Explanation:

Height of the light bulb, h = 4.75 cm

Distance between the light bulb and the concave mirror, u = -33.2 cm

Focal length of the mirror, f = -28.2 cm (negative always)    

Let v is the distance between the image and the light bulb. It can be calculated as :

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-28.2}-\dfrac{1}{-33.2}  

v = -187.24 cm

So, the image distance from the mirror is 187.24 cm.  

The magnification of the mirror is given by :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

or

m=\dfrac{h'}{h}, h' is the size of image  

\dfrac{-v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}

\dfrac{-(-187.24)}{-33.2}=\dfrac{h'}{4.75}              

h = -26.78 cm

So, the height of the image is 26.78 cm and it is inverted. Hence, this is the required solution.

The image distance can be determined using the mirror equation: 1/f = 1/d_o + 1/d_i, where, f is the focal length, d_o is the object distance, and d_i is the image distance. Given that f = 28.2 and d_o = 33.2 cm, the value of d_i is calculated to be 187.248 cm. On the other hand, the image height is obtained using the magnification equation wherein, h_i/h_o = -d_i/d_o, where h_i is the image height and h_o is the object height. Using the given values, h_i is equal to -26.79 cm. Note that the negative sign indicates that the image is inverted.

What does the rotational speed of the ring module have to be so that an astronaut standing on the outer rim of the ring module f
Usimov [2.4K]

Complete question:

In the movie The Martian, astronauts travel to Mars in a spaceship called Hermes. This ship has a ring module that rotates around the ship to create “artificial gravity” within the module. Astronauts standing inside the ring module on the outer rim feel like they are standing on the surface of the Earth. (The trailer for this movie shows Hermes at t=2:19 and demonstrates the “artificial gravity” concept between t= 2:19 and t=2:24.)

Analyzing a still frame from the trailer and using the height of the actress to set the scale, you determine that the distance from the center of the ship to the outer rim of the ring module is 11.60 m

What does the rotational speed of the ring module have to be so that an astronaut standing on the outer rim of the ring module feels like they are standing on the surface of the Earth?

Answer:

The rotational speed of the ring module have to be 0.92 rad/s

Explanation:

Given;

the distance from the center of the ship to the outer rim of the ring module r, = 11.60 m

When the astronaut standing on the outer rim of the ring module feels like they are standing on the surface of the Earth, then their centripetal acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity of Earth.

Centripetal acceleration, a = g = 9.8 m/s²

Centripetal acceleration, a = v²/r

But v = ωr

a = g = ω²r

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}} = \sqrt{\frac{9.8}{11.6} } = 0.92 \ rad/s

Therefore, the rotational speed of the ring module have to be 0.92 rad/s
