Answer: 30 metres

Explanation:

Initial velocity of object = 120m/s

Time taken = 4.0s

Distance covered by object = ?

Recall that distance = (Change in velocity / Time taken)

Distance = (120m/s)/4.0s

= (120m/s) / 4.0s

= 30m

Thus, the object will be 30 metres high

A car is going south on I-69 at 33 m/s (74 mph). The car has good brakes so its maximum braking acceleration is – 8.5 m/s^2 . Tr

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

1.69515 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-33^2}{2\times -8.5}\\\Rightarrow s=64.06\ m$

The distance between the traffic and the car after braking is 120-64.06 = 55.94 m

Time = Distance / Speed

$\text{Time}=\frac{55.94}{33}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time}=1.69515\ seconds$

The reaction time cannot be more than 1.69515 seconds

A theory was not originally a hypothesis. true or false?

Serhud [2]

False.

Theories are hypotheses that have been shown to accurately and predictably explain results obtained through repeated experimentation, to the point where the hypothesis can be assumed to be true. Then, such a hypothesis would be considered a theory.

A convex lens has a focal length of 16.5 cm. Where on the lens axis should an object be placed in order to get a virtual, enlarg

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Object should be placed at a distance, u = 7.8 cm

Given:

focal length of convex lens, F = 16.5 cm

magnification, m = 1.90

Solution:

Magnification of lens, m = - $\frac{v}{u}$

where

u = object distance

v = image distance

Now,

1.90 = $\frac{v}{u}$

v = - 1.90u

To calculate the object distance, u by lens maker formula given by:

$\frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}$

$\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{- 1.90u}$

$\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1.90 - 1}{1.90u}$

$\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{ 0.90}{1.90u}$

u = 7.8 cm

Object should be placed at a distance of 7.8 cm on the axis of the lens to get virtual and enlarged image.
