Answer:

The car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

Explanation:

In order to know if the car stops before the distance to the child, you take into account the following equation:

x=x_o+v_ot-\frac{1}{2}at^2        (1)

vo: initial speed of the car = 45km/h

a: deceleration of the car = 2 m/s^2

t: time

xo: initial distance to the child = 25m

x: final distance to the child = 0m

It is necessary that the solution of the equation (1) for time t are real.

You first convert the initial speed to m/s, then replace the values of the parameters and solve the quadratic polynomial for t:

45\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=12.5\frac{m}{s}

0=25+12.5t-2t^2\\\\2t^2-12.5t-25=0\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{-(-12.5)\pm \sqrt{(-12.5)^2-4(2)(-25)}}{2(2)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{12.25\pm 18.87}{4}\\\\t_1=7.78s\\\\t_2=-1.65s

You take the first value t1 because it has physical meaning.

The solution for t is real, then, the car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.

Consider 2 converging lenses of focal lengths 5 mm (objective) and 50 mm.(eyepiece) An object 0.1 mm in size is placed a distanc
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

1)   q₁ = 12.987 cm , b)       L = 17.987 cm , c)      m = 179.87

Explanation:

We can solve the geometric optics exercises with the equation of the constructor

         1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image respectively.

Let's apply this equation to our case

1) f = 5mm = 0.5 cm

    p₁ = 5.2 mm = 0.52 cm

    h = 0.1 mm = 0.01 cm

    1 / q₁ = 1 / f- 1 / p

    1 / q₁ = 1 / 0.5 - 1 / 0.52 = 2 - 1.923

    1 / q₁ = 0.077

    q₁ = 12.987 cm

2) in this part they tell us that the eyepiece creates an image at infinity, therefore the object that comes from being at the focal length of the eyepiece

            p₂ = 5 cm

The absolute thing that goes through the two lenses is

           L = q₁ + p₂

           L = 12.987 +5

           L = 17.987 cm

3) This lens configuration forms the so-called microscope, whose expression for the magnifications

           m = -L / f_target 25 cm / f_ocular

           m = - 17.987 / 0.5 25 / 5.0

            m = 179.87

HELPPP<br> why is the united states considered energy rich, while japan is considered energy poor
Temka [501]

Answer:

Energy resources can be measured.  They will include the fossil fuels, geothermal and hydroelectric potential, and increasingly the renewable resources.  When the US list is compared to the World it is considered energy Rich.  When Japan's list is compared to the world standard it considered energy poor.  

A changing technology like nuclear fusion could substantially change the assessment.

Japan does not have any substantial, oil, coal, gas, deposits, while the US does.
