Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown in the figure below.
h =  height of the kite above ground.

By definition, the angle of elevation is
cos \theta = \frac{30}{50} =0.6
Therefore
\theta = cos^{-1} 0.6 = 53.1 \, deg.

Answer: 53° (nearest integer)

Using Mirror equation A, Calculate The Frequency Of The Long Stand And The Shortest Wave Length Of That An Object Is Placed Of A
Leya [2.2K]

The Image distance and Magnification of The Image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length of the lens, which is often expressed in millimeters, is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus.

Given data;

Focal length,f=?

Image distance,v=?

Object distance,u= 10 cm

Magnification,m= 2.85

The focal length is half of the radius;

f=R/2

f=30 Cm/2

f= 15 Cm

The mirror equation is found as;

\rm \frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{v} +\frac{1}{u} \\\\\ \frac{1}{15}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{10} }  \\\\\ v= -30 \ cm

The magnification of the lens is found as;

\rm m=\frac{30}{10}\\\\ m=3

Hence, the image distance and magnification of The image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

In which situation is work not being done?
almond37 [142]

AS

work done =W = F.d = F d cosФ     (Ф is angle between force F and displacement d) If a body/object is moving on a smooth surface (friction-less surface ) .There is no force acting on that body.  F=0 so W=FdcosФ= (0)dcosФ ⇒ W=0

Now if a body is facing some amount of force but under the action of force there is no displacement covered. d=0 so W =FdcosФ= F(0)cosФ ⇒W=0

example:  A person is applying a force on rigid wall but wall remains at rest there is no displacement occurs in wall.

The third term upon which work done  dependent is angle between force and displacement i.e Ф. If Ф=90° then W= FdcosФ= Fdcos90⇒ W=0   ( as cos 90°=0)
