Answer:

A fundamental quantity is something that can only be found by measuring, such as measuring the length of a pencil. We have no other way to find out the length of the pencil other than measuring it in some way.

A derived quantity is something that is calculated and that is not measured <em>directly. </em>Area is found by multiplying two lengths together. We cant find the area other than computing it somehow

Consider two sizes of disk, both of mass M. One size of disk has radius R; the other has radius 4R. System A consists of two of

Harman [31]

Answer:

4 smaller disks

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of smaller and larger disks = M

Radius of smaller disk = R

Radius of larger disk = 4R

Formula for moment of inertia about cylinder axis is:

I = ½MR²

Thus;

For small disk, I_small = ½MR²

For large disk, I_large = ½M(2R)² = 2MR²

We are told that moment of inertia of System A consists of two of the larger disks. Thus;

I_A = 2 × I_large = 2 × 2MR²

I_A = 4MR²

We are also told that System B consists of one of the larger disks and a number of the smaller disks. Thus;

I_B = I_large + n(I_small)

Where n is the number of smaller disks.

I_B = 2MR² + n(½MR²)

I_B = MR²(2 + n/2)

We are told that the moment of inertia for system A equals the moment of inertia for system B. Thus;

I_A = I_B

So;

4MR² = MR²(2 + n/2)

MR² will cancel out to give;

4 = 2 + n/2

Multiply through by 2 to give;

8 = 4 + n

n = 8 - 4

n = 4

ICE Princess25 [194]

Your answer:

In Greek mythology, this constellation is related with the time the Olympian gods sought refuge in Egypt. Unfortunately, following their epic fighting with the Titans, peace did not closing for long, as the monster Typhon, son of the Titan Tartarus and Earth, sought revenge. Typhon was once a fearsome fire-breathing creature, taller than mountains and with palms which possessed dragons' heads in region of fingers. The Olympian gods sought to break out by way of adopting a number disguises: Zeus, a ram - Hera, a white cow, Bacchus (another model of the fable suggests Pan) a goat. As Typhon approached, Bacchus/Pan threw himself into the Nile but, in a panic, solely succeeded in altering part of his body, ending up with a goat's physique and the tail of a fish. Meanwhile, Zeus had been dismembered via Typhon, however was saved when Bacchus/Pan let out an ear-splitting yell, distracting the monster lengthy ample for an agile Hermes to gather the supreme god's limbs and cautiously fix him. In gratitude, Zeus transferred Bacchus/Pan to the heavens.

A man standing 1.54 m in front of a shaving mirror produces a real, inverted image 15.2 cm from it. What is the focal length of

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance u=1.54 m =154 cm

Image distance v = 15.2 cm

Magnification = 2

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of mirror

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

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{15.2}+\dfrac{1}{-154}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{347}{5852}$

$f=16.86\ cm$

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of magnification

$m= \dfrac{-v}{u}$

Put the value into the formula

$2=\dfrac{v}{u}$

$v = -2u$

Using formula of for focal length

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

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{u}-\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$2u=16.86$

$u=\dfrac{16.86}{2}$

$u=8.43\ cm$

Hence, The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.
