<h2>Answer: Virtual and upright</h2><h2 />

A plane mirror is a highly polished flat surface with a very high capacity to reflect incident light.  

We can understand in a better way how this works with the figure attached:  

1. The incident rays coming from the real object reach the mirror and  

2.are reflected following the law of Reflection.  

3.The prolongation of those reflected rays converge at a point that does not coincide with the actual position of the object. At that point the virtual image of the object is formed.  

4.Then, the reflected divergent rays are captured by our eye converging on the retina.  

Now, the image is said to be virtual because it is a copy of the object that looks as if the object is behind the mirror and not in front of it or on the surface, but it is not really there. However, it can be seen when we focus it with our eyes.  

In addition, the image formed is:  

symmetrical, because apparently it is at the same distance from the mirror  

the same size as the object.  

upright, because it retains the same orientation as the object.

A time-dependent but otherwise uniform magnetic field of magnitude B0(t) is confined in a cylindrical region of radius 6.5 cm. I
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

a = 603.59 m/s^2

Explanation:

from the data given . the rate of change in magnetic field is as follow

\frac{dB}{dt} = 280 G/s = 280 \times 10^{-4} T/s

from the faraday's law of induction , the expression for the induced emf in region of radius r as follow

\epsilon = \frac{d \phi}{dt}

\int E.dl = \frac{d(BA)}{dt}

E(2\pi r)= \pi r^2 \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

electric field at point P_1 as follow

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{1.5\times 10^{-2}}{2} 280 \times 10^{-4}

E = 6.3\times 10^{-6} V/m

from newton 2nd law of motion, the acceleration of proton is

F = ma

qE = ma

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} (6.3\times 10^{-6})}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}

a = 603.59 m/s^2

A cheetah can run at a maximum speed 103 km/h and a gazelle can run at a maximum speed of 76.5 km/h. If both animals are running
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

1

 t_a  =  13.49 \  s

2

 The distance is   D = 55.2 \  m    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The maximum speed of the cheetah is  v =  103 \  km/h =  28.61 \  m/s

    The maximum of  gazelle is  u =  76.5 \  km/h =  21.25 \  m/s

     The distance ahead is d =  99.3 \  m

Let  t_a denote the time which the cheetah catches the gazelle

Gnerally the equation representing the distance the cheetah needs to move in order to catch the gazelle is

           v* t_a = d +  u* t_a

=>          28.61 t_a = 99.3 +  21.25t_a

=>          7.36 t_a = 99.3

=>         t_a  =  13.49 \  s

Now at t =  7.5 s  

             7.5 v = D+  7.5u

=>          28.61 * 7.5  = D +  21.25* 7.5

=>          7.36 *  7.5 =D

=>         D = 55.2 \  m        

Hence the for the gazelle to escape the cheetah it must be 55.2 m

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 4 m in 4 s?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 2000 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

power = ?

Weight of object = 200-N

height = 4 m

Time = 4 s

Power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power is simply obtained by dividing work by time. Its unit is watts.

i.e Power = work / time

(since work = force x distance, and weight is the force acting on the object due to gravity)

Then, Power = (weight x distance) / time

Power = (200N x 4m) / 4s

Power = 8000Nm / 4s

Power = 2000 watts

Thus, 2000 watts of power is needed to lift the object.

melisa1 [442]
1 Amp = 1 Coulomb/sec
1 Coulomb/sec = 6.25*10^18 electrons/sec

Therefore,
5.0 A = 5 C/s = 5*6.25*10^18 = 3.125*10^19 e/s

In 10 second, number of electrons are calculated as;
Number of electrons through the device = 3.125*10^19*10 = 3.125*10^20 electrons
