You stand 1.40 m in front of a wall and gaze downward at a small vertical mirror mounted on it. In this mirror you can see the r

eflection of your shoes. If your eyes are 1.70 m above your feet, through what angle should the mirror be tilted for you to see your eyes reflected in the mirror? (The location of the mirror remains the same, only its angle to the vertical is changed.)

Answer:

The angle is 31.26°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 1.40 m

Height = 1.70 m

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{d}

Here, y = \dfrac{h}{2}

y=\dfrac{1.70}{2}=0.85\ m

Put the value into the formula

\tan\theta =\dfrac{0.85}{1.40}

\theta=\tan^{-1}0.6071

\theta=31.26^{\circ}

Hence, The angle is 31.26°.

What is the impulse of a 3kg object accelerating from rest to 12m/s?
ale4655 [162]
To find the impulse you multiply the mass by the change in velocity (impulse=mass×Δvelocity). So in this case, 3 kg × 12 m/s ("12" because the object went from zero m/s to 12 m/s).

The answer is 36 kg m/s

Masses A and B rest on very light pistons that enclose a fluid.There is no friction between the pistons and the cylinders they f
RSB [31]

Answer:

D)Not enough information

Explanation:

According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:

p_A = p_B

Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write

\frac{F_A}{A_A}=\frac{F_B}{A_B}

The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: F=W=mg, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes

\frac{m_A g}{A_A}=\frac{m_B g}{A_B}

Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:

\frac{V_A d_A g}{A_A}=\frac{V_B d_B g}{A_B}

We also know that A_B = 2.0 m^2\\A_A = 1.0 m^2

So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):

\frac{V_A d_A}{1}=\frac{V_B d_B}{2}

\frac{d_A}{d_B}=\frac{V_B}{2V_A}

We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: V_B > V_A. However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.
