Answer:

1. The image of the person is 1.41 m, virtual and formed at the back of the surface of the globe.

2. The person's image is 3.38 m tall.

Explanation:

From the given question, object distance, u = 0.75 m, object height = 1.8 m, radius of curvature of the reflecting globe, r = 8 cm = 0.08 m.

f = \frac{r}{2} = \frac{0.08}{2} = 0.04 m

1. The image distance, v, can be determined by applying mirror formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{0.04} = \frac{1}{0.75} + \frac{1}{v}

\frac{4}{100} - \frac{75}{100} = \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{v} = \frac{4 - 75}{100}

  = - \frac{71}{100}

⇒ v = -\frac{100}{71}

      = - 1.41 m

The image of the person is 1.41 m, virtual and formed at the back of the surface of the globe.

2.  \frac{image distance}{object distance} = \frac{image height}{object height}

  \frac{1.41}{0.75} = \frac{v}{1.8}

v = \frac{2.538}{0.75}

  = 3.384

v = 3.38 m

The person's image is 3.38 m tall.

Answer:

Same, the electric fields point in opposite directions and therefore cancel at some midpoint.

Explanation:

The Electric field net at some point between them is zero, only if they point in opposite direction (they cancel to the each other). In order the electric fields  have opposite direction, at some point between the bees , the bees must have the same sign of electric charge

A Explain why the sound produced by the horn of an approaching car
aleksklad [387]
When a car approaches you, the sound waves that reach you have a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency. You hear a sound with a higher pitch. When the car moves away from you, the sound waves that reach you have a longer wavelength and lower frequency.

?? ⬇️

An approaching source moves closer during period of the sound wave so the effective wavelength is shortened, giving a higher pitch since the velocity of the wave is unchanged. Similarly the pitch of a receding sound source will be lowered.

The Doppler effect is an effect observed in light and sound waves as they move toward or away from an observer. One simple example of the Doppler effect is the sound of an automobile horn. Picture a person standing on a street corner. A car approaches, blowing its horn.

Comparing two waves of the same wavelength, a higher frequency is associated with faster movement. Comparing two waves of different wavelengths, a higher frequency doesn't always indicate faster movement, although it can. Waves of different wavelengths can have the same frequency.

The pitch of a sound is our ear's response to the frequency of sound. Whereas loudness depends on the energy of the wave. ... The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency while loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of sound waves.
