Answer:

Explanation:

a) Magnification = image height / object height = -9 / 18 = -0.5

b) Magnification = - image distance / object distance = -0.5

so image distance = 0.5 object distance

1/focal length = 1/image distance + 1/object distance

1/6 = 1/(0.5 object distance) + 1/object distance

object distance = 18.0 cm

c) Image appears behind the lens.

Answer:

Explanation:

mag = ht i/ht o = -9/18 = -1/2

mag = -1/2 = -di/do

do = 2di

put in eqn

1/f = 1/di + 1/do

1/6 = 1/di + 1/2di

2di = 18

do = 18cm

image is behind lens

A force in the +x -direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 7.90 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal

dsp73

Answer:

$v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The equation of equlibrium for the box is:

$\Sigma F_{x} = 18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x = (7.90\,kg)\cdot a$

The formula for the acceleration, given in $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , is:

$a = \frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg}$

Velocity can be derived from the following definition of acceleration:

$a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}$

$v\, dv = a\, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {\frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg} } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} =\frac{18\,N}{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m}\, dx - \frac{0.530\,\frac{N}{m} }{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {x} \, dx$

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = (2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}$

$v =\sqrt{2\cdot[(2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}] }$

The speed after the box has travelled 17 meters is:

$v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}$

2) Two ice skaters have masses m1 and m2 and are initially stationary. Their skates are identical. They push against one another

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

m_1 / m_2 = sqrt (1 / 2)

Explanation:

Given:

- Initial velocity of both skaters V_i = 0

- Velocity of skater 1 after push = V_1

- Velocity of skater after push = V_2

- Distance traveled by skater 1 = s_1

- Distance traveled by skater 2 = s_2

- s_1 = 2*s_2

- Accelerations of both skaters to halt is equal

Find:

What is the ratio m1/m2 of their masses

Solution:

- Apply conservation of momentum for two skaters just before and after the push as follows:

P_i = P_f

0 = m_1*V_1 - m_2*V_2

- Evaluate: m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 )

- Apply Conservation of Energy on both skaters as follows:

- Skater 1:

0.5*m_1*V_1^2 = u_k*m_1*g*s_1

-Simplify: 0.5*V_1^2 = u_k*g*(2*s_2)

- Skater 2:

0.5*m_2*V_2^2 = u_k*m_2*g*s_2

-Simplify: 0.5*V_2^2 = u_k*g*s_2

- Divide the two energy equations for skaters:

(V_1 / V_2)^2 = 2

(V_2 / V_1)^2 = 1 / 2

- simplify: (V_2 / V_1) = sqrt (1 / 2)

-Hence from earlier momentum conservation results:

m_1 / m_2 = ( V_2 / V_1 ) = sqrt (1 / 2)
