Answer:

u = 18 cm

Explanation:

given,

radius of curvature = 60 cm

magnification of mirror = 2.5

distance of object  = ?

R = 2 f

f = R/2

f = 60/2 = 30 cm

m = -\dfrac{v}{u}

2.5 = -\dfrac{v}{u}

v = -2.5 u

now,

Using mirror formula

\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{v} + \dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{30} = \dfrac{1}{-2.5u} + \dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{30} = \dfrac{0.6}{u}

u = 0.6 x 30

u = 18 cm

distance of object be equal to u = 18 cm

If you make multiple measurements of your height, you are likely to find that the results vary by nearly half an inch in either
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Height h= 1.7 m

Explanation:

Supposing we have to find height in meter.

1 feet = 0.3048 m

1 inch = 0.0254 m

Given that:

5 feet

= 5×0.3048

= 1.524 m

and 7 inch = 7×0.0254= 0.1778 m

Therefore total height of a man in meter

5 feet 7 inch = 1.5424+0.1778 =1.7 m

Height h= 1.7 m

A baseball leaves a bat with a horizontal velocity of 20.0 m/s. When it has left the bat for a time of 0.250 s (Assume air resis
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The distance is 5 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 20.0 m/s

Time t = 0.250 s

We need to calculate the horizontal distance

The distance traveled by the baseball with horizontal velocity in time t is given by

Using formula for horizontal distance

d = v\times t

d = 20.0\times0.250

d=5\ m

Hence, The distance is 5 m.

Which type of electromagnetic waves make up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

we conclude that visible light is that electromagnetic wave that makes up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm.

Hence, option A is correct.

Explanation:

Generally, after the storm, we can witness the presence of a rainbow with our naked eyes. Rainbow, visible to our eyes, consists of all the seven constituent colors of white light. Those seven colors range from violet to red, all having different wavelengths. When water particles present in our atmosphere get exposed to light, all the constituent colors of a white light tend to deviate at a variety of angles. It happens due to their refraction through water particles; thus, a spectrum is obtained.

As we cannot see X-rays, UV rays, and infrared waves through our naked eye, visible light is the kind of electromagnetic wave that makes anyone able to see the objects.  

Please note that all the constitute colors of a beautiful rainbow associate with the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Therefore, we conclude that visible light is that electromagnetic wave that makes up the colors of a rainbow seen after a storm.

Hence, option A is correct.

Suppose you are standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Will the scale read your weight as larger for sm
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

When I stand at such a scale in an elevated that's already rising upwards, its scale would appear to also be 0 because of free fall and would often reveal that weight whenever the lift is stable.  

In this, the free fall is also known as the object, that is influenced exclusively by gravity, and an object operating only through the influence of gravity is said to be in a free-fall state.
