Answer:

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between an object and the image = 5.80 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = -2.60 cm

let the image distance be 'v' and the object distance be 'u'

thus,

u + v = 5.80 cm

or

u = 5.80 - v

from the lens formula, we have

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

on substituting the values, we have

\frac{1}{-2.60}=\frac{1}{5.80-v}+\frac{1}{v}

on rearranging, we get

-3.84 × (v × (5.80 - v)) = v + 5.80 - v

or

-2.23v + 3.84v² = 5.80

or

3.84v² - 2.23v - 5.80 = 0

on solving the quadratic equation, we get

v = 1.55 cm

and u = 5.80 - 1.55 = 4.25 cm

hence,

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

A spacecraft of mass 1500 kg orbits the earth at an altitude of approximately 450 km above the surface of the earth. Assuming a
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

1.28 x 10^4 N

Explanation:

m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km

Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'

g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2

g' / g = {6400 /  (6850)}^2

g' = 8.55 m/s^2

The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft

W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N

two forces 3N and 4N act on a body in a direction due north and due East respectively calculate their equivalent​
Lostsunrise [7]

Two forces 3N and 4N act on a body in a direction due north From East, the equilibrant's angle is given by \theta=\tan ^{-1} \frac{3}{4}=36.8^{\circ}.

<h3>What are equilibrium and resultant force?</h3>

The equilibrium force is the balanced force when the net force acting is zero and is the exact opposite of the consequent force. The resultant force is one single force replaced by numerous forces.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

3N and 4N are the two forces pulling on a body.

The forces work along the North and the East, which are perpendicular to one another.

The resultant of the forces, which is provided by the equilibrant force,

R  = √(3)²+(4)²

R = 5N

From East, the equilibrant's angle is given by

\theta=\tan ^{-1} \frac{3}{4}=36.8^{\circ}

When a 5.0kg cart undergoes a 2.2m/s increase in speed, what is the impulse of the cart
Karolina [17]

Answer:

11.0 kg m/s

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on the cart is equal to its change in momentum:

I=\Delta p=m\Delta v

where

m = 5.0 kg is the mass of the cart

\Delta v=2.2 m/s is its change in speed

Substituting numbers into the equation, we find

I=(5.0kg)(2.2 m/s)=11 kg m/s
