Answer:

3.0 cm

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length of the mirror

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this problem we have:

f = 1.5 cm is the focal length of the mirror (positive for a concave mirror)

p = 3.0 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

Therefore, the distance of the image is:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{1.5}-\frac{1}{3.0}=\frac{1}{3.0}\\\rightarrow q=3.0 cm$

And the positive sign means that the image is real.

(The second part of the exercise is just the description of the image of the first exercise).

A.) If its booster rockets accelerate the space shuttle at 15m/s2, how high will it be one minute after launch?

poizon [28]

Answer:

27,000 m

450 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity is 0 m/s:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 15 m/s²

t = 60 s

A) Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (60 s) + ½ (15 m/s²) (60 s)²

Δy = 27,000 m

B) Find: v_avg

v_avg = Δy / t

v_avg = 27,000 m / 60 s

v_avg = 450 m/s

Four identical particles of mass 0.980 kg each are placed at the vertices of a 4.14 m x 4.14 m square and held there by four mas

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a) The rotational inertia when it passes through the midpoints of opposite sides and lies in the plane of the square is 16.8 kg m²

b) I = 50.39 kg m²

c) I = 16.8 kg m²

Explanation:

a) Given data:

m = 0.98 kg

a = 4.14 * 4.14

The moment of inertia is:

$I=mr^{2} \\r=\frac{a}{2} \\I=m(a/2)^{2} \\I=\frac{ma^{2} }{4}$

For 4 particles:

$I=4(\frac{ma^{2} }{4} )=ma^{2} =0.98*(4.14)^{2} =16.8kgm^{2}$

b) Distance from top left mass = x = a/2

Distance from bottom left mass = x = a/2

Distance from top right mass = x = √5 (a/2)

The total moment of inertia is:

$I=m(\frac{a}{2} )^{2} +m(\frac{a}{2} )^{2}+m(\frac{\sqrt{5a} }{2} )^{2}+m(\frac{\sqrt{5a} }{2} )^{2}=\frac{12ma^{2} }{4} =3ma^{2} =3*0.98*(4.14)^{2} =50.39kgm^{2}$

$I=2m(\frac{m}{\sqrt{2} } )^{2} =ma^{2} =0.98*(4.14)^{2} =16.8kgm^{2}$

If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 2 meters, and a frequency of 10 Hz, and a period of 1 second, then at what

Serhud [2]

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

$v=\lambda f$

where

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

f is the frequency

v is the speed

For the wave in this problem,

f = 10 Hz is the frequency

$\lambda=2 m$ is the wavelength

So the speed is

$v=(10 Hz)(2 m)=20 m/s$

The near point of an eye is 56.0 cm. A corrective lens is to be used to allow this eye to focus clearly on objects at the distan

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

Near point = 56 cm .

near point of healthy person = 25 cm

person suffers from long sightedness

convex lens will be required .

object distance u = 25 cm

image distance v = 56 cm

both will be negative as both are in front of the lens.

lens formula

I/v - 1 / u = 1/f

- 1/56 +1/25 = 1/f

- .01785 + .04 = 1/f

1/f = .02215

f = 45.15 cm .
