PLZ ANSWER ASAP IF YOU KNOW THIS...At the county fair, Carrie and Sam climbed up on the carousel horses. Around and around they

went; the horses also bobbed up and down. When they got off of the carousel, Carrie told Sam they had been accelerating during their ride. Sam disagreed; they had been moving at a constant speed. Whose response is fully correct, and why?
A) Carrie is, because the carousel changed speed when it started and stopped. B) Sam is, because the horses never moved from their position on the carousel. C) Carrie is, because velocity includes speed plus direction, and both changed. D) Sam is, they did not accelerate since their speed remained constant for the ride.

When an object is placed 30.0 cm in front of a concave mirror, a real image is formed 60.0 cm
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i = (i + o) / o * 1

f = o * i / (o + i) = 60 * 30 / (60 + 30) = 1800 / 90 = 20 cm

Both the object and image are in positive space for a mirror

A low orbit satellite at 100 km altitude had a camera that resolved a car location to within 0.3 meter. Find the minimum diamete
NeX [460]

Answer:

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Explanation:

y = Resolve distance = 0.3 m

h = Height of satellite = 100 km

λ = Wavelength = 550 nm

Angular resolution

tan\theta\approx \theta =\frac{y}{h}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0.3}{100\times 10^3}=3\times 10^{-6}

From Rayleigh criteria

sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{550\times 10^{-9}}{sin3\times 10^{-6}}=0.2236\ m=22.4\ cm

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

Relation between resolvable feature, focal length and angular resolution

d=f\Delta \theta\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{d}{\Delta \theta}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{3\times 10^{-6}}=3\ m=300\ cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm
