Answer:

Concave mirror,-20.48m

Explanation:

Concave mirrors-This is because the objects are made smaller by the mirror, so they appear farther away.

#we find the image distance from the magnification:

m=\frac{h_1}{h_o}=\frac{-d_i}{d_o}\\\\+0.33=\frac{-d_i}{20.8}\\\\d_i=-6.864m

#We find the focal length from:

({\frac{1}{d_o})}+({\frac{1}{d_i})}=({\frac{1}{f})}\\\\({\frac{1}{20.8})}+({\frac{1}{-6.864})}=\frac{1}{f}\\\\f=-10.24m

r=2f=-10.24m*2=-20.48m

#The mirror has a negative radius(-20.48m) of curvature since its vertex  lies to the right of the center of curvature

In physics, why would an equation like y=mx+b be plotted as a straight line rather than as a parabola, as is done in math?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Both Physics and Math

y=mx+b is plotted as straight line where

m=slope of line

b=intercept on Y-axis

whereas Equation of parabola is something like this

y^2=4ax

or

x^2=4ay

Math is a tool to solve Physics problems so equations are same in math and physics

A uniform rod is set up so that it can rotate about a perpendicular axis at one of its ends. The length and mass of the rod are
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

0.231 N

Explanation:

To get from rest to angular speed of 6.37 rad/s within 9.87s, the angular acceleration of the rod must be

\alpha = \frac{\theta}{t} = \frac{6.37}{9.87} = 0.6454 rad/s^2

If the rod is rotating about a perpendicular axis at one of its end, then it's momentum inertia must be:

I = \frac{mL^2}{3} = \frac{1.27*0.847^2}{3} = 0.303kgm^2

According to Newton 2nd law, the torque required to exert on this rod to achieve such angular acceleration is

T = I\alpha = 0.303*0.6454 = 0.196 Nm

So the force acting on the other end to generate this torque mush be:

F = \frac{T}{L} = \frac{0.196}{0.847} = 0.231 N

Does the moon actually change shape as it revolves/rotates around the Earth? Explain your answer
rusak2 [61]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The moon doesn’t change shape on its own.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Shapes of moon that we observe is based on the different perspectives of view from the earth and position of moon with respect to the sun. The changes arise due to the rotation of earth on its own axis as well as the revolution of moon on its orbit. The moon doesn’t have any light of its own.

It just reflects off the light from the sun. Due to tidal locking phenomenon one face of the moon permanently faces the sun. Because of the changes in position of moon with respect to the sun the moon is lighted up variably giving rise to various phases like new moon, full moon, crescent etc.

Object A and Object B are 100 meters apart. If Object A gains some
satela [25.4K]

The gravitational force between the two objects A) It increases.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2} (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

m_1, m_2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

In this problem, object A and object B are initially at a distance of

r = 100 m

And at that distance, the force between them is

F

Later, object A gains some mass. We notice from eq.(1) that the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass: therefore, if the mass of either of the two objects increases, then the gravitational force between them also increases. Therefore, the new force will be larger than the original force:

F' > F

a baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high. The carriage with the baby weighs 12 Kg. how much energy does
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the hill, h = 21 m

The carriage with the baby weighs, m = 12 kg

The energy possessed by the body due to its position is the potential energy,

                                      <em>W = P.E = mgh joules</em>

Substituting the values,

                                       W = 12 x 9.8 x 21

                                            = 2469.6 J

Hence, the carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J
