Wind farms, solar collectors, and nuclear power plants generate no pollution.
But wind farms make noise, wind and solar are both hazardous to birds, and there's no known means of disposing of nuclear plant waste that's completely safe.
Answer:
1.
109.6 cm , - 1.74 , real
2.
1.5
Explanation:
1.
d₀ = object distance = 63 cm
f = focal length of the lens = 40 cm
d = image distance = ?
using the lens equation
d = 109.6 cm
magnification is given as
m = - 1.74
The image is real
2
d₀ = object distance = a
d = image distance = - (a + 5)
f = focal length of lens = 30 cm
using the lens equation
a = 10
magnification is given as
m = 1.5
-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.
-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.
-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s
-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s
= <span> 3,600 meters .</span>

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:
Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²
= (1/2) · (8 m/s²) · (30 sec)²
= (4 m/s²) · (900 sec²)
= 3600 meters.

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.
When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.
How does he do that ?
By accelerating at 8 m/s². That's about 0.82 G !
He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph !
He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.
Answer:
Explanation:
Acceleration is given by
where
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity
t is the time interval
In this problem:
is the initial velocity
is the final velocity
t = 2 s is the time
Substituting, we find the acceleration:
