A person of mass m is standing on the surface of the Earth, of mass M E . What is the acceleration that the Earth experiences du

Answer:

a_E=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}

Explanation:

M_E = Mass of the Earth =  5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m

m = Mass of person

The force on the person will balance the gravitational force

M_Ea_E=\dfrac{GmM_E}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow a_E=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}

The acceleration that the Earth will feel is a_E=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}

A 1.70 m tall woman stands 5.00 m in front of a camera with a 50.00 cm focal
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

18.89cm

Explanation:

As we know that the person is standing 5m in front of the camera

d_0=5m=500cm

The focal length of the lens =50cm

f=50 cm

By Lens formula we have:

\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{d_o}\\\dfrac{1}{50} = \dfrac{1}{d_i} + \dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i} =\dfrac{1}{50}-\dfrac{1}{500}\\\dfrac{1}{d_i}=0.018\\d_i=55.56cm

By the formula of magnification

\dfrac{h_i}{h_o} = \dfrac{55.56}{500}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{55.56}{500} \times h_o\\\\ h_o=1.70m=170cm\\\\Therefore: h_i=\dfrac{55.56}{500} \times$ 170 cm\\\\h_i =18.89 cm

The height of the image formed is 18.89cm.

Electromagnetic radiation is more common than you think. Radio and TV stations emit radio waves when they broadcast their progra
meriva

Answer:

1) i. All these technologies use radio waves, including high-frequency microwaves.

ii. Microwave ovens emit in the same frequency band as some wireless Internet devices.

2. B. The earth absorbs visible light and emits radiation with a longer wavelength.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic radiations are generated when there is an interference between electric and magnetic fields traveling at right angles to each other. All electromagnetic waves forms a spectrum with respect to their frequency and wavelength. The higher the wavelength, the lower the frequency.

All these waves move with the same and constant speed, but are generated from different sources. From the given applications, X-ray has a high frequency, but low wavelength.

In the second case, infrared waves have longer wavelength than visible light.
