igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) The back spoon gives a right image (upright)

b) the front gives an inverted image

Explanation:

The spoon is a curved metallic object, when we see ourselves from the back we have a convex mirror, in this type of mirror when the law of reflection is applied the rays diverge therefore the eye-brain system forms the image with the prolongation of the rays, therefore the image is straight and smaller than the object.

When we look through the deep side of the spoon, we have a concave mirror and as the object (we) is further away than the distance, the rays converge to a point, so the image is real, inverted smaller than the object.

In summary.

a) The back spoon gives a right image (upright)

b) the front gives an inverted image

A robot is exploring charon, the dwarf planet pluto's largest moon. Gravity on charon is 0.278 meters per second [m divided b

DochEvi [55]

In order to find the efficiency first we will find the Change in Potential energy of the small stone that robot picked up

First we will find the mass of the stone

As it is given that stone is spherical in shape so first we will find its volume

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi *(\frac{0.06}{2})^3$

$V = 1.13 * 10^{-4} m^3$

Now it is given that it's specific gravity is 10.8

So density of rock is

$\rho = 10.8 * 10^3 kg/m^3$

mass of the stone will be

$m = \rho V$

$m = 10.8* 10^3 * 1.13 * 10^{-4}$

$m = 1.22 kg$

now change in potential energy is given as

$\Delta U = mgH$

here

g = gravity on planet = 0.278 m/s^2

H = height lifted upwards = 15 cm

$\Delta U = 1.22* 0.278 * 0.15$

$\Delta U = 0.051 J$

Now energy supplied by internal circuit of robot is given by

$E = Vit$

V = voltage supplied = 10 V

i = current = 1.83 mA

t = time = 12 s

$E = 10* 1.83 * 10^{-3} * 12$

$E = 0.22 J$

Now efficiency is defined as the ratio of output work with given amount of energy used

$\eta = \frac{\Delta U}{E}*100$

$\eta = \frac{0.051}{0.22} = 0.23$

so efficiency will be 23 %

4vir4ik [10]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Cars A nad B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distance $D_{A}$ beyond the starting line at t = 0. The starting line is at x = 0. Car A travels at a constant speed $v_{A}$ . Car B starts at the starting line but has a better engine than Car A and thus Car B travels at a constant speed $v_{B}$ , which is greater than $v_{A}$ .

Part A: How long after Car B started the race will Car B catch up with Car A? Express the time in terms of given quantities.

Part B: How far from Car B's starting line will the cars be when Car B passes Car A? Express your answer in terms of known quantities.

Answer: Part A: $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Part B: $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Explanation: First, let's write an equation of motion for each car.

Both cars travels with constant speed. So, they are an uniform rectilinear motion and its position equation is of the form:

$x=x_{0}+vt$

where

$x_{0}$ is initial position

v is velocity

t is time

Car A started the race at a distance. So at t = 0, initial position is $D_{A}$ .

The equation will be:

$x_{A}=D_{A}+v_{A}t$

Car B started at the starting line. So, its equation is

$x_{B}=v_{B}t$

Part A: When they meet, both car are at "the same position":

$D_{A}+v_{A}t=v_{B}t$

$v_{B}t-v_{A}t=D_{A}$

$t(v_{B}-v_{A})=D_{A}$

$t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Car B meet with Car A after $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of time.

Part B: With the meeting time, we can determine the position they will be:

$x_{B}=v_{B}(\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}} )$

$x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Since Car B started at the starting line, the distance Car B will be when it passes Car A is $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of distance.

A stone is dropped from a bridge and hits the pavement below in two seconds. What is the velocity of the stone when it hits the

Helen [10]

We have: a = v/t
Here, t = 2 s [ Given ]
a = 9.8 m/s² [constant value for earth system ]

Substitute their values into the expression:
9.8 = v/2
v = 9.8 × 2
v = 19.6 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!
