A weight would be least affected since it would fall striaght down if it was say paper it would go down slower because it has more air resistance due to less weight

A spherical mirror gives an image magnified 5 times at a distance 5 m. determine whether the mirror is convex or concave? How mu

irakobra [83]

Answer:

1. Concave mirror.

2. 4.17 m or 417 cm.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Object distance (u) = 5 m

Magnification (M) = 5

Focal length (f) =..?

1. Identification of the mirror.

To determine whether or not the mirror is concave or convex, we must first of all calculate the image distance.

This can be obtained as follow:

Object distance (u) = 5 m

Magnification (M) = 5

Image distance (v) =.?

Magnification (M) = image distance (v) /object distance (u).

M = v/u

5 = v/5

Cross multiply

v = 5 x 5

v = 25 m

Since the image distance obtained is positive, the mirror is said to be a concave mirror.

2. Determination of the focal length of the mirro.

This can be obtained as follow:

Object distance (u) = 5 m

Image distance (v) = 25 m

Focal length (f) =...?

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

1/f = 1/25 + 1/5

1/f = 0.04 + 0.2

1/f = 0.24

Cross multiply

f x 0.24 = 1

Divide both side by 0.24

f = 1/0.24

f = 4.17 m

Converting the focal length of cm, we have:

1 m = 100 cm

Therefore, 4.17 m = 4.17 x 100 = 417 cm

Therefore, the focal length of the mirror is 4.17 or 417 cm.

A rock is thrown from a height of 2.0 m at a window that is located 9.0 m above the ground. The initial velocity of the rock is

ELEN [110]

Answer:

The value is $x = 11.81 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height is h = 2.0 m

The height of the window is $d = 9.0 \ m$

The initial velocity of the rock is $u = 20 \ m/s$

The angle at which it is thrown is $\theta = 40$

Generally the vertical component of the velocity of the stone is mathematically represented as

$v_y = 20 sin (40)$

=> $v_y = 12.86 \ m/s$

Generally the height of the window from the ground is mathematically represented as using kinematic equation as

$d = h + v_yt + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

=> $9 = 2 +12.86 t + \frac{1}{2} * - 9.8 t^2$

Here g is negative -9.8 m/s^2 because the direction of the stone is against gravity

$4.9 t^2 -12.86 t + 7 =0$

Solving this quadratic equation using quadratic formula we obtain

t = 0.770 s

Generally the velocity of the stone on the x axis is mathematically represented as

$v_x = 20 * cos(40 )$

=> $v_x = 15.32 \ m/s$

Generally the distance between the person throwing the rock and the window is mathematically represented as

$x = v_x * t$

=> $x = 15.32 * 0.771$

=> $x = 11.81 \ m$

Which group of theorists believe that we should study only what we can directly observe and measure?

mote1985 [20]

Learning Through Observation

Albert Bandura believed that associations and direct reinforcements simply could not account for all learning. "Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do," he famously wrote in his 1977 book Social Learning Theory.

Instead, he proposed that much of learning takes place through observation. Children observe the actions of those around them, particularly caregivers and siblings, and then imitate these behaviors. In his well-known Bobo doll experiment, Bandura revealed just how easily children could be led to imitate even negative actions. Children who watched a video of an adult beating up a large inflatable doll were then much more likely to copy those same actions when given a chance.

Perhaps most importantly, Bandura noted that learning something does not necessarily result in a change in behavior. Children frequently learning new things through observation, but might not engage in such behaviors themselves until there is actually a need or motivation to utilize the information.
