madam [21]

Till the time car is just adjacent to the bicycle we can say

distance moved by cycle = distance moved by car

Time taken by car to accelerate from rest

$t = \frac{v_f - v_i}{a}$

$t = \frac{49 - 0}{7} = 7 s$

Time taken by cycle to accelerate

$t = \frac{23 - 0}{15} = 1.53 s$

now the distance moved by cycle in time "t"

$d = \frac{23 + 0}{2}*1.53 + 23(t - 1.53)$

distance moved by car in same time

$d = \frac{7t + 0}{2}(t)$

now make them equal

$3.5t^2 = 17.595 - 35.19 + 23t$

$3.5 t^2 - 23t + 17.595 = 0$

$t = 5.68 s$

so cycle will move ahead of car for t = 5.68 s

A cannon is fired horizontally at 243 m/s off of a 62 meter tall, shear vertical cliff. How far in meters from the base of the c

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

We would like to place an object 45.0cm in front of a lens and have its image appear on a screen 90.0cm behind the lens. What mu

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

the radii of curvature is 30 cm.

Explanation:

given,

object is place at = 45 cm

image appears at = 90 cm

focal length = ?

refractive index = 1.5

radii of curvature = ?

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

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{45} +\dfrac{1}{90}$

f = 30 cm

using lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{f} = (n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_1} -\dfrac{1}{R_2})$

$R_1 = R\ and\ R_2 = -R$

$\dfrac{1}{f} = (n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R} +\dfrac{1}{R})$

$R = (n -1)\ f$

$R = 2(1.5 -1)\ 30$

R = 30 cm

hence, the radii of curvature is 30 cm.
