Answer:

(D) 0.99 cm

Explanation:

Given that the radius of curvature of the mirror is 25 cm.

And another car is following which is behind the mirror of 20 m.

u=20m=2000cm

Focal length is half of the radius of curvature and it is negative for convex lens.

Now the mirror formula.

1/v+1/u=1/f

So,

1/v+1/2000=-1/(25/2)\\1/v=-1/2000-1/12.5\\v=-12.422cm

Now

Magnification is,

m=-v/u

So,

m=12.422/2000=0.00621

So, Height of the image

mh=0.00621\times 1.6 m\\mh=0.0099m\\mh=0.99cm

Therefore, the image height is 0.99 cm.

A particle is moving with velocity v(t) = t2 _ 9t + 18 with distance, s measured in meters, left or right of zero, and t measure
Alex787 [66]
V = t^2 - 9t + 18

position, s
s = t^3 /3 - 4.5t^2 +18t + C

       t = 0, s = 1 => 1=C => s = t^3/3 -4.5t^2 + 18t + 1

Average velocity: distance / time

   distance: t = 8 => s = 8^3 / 3 - 4.5 (8)^2 + 18(8) + 1 = 27.67 m
   Average velocity = 27.67 / 8 = 3.46 m/s

t = 5 s

     v = t^2 - 9t + 18 = 5^2 - 9(5) + 18 = -2 m/s
     speed = |-2| m/s = 2 m/s
 
Moving right
     V > 0 => t^2 - 9t + 18 > 0
     (t - 6)(t - 3) > 0

     => t > 6 and t > 3 => t > 6 s => Interval (6,8)

    => t < 6 and t <3 => t <3 s => interval (0,3)

    

Going faster and slowing dowm

acceleration, a = v' = 2t - 9
     a > 0 => 2t - 9 > 0 => 2t > 9 => t > 4.5 s
     Then, going faster in the interval (4.5 , 8) and slowing down in (0, 4.5)

When astronomers look at distant galaxies, what sort of motion do they see?
arlik [135]
Hello! You can call me Emac or Eric.

I understand your problem, that question is pretty hard. But I found some information that I think you should read. This can get your problem done quickly.

Please hit that thank you button if that helped, I don’t want thank you’s I just want to know that this helped.

Please reply if this doesn’t help, I will try my best to gather more information or a answer.

Here is some good information that could help you out a lot!


Let’s begin by exploring some techniques astronomers use to study how galaxies are born and change over cosmic time. Suppose you wanted to understand how adult humans got to be the way they are. If you were very dedicated and patient, you could actually observe a sample of babies from birth, following them through childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood, and making basic measurements such as their heights, weights, and the proportional sizes of different parts of their bodies to understand how they change over time.

Unfortunately, we have no such possibility for understanding how galaxies grow and change over time: in a human lifetime—or even over the entire history of human civilization—individual galaxies change hardly at all. We need other tools than just patiently observing single galaxies in order to study and understand those long, slow changes.

We do, however, have one remarkable asset in studying galactic evolution. As we have seen, the universe itself is a kind of time machine that permits us to observe remote galaxies as they were long ago. For the closest galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, the time the light takes to reach us is on the order of a few hundred thousand to a few million years. Typically not much changes over times that short—individual stars in the galaxy may be born or die, but the overall structure and appearance of the galaxy will remain the same. But we have observed galaxies so far away that we are seeing them as they were when the light left them more than 10 billion years ago.


That is some information, I do have more if you need some! Thanks!

Have a great rest of your day/night! :)

Which category of galaxy does not have a distinctive shape?
mylen [45]
The category of galaxy which does not have a distinctive shape is D. an irregular galaxy.
A spiral galaxy has a spiral shape, an elliptical galaxy has an elliptical shape, and a barred-spiral galaxy has a barred-spiral shape. The only galaxy type which does not have a constant shape is an irregular galaxy.
