Answer:

option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter

Explanation:

from the above given statement option 1 is true

1 yard is equal to 0.9144 meter

while

1 mile is equal to 1.60934 km

1 foot is equal to 30.48 centimeter

1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeter

therefore all these units [left one] are larger than their respective conversion [ right one unit]

therefore option A is correct as 1 yard consist of 0.9144 meter which is less than one meter

The center of gravity of a loaded truck depends on how the truck is packed. If it is 4.0 m high and 2.4 m wide, and its CG is 2.

Vitek1552 [10]

The slope of the road can be given as the ratio of the change in vertical

distance per unit change in horizontal distance.

The maximum steepness of the slope where the truck can be parked without tipping over is approximately 54.55 %.

Reasons:

Width of the truck = 2.4 meters

Height of the truck = 4.0 meters

Height of the center of gravity = 2.2 meters

Required:

The allowable steepness of the slope the truck can be parked without tipping over.

Solution:

Let, C represent the Center of Gravity, CG

At the tipping point, the angle of elevation of the slope = θ

Where;

$tan\left(\theta \right) = \dfrac{\overline{AM}}{\overline{CM}}$

The steepness of the slope is therefore;

$\mathrm{The \ steepness \ of \ the \ slope}= \dfrac{\overline{AM}}{\overline{CM}} \times 100$

Where;

$\overline{AM}$ = Half the width of the truck = $\dfrac{2.4 \, m}{2}$ = 1.2 m

$\overline{CM}$ = The elevation of the center of gravity above the ground = 2.2 m

$\mathrm{The \ steepness \ of \ the \ slope}= \dfrac{1.2}{2.2} \times 100 \approx 54.55\%$

$tan\left(\theta \right) = \mathbf{\dfrac{2.2}{1.2}} = \dfrac{11}{6}$

$Elevation \ of \ the \ road \ \theta = arctan\left( \dfrac{6}{11} \right) \approx 28.6 ^{\circ}$

The maximum steepness of the slope where the truck can be parked is 54.55 %.

A photon of light has a wavelength of about 600 nm (1nm = 1 x 10-9 m). What is the energy of this photon of light? Show all calc

bezimeni [28]

Wavelength = 600 nm = 600 × 10^(-9)
speed of light = c = 3 × 10^8
planck constant = h = 6.63 × 10^(-34)

energy of photon = hc/wavelength
= 6.63 × 10^(-34) × 3 × 10^8/600 × 10^(-9)
= 1.9 × 10^(-25)/6 × 10^(-7)
= 0.31 × 10^(-16)
= 3.1 × 10^(-17)

A shaving or makeup mirror is designed to magnify your face by a factor of 1.40 when your face is placed 20.0cm in front of it

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

(a) convex mirror

(b) virtual and magnified

Explanation:

The having mirror is convex mirror.

distance of object, u = - 20 cm

magnification, m = 1.4

(a) As the image is magnified and virtual , so the mirror is convex in nature.

(b) The image is virtual and magnified.

Use the formula of magnification.

$m =-\frac{v}{u}\\1.4=-\frac{v}{-20}\\v =28 cm$

Use the mirror equation, let the focal length is f.

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{28}+\frac{1}{20}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{28+20}{560}\\f=11.67cm$

Radius of curvature, R = 2 f = 2 x 11.67 = 23.3 cm
