Direct current (DC) is the flow of electric charge in only one direction. ... Alternating current (AC) is the flow of electric charge that periodically reverses direction. If the source varies periodically, particularly sinusoidally, the circuit is known as an alternating current circuit.

a certain projetor uses a concave mirror for projecting an object's image on a screen .it produces on image that is 4 times bigg
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

f = 1 m

Explanation:

The magnification of the lens is given by the formula:

M = \frac{q}{p}

where,

M = Magnification = 4

q = image distance = 5 m

p = object distance = ?

Therefore,

4 = \frac{5\ m}{p}\\\\p = \frac{5\ m}{4}\\\\p = 1.25\ m

Now using thin lens formula:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{1.25\ m}+\frac{1}{5\ m}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = 1\ m^{-1}\\\\

<u>f = 1 m</u>

A 1.70 m tall woman stands 5.00 m in front of a camera with a 50.00 cm focal
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

18.89cm

Explanation:

As we know that the person is standing 5m in front of the camera

d_0=5m=500cm

The focal length of the lens =50cm

f=50 cm

By Lens formula we have:

\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{d_o}\\\dfrac{1}{50} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i} =\dfrac{1}{50}-\dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i}=0.018\\d_i=55.56cm

By the formula of magnification

\dfrac{h_i}{h_o} = \dfrac{55.56}{500}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{55.56}{500} \times h_o\\\\ h_o=1.70m=170cm\\\\Therefore: h_i=\dfrac{55.56}{500} \times$ 170 cm\\\\h_i =18.89 cm

The height of the image formed is 18.89cm.

Technician A says that the governor is used to measure vehicle speed in a hydraulically-controlled automatic transmission. Techn
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Both technicians are correct

Explanation:

In automobiles, governors are being used. Governors are also known for speed limiters as they can regulate and measure the speed of the automobile.

Hydraulic Transmission: Shifting is controlled by mechanical sensors according to vehicle speed and throttle position/manifold vacuum through valving operated by hydraulic 'pilot' signals.

Electronic Transmission: Shifting is controlled by an on-board computer that receives signals from electronic sensors.

An 800 kg fishing boat going south at 12 m/s runs into a stopped pontoon boat (1400 kg). The boats stick together and move south
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of fish, m₁ = 800 kg

mass of boat, m₂ = 1400 kg

initial velocity of the fish, u₁ = 12 m/s

initial velocity of the boat, u₂ = 0

let the final velocity of the fish-boat after collision = v

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum for inelastic collision;

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁ + m₂)

800 x 12    +   1400 x 0 = v(800 + 1400)

9600 = 2200v

v = 9600/2200

v = 4.36 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the boats after the collision is 4.36 m/s.
