Tju [1.3M]

By law of refraction we know that image position and object positions are related to each other by following relation

\frac{\mu_1}{h_o} = \frac{\mu_2}{h_i}

here we know that

\mu_1 = 1.473

h_o = 5 cm

\mu_2 = 1

now by above formula

\frac{1.473}{5} = \frac{1}{h_i}

h_i = 3.39 cm

so apparent depth of the bottom is seen by the observer as h = 3.39 cm

Monica [59]

Answer:

a)  x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m

Explanation:

Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.

Given:

- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)

- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3  (our coordinate)

Find:

-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.

-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system

Solution:

- The position of horse according to radar gun:

                              v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2

- Separate variables:

                              dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt

- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0

                             x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

- time @ x = 2 :

                              2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3

                              0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2

- solve for t:

                              t = 0.1875 s

- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s

                              x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3

                              x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m

What does a “fixed amount of fuel” mean?
klemol [59]

Answer:

A "fixed price" energy tariff means that your unit price for gas and electricity will not change for the duration of the plan. A variable rate means your energy price can vary during the plan. If you have a fixed price plan and your supplier announces a price rise, your rates will not change.
