Answer:

<em>Height = 5.65 km</em>

Explanation:

3\pi r^2 is the circumference or we can say measures the boundary of hemisphere of friction-less ice that he is sitting on.

So, the height will be = 2 x 3.14 x (30)^2 = 5654.7 m = 5.65 km

Answer:

Height at which lead assistant will lose the contact with ice = h = 20 m

Explanation:

The height at which the lead assistant will lose the contact with the ice can be found using the following formula:

                          h = 2R/3   ……… (i)

Where R is the radius of the hemisphere. So,

                          h = 2(30)/3

                          h = 2(10)

                          h = 20 m

Hence, the lead assistant will lose the contact with the ice at the height of 20 m.

A 1.50 cm high diamond ring is placed 20.0 cm from a concave mirror with radius of curvature 30.00 cm. The magnification is ____
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Magnification, m = -0.42

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of diamond ring, h = 1.5 cm

Object distance, u = -20 cm

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 30 cm

Focal length of mirror, f = R/2 = -15 cm (focal length is negative for concave mirror)

Using mirror's formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}, f = focal length of the mirror

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

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-15}+\dfrac{1}{-20}

v = -8.57 cm

The magnification of a mirror is given by,

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-8.57)}{-20}

m = -0.42

So, the magnification of the concave mirror is 0.42. Thew negative sign shows that the image is inverted.

A man, holding a weight in each hand, stands at the center of a horizontal frictionless rotating turntable. The effect of the we
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

 w = 2w₀     the angular velocity of man doubles

Explanation:

In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia

       I= I₀ / 2

Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved

         L₀ = L

       I₀ w₀ = I w

       I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w

       w = 2w₀

therefore the angular velocity of man doubles
