Why are plane mirrors and convex mirrors unable to form real images

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.39 m and a spring constant of 350 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

A) The possible algebraic signs will either be both positive (+) or both negative (-) charged since the 2 objects are repelling each other to stretch the string.

B) Magnitude of charges = 1.206 × 10^(-6) C

Explanation:

We are given;

Spring constant;k = 350 N/m

Spring length;L = 0.39 m

Stretched length of spring;x = 0.022 m

A) The spring stretches by 0.022m. Therefore, the total force is (350 × 0.022) N = 7.7N. The charged objects will either be both positive (+) or both negative (-) charged since they are repelling each other to stretch the string.

B) Force (F) required to stretch spring is given by the formula;

F = kx

Thus:

F = (350 × 0.022)

F = 7.7 N

Now, if we assume point charges, then the distance (r) between them will be given as:

r = (0.39 + 0.022) = 0.412 m

Coulomb's Law has a formula:

F = k(q1×q2)/r²

where k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 × 10^(9) Nm²/C²

Making q1 × q2 the subject, we have;

(q1 × q2) = Fr²/k = 7.7 × 0.412²/(8.99 × 10^(9))

(q1 × q2) = 14.54 × 10^(-11) C

We are told that both charges are equal, thus; |q1| = |q2|

So;

q = √(14.54 × 10^(-11)) = 1.206 × 10^(-6) C

The barometric pressure at sea level is 30 in of mercury when that on a mountain top is 29 in. If the specific weight of air is

stealth61 [152]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to pressure, depending on the product between the density of the fluid, the gravity and the depth / height at which it is located.

For mercury, density, gravity and height are defined as

$\rho_m = 846lb/ft^3$

$g = 32.17405ft/s^2$

$h_1 = 1in = \frac{1}{12} ft$

For the air the defined properties would be

$\rho_a = 0.0075lb/ft^3$

$g = 32.17405ft/s^2$

$h_2 = ?$

We have for equilibrium that

$\text{Pressure change in Air}=\text{Pressure change in Mercury}$

$\rho_m g h_1 = \rho_a g h_2$

Replacing,

$(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) = (0.0075)(32.17405)(h_2)$

Rearranging to find $h_2$

$h_2 = \frac{(846)(32.17405)(\frac{1}{12}) }{(0.0075)(32.17405)}$

$h = 9400ft$

Therefore the elevation of the mountain top is 9400ft

(a) See graph in attachment

The appropriate graph to draw in this part is a graph of velocity vs time.

In this problem, we have a horse that accelerates from 0 m/s to 15 m/s in 10 s.

Assuming the acceleration of the horse is uniform, it means that the velocity (y-coordinate of the graph) must increase linearly with the time: therefore, the velocity-time graph will appear as a straight line, having the final point at

t = 10 s

v = 15 m/s

(b) $1.5 m/s^2$
