Since the acceleration is constant, the average velocity is simply the average of the initial and final velocities of the body:

v_{avg} = \frac{v_f+v_i}{2}=\frac{30 m/s+13 m/s}{2}=21.5 m/s

We can proof that the distance covered by the body moving at constant average velocity v_{avg} is equal to the distance covered by the body moving at constant acceleration a:

- body moving at constant velocity v_{avg}: distance is given by

S=v_{avg}t = \frac{v_f+v_i}{2}t

- body moving at constant acceleration a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}: distance is given by

S=v_i t+ \frac{1}{2}at^2 = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}t^2=(v_i+\frac{1}{2}(v_f-v_i))t=\frac{v_f+v_i}{2}t

What phenomenon causes the fuzzy image? What kind of lens is used to correct this, and how is it corrected?
mamaluj [8]
In optics, chromatic aberration (abbreviated CA; also called chromatic distortion and spherochromatism) is an effect resulting from dispersion in which there is a failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same convergence point.[1] It occurs because lenses have different refractive indices for different wavelengths of light. The refractive index of transparent materials decreases with increasing wavelength in degrees unique to each.

Answer:

a) J = F  t = 40 * .05 = 2 N-s

b)  J = 2 N-s     momentum changed by 2 N-s

c) Initial momentum appears to be zero

J = change in momentum = m v2 - m v1 = m v2 = 2 N-s

v2 = J / m = 2 / .057 = 35 m/s

d) if the impulse time was increased and the average force remained the same then the change in momentum would increase with a corresponding increase in velocity attained - note the increase in v2 in part c)
