How long is the image of a metrestick formed by a plane mirror?

1 answer:

7 0

A plane mirror doesn't change the apparent size or shape of things.

-- If the meter stick is held parallel to the mirror, or is lying on the mirror,
then its image in the mirror is 1 meter long.

-- If the meter stick is held perpendicular to the mirror, or is standing on
the mirror, or pointing directly at it, then its image in the mirror has no length.

A car accelerates in the +x direction from rest with a constant acceleration of a1 = 1.62 m/s2 for t1 = 20 s. At that point the

arsen [322]

Total displacement of the car: 405 m

Explanation:

The first part of the motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use the suvat equation

$s_1=ut_1+\frac{1}{2}a_1 t_1^2$

where:

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the car starts from rest)

$t_1 = 20 s$ is the time elapsed in the 1st part

$a_1=1.62 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the car in the 1st part

$s_1$ is the displacement of the car in the 1st part

Solving for $s_1$ ,

$s_1=0+\frac{1}{2}(1.62)(20)^2=324 m$

We can also find the velocity of the car after these 20 seconds using the equation:

$v_1 = u +a_1 t_1 = 0 + (1.62)(20)=32.4 m/s$

Now we can find the distance covered by the car in the 2nd part, where it decelerates after having seen the tree limb on the road. We can do it by using the suvat equation:

$s_2 = (\frac{v_1 + v_2}{2})t_2$

where:

$v_1=32.4 m/s$ is the initial velocity at the beginning of the 2nd phase

$v_2=0$ is the final velocity (the car comes to a stop)

$t_2=5 s$ is the time elapsed in the 2nd phase

Substituting,

$s_2=\frac{32.4+0}{2}(5)=81 m$

So, the total displacement of the car is

$s=s_1+s_2=324+81=405 m$

What causes light to bend when it moves from one transport medium to another

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another is called refraction. The angle and wavelength at which the light enters a substance and the density of that substance determine how much the light is refracted. The bending occurs because light travels more slowly in a denser medium.

hope this helped :))

How does light behave when a laser is pointed at a prism?

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

So when you shine a laser through a prism, there's nothing to be separated, and the light stays together.

another way, speed is a scalar value, while reloolg isa Which ONE of the following represents a toy car that moves at a higher a

erica [24]

Car A will have highest speed is 83.3m/s .

<h3>What is speed ? </h3>

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction.

The S.I unit is m/s . Speed is a scalar quantity it defines only magnitude not direction

speed = distance /time

In case of Car A ,

We have given distance 150Km in 3 min ,

First we have convert the distance km to m

150×1000m

then conversion of min to sec

38×60sec

speed = 15000/180

speed = 83.3m/sec

In case of Car B

we have given 800m in 150 min

lets convert the time into second

150×60

Speed = 800/150×60

speed = 0.88m/ s

In case of Car C

We have given here distance 250 Km and time in 8 hours

convert km to m

25000

and time into sec

88×60×60

speed = 0.86m/ s

Hence ,Car A has highest speed amongst them .
