Answer:

C) false. The image is formed by the prolongation of the rays, so it is VIRTUAL

Explanation:

Let's review each of the statements

A) True. The image is the same size as the object in a flat mirror, m = 1

B) True. The rays are not inverted, so the right images

C) false. The image is formed by the prolongation of the rays, so it is VIRTUAL

D) True. Flat mirrors reverse left and right

E) True. When using trigonometry the angles are equal, therefore two triangles formed have the same leg, and the distance to the object and the image are equal

As per Newton's law rate of change in momentum is net force

so we can write it as

$F = \frac{dP}{dt}$

$F = \frac{m(v_f - v_i)}{\Delta t}$

now we know that

$m = 60 kg$

$v_f = 3 m/s$

$v_i = 0$

$\Delta t= 0.2 s$

from above equation

$F = \frac{60(3 - 0)}{0.2} = 900 N$

so he will experience 900 N force in above case

Answer:s=0.68 m

Explanation:

Given

Inclination $\theta =11.1^{\circ}$

Speed of block(u)=1.6 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic Friction $\mu _k=0.39$

deceleration provided by friction=g\sin \theta -\mu _kg\cos \theta [/tex]

Using $v^2-u^2=2as$

Final velocity v=0

$0-1.6^2=2(g\sin \theta -\mu _kg\cos \theta )s$

$s=\frac{-1.6^2}{2\cdot (9.8\sin 11.1-0.39\times 9.8\times \cos 11.1)}$

s=0.68 m
