Answer:
<em>a) 3.6 ft</em>
<em>b) 12.4 ft</em>
Explanation:
Distance between mirrors = 6.2 ft
difference from from the mirror you face = 1.8 ft
a) you stand 1.8 ft in front of the mirror you face.
According to plane mirror rules, the image formed is the same distance inside the mirror surface as the distance of the object (you) from the mirror surface. From this,
your distance from your first "front" image = 1.8 ft + 1.8 ft = <em>3.6 ft</em>
b) The mirror behind you is 6.2 - 1.8 = 4.4 ft behind you.
the back mirror will be reflected 3.6 + 4.4 = 8 ft into the front mirror,
the first image of your back will be 4.4 ft into the back mirror,
therefore your distance from your first "back" image = 8 + 4.4 = <em>12.4 ft</em>
Answer:
Minimum work = 5060 J
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of the bucket (m) = 20.0 kg
Initial speed of the bucket (u) = 0 m/s
Final speed of the bucket (v) = 4.0 m/s
Displacement of the bucket (h) = 25.0 m
Let 'W' be the work done by the worker in lifting the bucket.
So, we know from work-energy theorem that, work done by a force is equal to the change in the mechanical energy of the system.
Change in mechanical energy is equal to the sum of change in potential energy and kinetic energy. Therefore,
Therefore, the work done by the worker in lifting the bucket is given as:
Now, plug in the values given and solve for 'W'. This gives,
Therefore, the minimum work that the worker did in lifting the bucket is 5060 J.
cause a change in the object's velocity
The battery doesn't 'use' power. The battery <em>produces</em> the power that all the other electrical devices use.
If the starter motor is using 2,520 watts, then the battery is producing energy at the rate of 2,520 watts. That means <em>2,520 Joules</em> of energy every second.
Thanks for giving us the formula.
E = P x t
Energy = Power x Time
Energy = (2,520 watts) x (1 second)
Energy = 2,520 Joules
