The Earth is a sphere is a statement to describe a scientific law
Answer:
<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>
<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>
Explanation:
Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft
difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft
a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.
According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,
your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>
b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.
the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,
the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,
therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>
The first thing you should know for this case is the definition of distance.
d = v * t
Where,
v = speed
t = time
We have then:
d = v * t
d = 9 * 12 = 108 m
The kinetic energy is:
K = ½mv²
Where,
m: mass
v: speed
K = ½ * 1500 * (18) ² = 2.43 * 10 ^ 5 J
The work due to friction is
w = F * d
Where,
F = Force
d = distance:
w = 400 * 108 = 4.32 * 10 ^ 4
The power will be:
P = (K + work) / t
Where,
t: time
P = 2.86 * 10 ^ 5/12 = 23.9 kW
answer:
the average power developed by the engine is 23.9 kW
Answer:
10 years
Explanation:
As you can understand from the question it is given that the planet is already filled to half of its capacity. Also the population doubles in 10 years. To fill up the planet completely the population needs to double only once. To do that only 10 years are required.
As it is mentioned there are no other factors affecting the growth rate, in 10years the planet will be filled to its carrying capacity.
Answer:
T = 20.84°C
Explanation:
From the law of conservation of energy:
Heat Lost by Copper Block = Heat Gained by Aluminum Calorimeter + Heat Gained by Water

where,
= mass of copper = 227 g
= mass of water = 844 g
= mass of aluminum = 155 g
= specific heat capacity of calorimeter = 385 J/kg.°C
= specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg.°C
= specific heat capacity of aluminum = 890 J/kg.°C
= change in temperature of copper = 283°C - T
= change in temperature of water = T - 14.6°C
= change in temperature of aluminum = T - 14.6°C
T = equilibrium temperature = ?
Therefore,

<u>T = 20.84°C</u>
