Answer:

a. 25m

b. 25m

c. 35m

Explanation:

Given the distances walked as 15m east and 20m north:

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we calculate displacement as:

a^2+b^2=c2, a=15,b=-20\\\\15^2+20^2=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{15^2+20^2}=\sqrt{625}\\\\c=25m

Hence, the resultant displacement is 25m

b. The distance from her start point is obtained by drawing a straight line from her final point to her initial point.

Given the distances walked as 15m east and 20m north:

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we calculate displacement as:

a^2+b^2=c2, a=15,b=-20\\\\15^2+20^2=c^2\\\\c=\sqrt{15^2+20^2}=\sqrt{625}\\\\c=25m

Hence, she is 25m away from her starting point.

c. The distance traveled is calculated by summing the total distance walked:

d=d_1+d_2\\\\=15+20\\\\=35m

Hence, the total distance traveled is 35m

Determine the image distance and image height for a 5.00 cm tall object placed 30.0 cm from a double convex lens with a focal le
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The image distance is 30 cm

image height = - 5 cm

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the image distance is expressed as

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where

f is the focal length

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

From the information given,

u = 30

f = 15

By substituting these values into the formula,

1/15 = 1/30 + 1/v

1/v = 1/15 - 1/30 = (2 - 1)/30 = 1/30

Taking the reciprocal of both sides,

v = 30

The image distance is 30 cm

magnification = image height/object height = - v/u

Given that object height = 5 cm, then

image height/5 = - 30/30 = - 1

image height = - 5 * 1

image height = - 5 cm

A machinist turns the power on to a grinding wheel, which is at rest at time t = 0.00 s. The wheel accelerates uniformly for 10
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Time interval;Δt ≈ 37 seconds

Explanation:

We are given;

Angular deceleration;α = -1.6 rad/s²

Initial angular velocity;ω_i = 59 rad/s

Final angular velocity;ω_f = 0 rad/s

Now, the formula to calculate the acceleration would be gotten from;

α = Change in angular velocity/time interval

Thus; α = Δω/Δt = (ω_f - ω_i)/Δt

So, α = (ω_f - ω_i)/Δt

Making Δt the subject, we have;

Δt = (ω_f - ω_i)/α

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

Δt = (0 - 59)/(-1.6)

Δt = -59/-1.6

Δt = 36.875 seconds ≈ 37 seconds
