Answer:

Correct answer: C. 50 cm

Explanation:

Given data:

The distance of the object from the top of the concave mirror o = 50.0 cm

The magnitude of the concave mirror focal length 25.0 cm.

Required : Image distance d = ?

If we know the focal length we can calculate the center of the curve of the mirror

r = 2 · f = 2 · 25 = 50 cm

If we know the theory of spherical mirrors and the construction of figures then we know that when an object is placed in the center of the curve, there is also a image in the center of the curve that is inverted, real and the same size as the object.

We conclude that the image distance is 50 cm.

We will now prove this using the formula:

1/f = 1/o + 1/d => 1/d = 1/f - 1/o = 1/25 - 1/50 = 2/50 - 1/50 = 1/50

1/d = 1/50 => d = 50 cm

The voltage ???? in a simple electrical circuit is slowly decreasing as the battery wears out. The resistance ???? is slowly inc

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The change in current at $R =456 \Omega$ is $\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The resistance is $R = 465 \Omega$

The current is $I = 0.09A$

The change in voltage with respect to time is $\frac{dV}{dt} = - 0.03 V/s$

The change in resistance with time is $\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.03 \Omega /s$

According to ohm's law

$V = IR$

differentiating with respect to time using chain rule

$\frac{dV}{dt} = I \frac{dR}{dt} + R * \frac{dI}{dt}$

substituting value at R = 456

$-0.0327 = 0.09 * 0.03 + 456* \frac{dI}{dt}$

$\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$

When a 5.0kg cart undergoes a 2.2m/s increase in speed, what is the impulse of the cart

Karolina [17]

Answer:

11.0 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on the cart is equal to its change in momentum:

$I=\Delta p=m\Delta v$

where

m = 5.0 kg is the mass of the cart

$\Delta v=2.2 m/s$ is its change in speed

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

$I=(5.0kg)(2.2 m/s)=11 kg m/s$

The first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth was Sputnik I, launched October 4, 1957. The mass of Sputnik I was 83.5 kg, an

9966 [12]

Answer:

$-4.941*10^8J.$

Explanation:

To solve this exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to gravitational potential energy, as well as the concept of perigee and apogee of a celestial body.

By conservation of energy we know that,

$\Delta U = \Delta_{perogee}-\Delta_{Apogee}$

Where,

$U= \frac{-GmM_e}{r}$

Replacing

$\Delta U = \frac{-GmM_e}{r_p}- \frac{-GmM_e}{r_a}$

$\Delta U = GmM_e (\frac{1}{r_A}-\frac{1}{r_p})$

Our values are given by,

$m = 85.5Kg$

$M_e = 5.97*10^{24}Kg$

$r_A = 7330Km$

$r_p = 6610Km$

$G = 6.67*10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg^2$

Replacing at the equation,

$\Delta U = (6.67*10^{-11})(85.5)(5.97*10^{24}) (\frac{1}{7330}-\frac{1}{6610})$

$\Delta U = -4.941*10^8J$

Therefore the Energy necessary for Sputnik I as it moved from apogee to perigee was $-4.941*10^8J.$

How to find the energy of an 8 pound weight with e=mc2

Nastasia [14]

Change the 8 pounds to kilograms (divide it by 2.2). Then multiply the kg by the speed of light (300,000,000 m/sec) squared. You get a very big number. It's the number of joules of energy equivalent to 8 lbs of mass.
