The owner of a van installs a rear-window lens that has a focal length of -0.340 m. When the owner looks out through the lens at

an object located directly behind the van, the object appears to be 0.240 m from the back of the van, and appears to be 0.390 m tall. (a) How far from the van is the object actually located, and (b) how tall is the object?

Answer:

0.816 m

1.326 m

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance = -0.24

f = Focal length = -3 m (concave lens)

h_v = Image height = 0.39 m

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{-0.34}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-0.24}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{-0.34}+\dfrac{1}{0.24}\\\Rightarrow u=0.816\ m

The object is 0.816 m from the van

m=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow -\frac{v}{u}=\frac{h_v}{h_u}\\\Rightarrow h_u=-\dfrac{h_vu}{v}\\\Rightarrow h_u=-\dfrac{0.39\times 0.816}{-0.24}\\\Rightarrow h_u=1.326\ m

The height of the object is 1.326 m

In a typical rear-end collision, the victim's ________ is/are accelerated faster and harder than the torso
Georgia [21]

The victim's head is accelerated faster and harder than the torso when the victom is involved in a typical rear-end collision.

The traffic accident where a vehicle crashes into another vehicle that is directly in front of it is called a rear-end collision.

 

One of the most common accident in the United States is the rear-end collision, and in a lot of cases, rear-end collisions are prompted by drivers who are inattentive, unfavorable conditions of the road, and poor following distance.

 

<span>An enough room in front of your car so you can stop when the car in front of you stops suddenly is one basic driving rule. The person isn’t driving safely if he / she is behind you and couldn’t stop.</span>

Amy uses 20N of force to push a lawn mower 10 meters. How much work does she do? *
babunello [35]

She does 200J .

We know she uses 20N of force and 10m is the distance. We multiply both numbers and we are given our answer of 200J. Hope this was helpful. :)

If you wish to warm 100 kg of water by 20°C for your bath, how much heat is required? (Give your answer in calories and joules.)
taurus [48]
Q = mcθ

Where m = mass of water in kg.
c = specific heat capacity in kJ/kg⁰C, c for water = 4200 kJ/kg⁰C
θ = temperature rise in ⁰C

Q = 100*4200* 20    Note here the temperature rise is 20 ⁰C
Q = 8 400 000 J

In calories,  4.2 J = 1 Calorie
=  8 400 000 / 4.2   = 200 000

Q = 200 000 Calories

how would the velocity of the book change if the applied force were equal to the sliding friction force
Inessa [10]
Yes, Sliding friction opposes the movement of the book, slowing it down.sliding That's the 'kinetic' kind.. According to Newton's second law, F=ma. That is, the bear's acceleration should be proportional to the total force acting on the bear. As the bear's velocity is constant, its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the total Force acting on the bear is zero. Thus, the friction has to be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the bear's weight. As W=mg, we get that its weight is  <span>9.8*400=3,920 Newton. Thus, the friction acting on the bear is 3,920 Newton</span>
