Answer:

The image will form at distance d = 7.75 cm from the mirror

Explanation:

As we know that the bulb is placed at 15 cm distance from the concave mirror

Then the image will form at distance d = 8.9 cm

now we have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_0} = \frac{1}{f}$

so we have

$\frac{1}{8.9} + \frac{1}{15} = \frac{1}{f}$

$f = 5.58 cm$

Now when bulb is placed at distance 20 cm from the mirror

then again we have

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_0} = \frac{1}{f}$

$\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{20} = \frac{1}{5.58}$

now we have

$d_i = 7.75 cm$

6. Two light bulbs are designed for use at 120 V and are rated at 75 W and 150 W. Which light bulb has the greater filament resi

Nonamiya [84]

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

P is power
R is resistance

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}$

Hence

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto V$

$\\ \bull\tt\longrightarrow R\propto \dfrac{1}{P}$

Therefore if power is low then resistance will be high.

The first bulb has less power hence it has greater filament resistance.

Please help on this one?

kupik [55]

Answer: A)30V. First find the current of the circuit. I=V/R(total resistance). So I=60/120=0.5. Now to find voltage drop in R3 use ohms law as given. V(of 3)=(0.5)(60)=30V

astronauts in space cannot weigh themselves by standing on a bathroom scale. Instead, they determine their mass by oscillating o

devlian [24]

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) 63.83 kg

(b) 0.725 m/s

Explanation:

The given query seems to be incomplete. Below is the attachment of the full question is attached.

The given values are:

T = 3 sec

k = 280 N/m

(a)

The mass of the string will be:

⇒ $T=2 \pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

or,

⇒ $m=\frac{k T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{280\times (3)^2}{4 \pi^2}$

⇒ $=\frac{280\times 9}{4\times (3.14)^2}$

⇒ $=68.83 \ kg$

(b)

The speed of the string will be:

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}k(0.4)^2=\frac{1}{2}k(0.2)^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

then,

⇒ $v=\sqrt{\frac{k((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{m} }$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280\times ((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280(0.16-0.04)}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280\times 0.12}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=0.725 \ m/s$

antsy andy tries to push his 6kg desk away from him and finds that it takes him 12 N of force to start the desk from rest and 8

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

static coefficient = 0,203 & kinetic coefficient = 0,14

Explanation:

There are two (2) conditions, when the desk is about to move and when the desk is moving. In the attachements you can see the two free body diagram for each condition.

In the first condition, there is no movement and the force is 12 N, in the image we can see the total forces are equal to 0 and by the definition of the friction force we can get the static friction coefficient.

In the second condition there is movement in the direction of the force which is equal to 8 N, again by the definition of the friction force we can get the kinetic friction coefficient. Since the desk is moving with constant velocity there is not acceleration.

Galileo held that measurements of time were _____ and that measurements of distance were ______. absolute; relative

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

the correct answer is option A

The given blanks in the question will be filled with Absolute and relative receptively.

time is absolute means the numerical representation of time example 12:00 pm is absolute time.

Measurement of distance is relative. A relative distance is one which is represented with the reference of some other place, it is not an exact value.
