Calculate the size of the image of a tree that is 8m high and 80 m a pinhole camera that is 20 cm long . what is its magnificati

Vladimir79 [104]

1) Size of the image: 2 cm

In order to calculate the size of the image, we can use the following proportion:

$p:q = h_o : h_i$

where

p = 80 m is the distance of the tree from the pinhole

q = 20 cm = 0.2 m is the distance of the image from the pinhole

$h_o$ = 8 m is the heigth of the object

$h_i$ is the height of the image

By re-arranging the proportion, we find

$h_i = \frac{h_o \cdot q}{p}=\frac{(8 m)(0.2 m)}{80 m}=0.02 m=2 cm$

2) Magnification: 0.0025

The magnification of a camera is given by the ratio between the size of the image and the size of the real object:

$M=\frac{h_i}{h_o}$

so, in this problem we have

$M=\frac{0.02 m}{8 m}=0.0025$

2. Two identical conducting spheres are placed with their centers 0.30 m apart. One is given a charge of 12 x 10-9 C and the oth

Maru [420]

Answer:

A. -2.16 * 10^(-5) N

B. 9 * 10^(-7) N

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Distance between their centres, r = 0.3 m

Charge in first sphere, Q1 = 12 * 10^(-9) C

Charge in second sphere, Q2 = -18 * 10^(-9) C

A. Electrostatic force exerted on one sphere by the other is:

F = (k * Q1 * Q2) / r²

F = (9 * 10^9 * 12 * 10^(-9) * -18 * 10^(-9)) / 0.3²

F = -2.16 * 10^(-5) N

B. When they are brought in contact by a wire and are then in equilibrium, it means they have the same final charge. That means if we add the charges of both spheres and divided by two, we'll have the final charge of each sphere:

Q1 + Q2 = 12 * 10^(-9) + (-18 * 10^(-9))

= - 6 * 10^(-9) C

Dividing by two, we have that each sphere has a charge of -3 * 10^(-9) C

Hence the electrostatic force between them is:

F = [9 * 10^9 * (-3 * 10^(-9)) * (-3 * 10^(-9)] / 0.3²

F = 9 * 10^(-7) N

Using equations, determine the temperature, pressure and density of the air for a aircraft flying at 19.5 km. Is this aircraft s

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

a) - 72.5°c

b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa

c) density = 0.063 kg/m^3

d) it is a subsonic aircraft

Explanation:

a) Determine Temperature

Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )

T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )

= -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c

b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude

Given :

Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level ) = 101kpa

R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk

T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k

pressure = 3625.13 Pa

hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic

Velocity ( v ) = $\sqrt{CRT}$ = $\sqrt{1.4*287*200.5 }$ = 283.8 m/s

hence it is a subsonic aircraft
