Answer:

C. 44 cm

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}

where

f is the focal length

p = 30 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

We also know that the magnification is

M=-\frac{q}{p}=+3.2

So

q=-3.2p=-3.2(30)=-96 cm

Substituting into the first equation, we find f:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{30}-\frac{1}{96}=0.0229 cm^{-1} \rightarrow f=43.7 cm \sim 44 cm

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) t = 3.81 s

b) vf =  37.4 m/s

Explanation:

Data

height = 71.3 m = 234 feet

t = 0 m/s

vf = ?

vo = 0 m/s

Formula

h = vot + 1/2gt²

vf = vo + gt

Process

a)

               h = vot + 1/2gt²

             71.3 = 0t + 1/2(9.81)t²

             2(71.3) = 9,81t²

              t² = 2(71.3)/9.81

              t² = 14.53

              t = 3.81 s

b)

      vf = 0 + (9.81)(3.81)

      vf = 37.4 m/s

Newtons laws of motion
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Law 1. A body continues in its state of rest, or in uniform motion in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force.

Law 2. A body acted upon by a force moves in such a manner that the time rate of change of momentum equals the force.

Law 3. If two bodies exert forces on each other, these forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Question: What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 120 m/s and a wavelength of 0.40 m?

Answer: The equation that relates frequency of a wave to a waves speed and wavelength is Speed of Wave= Frequency X Wavelength. Since you are given speed and wavelength, you plug those two known numbers into the equation, 120= Frequency X 0.40. You then divide 120 by .4 to get your frequency of 300.

baherus [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

The most important thing to remember about parabolic motion in physics is that when an object reaches its max height, the velocity right there at the highest point is 0. Use this one-dimensional motion equation to solve this problem:

v = v₀ + at and filling in:

0 = v₀ + (-9.8)(4.0) **I put in 4.0 for time so we have more than just 1 sig fig here**

0 = v₀ - 39 and

-v₀ = -39 so

v₀ = 39 m/s

Two vectors A and B are at right angles to each other. The magnitude of A is 3.00. What should be the length of B, so that the m
AfilCa [17]

Answer: length of B =4.00

Explanation:

for  the vectors A and B and the angle between them as  x.

Magnitude of the sum of A and B is  given as = √(A²+B²+2ABcosx

where

Magnitude of A  = 3.00

Magnitude of the sum of A and B is  5.00

5.00=√(A²+B²+2ABcos90°

5.00= √3² +b² +0

5²= 3² +b²

25=9+b²

b²= 25-9

b² = 16

b=  √16

b= 4
