The magnification of the ornament is 0.25
To calculate the magnification of the ornament, first, we need to find the image distance.
Formula:
- 1/f = u⁻¹+v⁻¹.................... Equation 1
Where:
- f = Focal length of the ornament
- u = image distance
- v = object distance.
make u the subject of the equation
- u = fv/(f+v)................ Equation 2
From the question,
Given:
Substitute these values into equation 2
- u = (12×4)/(12+4)
- u = 48/16
- u = 3 cm.
Finally, to get the magnification of the ornament, we use the formula below.
- M = u/v.................. Equation 3
Where
- M = magnification of the ornament.
Substitute these values above into equation 3
Hence, The magnification of the ornament is 0.25
Not sure this is a physics question (probably biology).
Anyway, the correct answer is A):
"Plasticity helps us to adapt to our environment. It also generally decreases with age".
Plasticity is the ability to adapt to the environment. Since this ability is linked with brain functions, and brain functions worsen with age, then plasticity decreases with age.
Answer:
the distance traveled by the car is 42.98 m.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the car, m = 2500 kg
initial velocity of the car, u = 20 m/s
the braking force applied to the car, f = 5620 N
time of motion of the car, t = 2.5 s
The decelaration of the car is calculated as follows;
-F = ma
a = -F/m
a = -5620 / 2500
a = -2.248 m/s²
The distance traveled by the car is calculated as follows;
s = ut + ¹/₂at²
s = (20 x 2.5) + 0.5(-2.248)(2.5²)
s = 50 - 7.025
s = 42.98 m
Therefore, the distance traveled by the car is 42.98 m.
Answer:
Given:
Force = 8 N
Distance covered by the body = 50 cm = 0.5 m
Explanation:
Work Done = Force × Distance covered by the body
= 8 × 0.5
= 4 J
Answer:
36.87 km/h
Explanation:
Convert all the units in SI system
1 mile = 1609.34 m
d1 = 6 mi = 9656.04 m
t1 = 15 min = 15 x 60 = 900 s
d2 = 3 mi = 4828.02 m
t2 = 10 min = 10 x 60 = 600 s
d3 = 1 mi = 1609.34 m
t3 = 2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s
d4 = 0.5 mi = 804.67 m
t4 = 0.5 min = 0.5 x 60 = 30 s
Total distance, d = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4
d = 9656.04 + 4828.02 + 1609.34 + 804.67 = 16898.07 m = 16.898 km
total time, t = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4
t = 900 + 600 + 120 + 30 = 1650 s = 0.4583 h
The ratio of the total distance covered to the total time taken is called average speed.
Average speed = 16.898 / 0.4583 = 36.87 km/h
