Answer:

0.2289

Explanation:

Power required to climb= Fv where F is force and v is soeed. We know that F= mg hence Power, P= mgv and substituting 700 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 2.5 m/s for v then

P= 700*9.81*2.5=17167.5 W= 17.1675 kW

To express it as a fraction of 75 kw then 17.1675/75=0.2289 or 22.89%

A shaving or makeup mirror is designed to magnify your face by a factor of 1.40 when your face is placed 20.0cm in front of it
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(a) convex mirror

(b) virtual and magnified

(c) 23.3 cm

Explanation:

The having mirror is convex mirror.

distance of object, u = - 20 cm

magnification, m = 1.4

(a) As the image is magnified and virtual , so the mirror is convex in nature.

(b) The image is virtual and magnified.

(c) Let the distance of image is v.

Use the formula of magnification.

m =-\frac{v}{u}\\1.4=-\frac{v}{-20}\\v =28 cm

Use the mirror equation, let the focal length is f.

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{28}+\frac{1}{20}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{28+20}{560}\\f=11.67cm

Radius of curvature, R = 2 f = 2 x 11.67 = 23.3 cm

The isotope 23893Np has a half-life of 2.0 days. If 4.00 grams are produced at noon on Monday, what will be the mass of neptuniu
viva [34]

Answer:

0.25 gram of neptunium is remaining

Explanation:

First we calculate the no. of half lives passed. For that we have formula:

n = t/T

where,

n = no. of half lives passed = ?

t = total time passed = 8 days (From Monday noon to Tuesday noon of following week)

T = Half Life Period = 2 days

Therefore,

n = 8 days/2 days

n = 4

Now, for the remaining mass of neptunium, we use the formula:

m = (mi)/(2)^n

where,

mi = initial mass of neptunium = 4.00 grams

m = remaining mass of neptunium = ?

Therefore,

m = 4 grams/2⁴

<u>m = 0.25 gram</u>

Given that the arc length is:
s = ∫ √[1² + (dy/dx)²] dx 

<span>So arc length between the two points is then: </span>
<span>s = 2*20sinh(x/20)
   = 40sinh(x/20) </span>

<span>The straight distance between the two points is : d = 2x </span>
<span>So, x = d/2.
         = 40/2
         = 20 m </span>

<span>Plug this into the arc length equation to get:
s = 40sinh[20/20)]
   =40* ½ (e - 1/e) </span>
<span>   = 47 m</span>
