A camera with a 50.0-mm focal length lens is being used to photograph a person standing 3.00 m away. (a) How far from the lens m

ust the film be? (b) If the film is 36.0 mm high, what fraction of a 1.75-m-tall person will fit on it? (c) Discuss how reasonable this seems, based on your experience in taking or posing for photographs.

a) 50.8 mm

b) The whole image (1:1)

c) It seems reasonable

Explanation:

a)

To project the image on the film, the distance of the film from the lens must be equal to the distance of the image from the lens. This can be found by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}

where

f is the focal length of the lens

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

In this problem:

f = 50.0 mm = 0.050 m is the focal length (positive for a convex lens)

p = 3.00 m is the distance of the person from the lens

Therefore, we can find q:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{0.050}-\frac{1}{3.00}=19.667m^{-1}\\q=\frac{1}{19.667}=0.051 m=50.8 mm

b)

Here we need to find the height of the image first.

This can be done by using the magnification equation:

\frac{y'}{y}=-\frac{q}{p}

where:

y' is the height of the image

y = 1.75 m is the height of the real person

q = 50.8 mm = 0.0508 m is the distance of the image from the lens

p = 3.00 m is the distance of the person from the lens

Solving for y', we find:

y'=-\frac{qy}{p}=-\frac{(0.0508)(1.75)}{3.00}=-0.0296 m=-29.6mm

(the negative sign means the image is inverted)

Therefore, the size of the image (29.6 mm) is smaller than the size of the film (36.0 mm), so the whole image can fit into the film.

c)

This seems reasonable: in fact, with a 50.0 mm focal length, if we try to take the picture of a person at a distance of 3.00 m, we are able to capture the whole image of the person in the photo.

a lorry travels 3600m on a test track accelerating constantly at 3m/s squared from standstill. what is the final velocity (3 sig
suter [353]

The final velocity of the truck is found as 146.969 m/s.

Explanation:

As it is stated that the lorry was in standstill position before travelling a distance or covering a distance of 3600 m, the initial velocity is considered as zero. Then, it is stated that the lorry travels with constant acceleration. So we can use the equations of motion to determine the final velocity of the lorry when it reaches 3600 m distance.

Thus, a initial velocity (u) = 0, acceleration a = 3 m/s² and the displacement s is 3600 m. The third equation of motion should be used to determine the final velocity as below.

2as =v^{2} - u^{2} \\\\v^{2} = 2as + u^{2}

Then, the final velocity will be

v^{2} = 2 * 3 * 3600 + 0 = 21600\\ \\v=\sqrt{21600}=146.969 m/s

Thus,  the final velocity of the truck is found as 146.969 m/s.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) ωp = 2π radians / 1.7 s = <u>3.7 rad/s</u>

b) ωs = 3.7 rad/s(9.5 cm / 4.5 cm) = 7.8 rad/s

  v = (ωs)R = 7.8(65) = 507 cm/s or <u>5.1 m/s</u>

c) ωs = 3.5 m/s / 0.65 m = 5.38 rad/s

ωp = 5.38(4.5 cm / 9.5 cm) = 2.55 rad/s

t = θ/ω = 2π / 2.55 = 2.463... <u>2.5 s</u>
