A car traveling on a straight road at 15.0 meters per second accelerates uniformly to a speed of 21.0 meters per second in 12.0
oksano4ka [1.4K]
<h2>Option 3,  216 m is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

We have initial velocity, u = 15 m/s

Time, t = 12 seconds

Final velocity, v = 21 m/s

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Substituting

                     21 = 15 + a x 12

                       a = 0.5 m/s²

Now we have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

                           21² = 15² + 2 x 0.5 x s

                            s = 216 m

       Displacement = 216 m

Option 3,  216 m is the correct answer.

A 35-mm single lens reflex (SLR) digital camera is using a lens of focal length 35.0 mm to photograph a person who is 1.80 m tal
olganol [36]

Answer:

a) 35.44 mm

b) 17.67 mm

Explanation:

u = Object distance =  3.6 m

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35 mm

h_u= Object height = 1.8 m

a) Lens Equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{35}-\frac{1}{3600}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{v}=\frac{713}{25200} \\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25200}{713}=35.34\ mm

The CCD sensor is 35.34 mm from the lens

b) Magnification

m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{35.34}{3600}

m=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{35.34}{3600}=\frac{h_v}{1800}\\\Rightarrow h_v=-\frac{35.34}{3600}\times 1800=-17.67\ mm

The person appears 17.67 mm tall on the sensor
