1) Solution of the problem using ray diagram (see attachment)

P is the point where the object is located, Q is the point where the image is located, F is the  focal length. Everything is in scale such that 1 small square = 0.10 m. As we can see:

(a) the location of the image (Q) is approximately at 7 small squares from the mirror, so the  distance of the image from the mirror will be between 0.65 m- 0.70m. Its size is a bit more than 1 small square, so it should be between 0.10 m- 0.15 m.

(b) the image is inverted

(c) the image is real, because it is on the same side of the object


2) Solution using mirror equation

(a) We have:
\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}
By using p=2.1 m and f=0.50 m, we find q=0.66 cm, which corresponds to what we found using ray diagrams.

(b) For the magnification, we can use the equation:
M= \frac{h_i}{h_o} = - \frac{q}{p}
where h_i is the size of the image and h_o = 36 cm =0.36 m is the size of the object.
So, we find
M = -\frac{q}{p}= -\frac{0.66 m}{2.1 m}=-0.31
So, the magnification is 0.31 (the negative sign means the image is inverted)

(c) The height of the image is given by the  same equation of step (b):
M= \frac{h_i}{h_o}
So, since M=-0.31 and h_o = 36 cm=0.36 m, we find
h_i = -M h_o = (--0.31)(0.36 m)=-0.11 m=-11 cm
so, the size of the image is 11 cm, and the negative sign means again the image is inverted.

Two workers are sliding 350 kgkg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 390 NN while the
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

\mu_k=0.18

Explanation:

First, we write the equations of motion for each axis. Since the crate is sliding with constant speed, its acceleration is zero. Then, we have:

x: T+F-f_k=0\\\\y:N-mg=0

Where T is the tension in the rope, F is the force exerted by the first worker, f_k is the frictional force, N is the normal force and mg is the weight of the crate.

Since f_k=\mu_k N and N=mg, we can rewrite the first equation as:

T+F-\mu_k mg=0

Now, we solve for \mu_k and calculate it:

\mu_k=\frac{T+F}{mg}\\ \\\mu_k =\frac{220N+390N}{(350kg)(9.8m/s^{2})} =0.18

This means that the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.18.

Mike is standing on the roof of a building looking at the roof of the neighboring building that is 15 meters away and 10 meters
amid [387]

Answer:

Part a)

t = 1.65 s

Part b)

x = 40.4 m

Since the distance of other building is 15 m so YES it can make it to other building

Part c)

v = 27.3 m/s

direction of velocity is given as

[tex]\theta = 26.35 degree

Explanation:

Part a)

acceleration due to gravity on this planet is 3/4 times the gravity on earth

So the acceleration due to gravity on this new planet is given as

a = \frac{3}{4}(9.81)

a = 7.36 m/s^2

now the vertical displacement covered by the canister is given as

y = 10 m

now by kinematics we have

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

10 = \frac{1}{2}(7.36)t^2

t = 1.65 s

Part b)

Horizontal speed of the canister is given as

v_x = 24.5 m/s

now the distance moved by it

x = v_x t

x = 24.5 (1.65)

x = 40.4 m

Since the distance of other building is 15 m so YES it can make it to other building

Part c)

Final velocity in X direction will remains the same

v_x = 24.5 m/s

final velocity in Y direction

v_y = v_i + at

v_y = 0 + (7.36)(1.65)

v_y = 12.14 m/s

now magnitude of velocity is given as

v = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}

v = \sqrt{24.5^2 + 12.14^2}

v = 27.3 m/s

direction of velocity is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{v_y}{v_x}

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{12.14}{24.5}

[tex]\theta = 26.35 degree
