Answer: 0.36 m

Explanation:

By definition, the x coordinate of the center of mass of the system obeys the following equation:

Xm = (m1x1 + m2x2 + …….+ mnxn) / m1+m2 +……+ mn

Neglecting the mass of the rod, and choosing our origin to be coincident with the location of the full bucket, we can write the following expression for the X coordinate of the center of mass (Assuming that both masses are aligned over the x-axis, so y-coordinates are zero):

Xm = 0.25 mb . 1.8 m / (1+0.25) mb

Simplifying mb, we get:

Xm= 0.36 m (to the right of the full bucket).

Ann [662]

Answer:

a = 8.06 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of this car can be found using the first equation of motion:

v_f = v_i + at\\\\a = \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

where,

a = acceleration = ?

vf = final speed = 26.8 m/s

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time = 3.323 s

Therefore,

a = \frac{26.8\ m/s-0\ m/s}{3.323\ s}

<u>a = 8.06 m/s²</u>

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The first graph is showing the constant acceleration (1 m/s)

Explanation:

The second graph showing the flexible velocity therefore a in the graph is different at t1, t2, t3, t4

The last graph is showing constant velocity therefore there is no acceleration (a = 0)

an object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m. determine the image height (in cm)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Given :

An object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m.

To Find :

the image height (in cm).

Solution :

By lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}

Here, u = - 100 cm

f =  150 cm

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{-100} = \dfrac{1}{150}\\\\v = - 300 \ cm

Now, magnification is given by :

m = \dfrac{v}{u} = \dfrac{h_i}{h_o}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{300}{100}\times 1\\\\h_i = 3 \ m

Therefore, the image height is 3 m or 300 cm.
