in such a way that it will not meet at any point of after the reflection.

So here the converging point of light rays are virtual point and hence we will say that its focal length is virtual focal length.

So here correct answer would be

B. because they cannot make light rays converge

A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 + 1.00 ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative to
ryzh [129]

Answer:

a. The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²

The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²

b. -9.19° = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis

Explanation:

The initial velocity v₁ of the fish is v₁ = 4.00i + 1.00j m/s. Its final velocity after accelerating for t = 19.0 s is v₂ =  17.0i - 1.00j m/s

a. The acceleration a = (v₂ - v₁)/t = [17.0i - 1.00j - (4.00i + 1.00j)]/19 = [(17.0 -4.0)i - (-1.0 -1.0)j]/19 = (13.0i - 2.0j)/19 = 0.68i - 0.11j m/s²

The horizontal component of acceleration a₁ = 0.68 m/s²

The vertical component of acceleration a₂ = -0.11 m/s²

b. The direction of the acceleration relative to the unit vector i,

tanθ = a₂/a₁ = -0.11/0.68 = -0.1618

θ = tan⁻¹(-0.1618) = -9.19° ⇒ 360 + (-9.19) = 350.81° from the the positive x-axis

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Ramen Noodles and boxed Macaroni and Cheese are COMPLEMENTARY Goods

Explanation:

Complementary Goods are goods that are demanded jointly (together) to satisfy a particular want.

Ramen Noodles, Boxed Macaroni, Cheese are demanded together by off campus college students. So, they are complementary goods.

Also, their demand are directly related - demand of one good increases, demand of other good increases & demand of one good decreases , demand of other good decreases ; because they are demanded together.

After school end , consumption of all goods declining together - is also their characteristic pointing towards them being Complementary Goods .

A spherical balloon is being inflated and the radius of theballoon is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/s.(A) Express the radius (r)
goblinko [34]

Answer:

A.) r = 2t

B.) V = 33.5t^3

Explanation:

Given that a spherical balloon is being inflated and the radius of the balloon is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/s

A) Express the radius (r) of the balloon as a function of the time (t).

Since the rate = 2 cm/s that is,

Rate = radius/ time

Therefore,

2 = r/t

Make r the subject of formula

r = 2t

(B) If V is the volume of the balloon as a function of the radius, find V or and interpret it.

Let assume that the balloon is spherical. Volume of a sphere is;

V = 4/3πr^3

Substitute r = 2t into the formula

V = 4/3π(2t)^3

V = 4/3π × 8t^3

V = 32/3 × πt^3

V = 33.5t^3

An astronaut has a mass of 50.0 kg on earth. what is her mass on the moon, where gravity is 1 6 that on earth?
never [62]

I believe the correct gravity on the moon is 1/6 of Earth. Take note there is a difference between 1 6 and 1/6.

HOWEVER, we should realize that the trick here is that the question asks about the MASS of the astronaut and not his weight. Mass is an inherent property of an object, it is unaffected by external factors such as gravity. What will change as the astronaut moves from Earth to the moon is his weight, which has the formula: weight = mass times gravity.

<span>Therefore if he has a mass of 50 kg on Earth, then he will also have a mass of 50 kg on moon.</span>
