Answer:

The speed of the flow of water in the river is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of man = 5 m/s

If this man swims crosses a specific river his speed is 3 m/s.

If he takes the minimum time to cross the river

Let the speed of flow of water be v_{r}

We need to calculate the speed of the flow of water in the river

Using formula for velocity

v_{rs}^2=v_{r}^2+v_{s}^2

v_{r}^2=v_{rs}^2-v_{s}^2

Where, v_{s} = velocity of swimmer

v_{sr} = relative velocity

v_{r} = velocity of river

Put the value into the formula

v_{r}^2=5^2-3^2}

v_{r}=\sqrt{5^2-3^2}

v_{r}=4\ m/s

Hence, The speed of the flow of water in the river is 4 m/s.

Using Mirror equation A, Calculate The Frequency Of The Long Stand And The Shortest Wave Length Of That An Object Is Placed Of A
Leya [2.2K]

The Image distance and Magnification of The Image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length of the lens, which is often expressed in millimeters, is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus.

Given data;

Focal length,f=?

Image distance,v=?

Object distance,u= 10 cm

Magnification,m= 2.85

The focal length is half of the radius;

f=R/2

f=30 Cm/2

f= 15 Cm

The mirror equation is found as;

\rm \frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{v} +\frac{1}{u} \\\\\ \frac{1}{15}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{10} }  \\\\\ v= -30 \ cm

The magnification of the lens is found as;

\rm m=\frac{30}{10}\\\\ m=3

Hence, the image distance and magnification of The image ​will be 30 cm and 3.

To learn more about the focal length refer;

What change happens when matter<br> changes states?
Snowcat [4.5K]
Matter either loses or absorbs energy when it changes from one state to another. For example, when matter changes from a liquid to a solid, it loses energy. The opposite happens when matter changes from a solid to a liquid. For a solid to change to a liquid, matter must absorb energy from its surroundings.

Would the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed or less compressed if you weighed yourself in an elevator that was
Ber [7]
More compressed. moving up = apparent weight (i.e., your norma force) is greater. this means you’ll weighr more and push those springs down even more than you would at rest.
