Answer:

C) 10 cm

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the focal length of the mirror.

object distance u = 20 cm ( negative )

Image distance v = 12 cm ( negative )

using mirror formula

1/ v + 1 /u = 1/ f

-1/12  - 1/ 20 =1/ f

f =- 7.5 cm

In the second case

u = - 30 cm

f = - 7.5 cm

i / v + 1 / u = 1 / f

1 / v - 1/30 = - 1/ 7.5

v = -10 cm

Answer is C that is 10 cm

An object is moving in a straight line along the y axis. As a function of time, its position is given by the equation y=3.0+4.8x
romanna [79]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>Instant Velocity and Acceleration </u>

Give the position of an object as a function of time y(x), the instant velocity can be obtained by

v(x)=y'(x)

Where y'(x) is the first derivative of y respect to time x. The instant acceleration is given by

a(x)=v'(x)=y''(x)

We are given the function for y

y(x)=3.0+4.8x +6.4x^2

Note we have changed the last term to be quadratic, so the question has more sense.

The velocity is

v(x)=y'(x)=4.8+12.8x

And the acceleration is a(x)=v'(x)=12.8

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, what do you need to do
Alexxandr [17]

If you increase the mass of an object and want to move an object a specific distance, then you need to do extra work than the earlier

<h3>What is work done?</h3>

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

Work Done = Force * Displacement

For example, let us suppose a force of 10 N is used to displace an object by a displacement of 5 m then the work done on the object can be calculated by the above-mentioned formula

work done = 10 N ×5 m

                 =50 N m

Thus, when an object's mass is increased and it is desired to move it a certain distance, more work must be done than previously.

Commercials for a toy bouncy ball advertise that it will bounce to a height that is greater than the
storchak [24]

Answer:

because energy will be lost due to friction, sound, and heat (arguably similar to friction) and ENERGY MUST STAY THE SAME so it is IMPOSSIBLE for the ball to bounce higher than when dropped!

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards
