An object is held 24.8 cm from a lens of focal length 16.0 cm. What is the magnification of the image?
Gwar [14]

Answer: 1.8

Explanation:

You are given

the object distance U = 24.8 cm

Focal length F = 16.0 cm

First find the image distance by using the formula:

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

Where V = image distance

Substitute u and f into the formula

1/16 = 1/24.8 + 1/v

1/ v = 1/16 - 1/24.8

1/v = 0.0625 - 0.04032258

1/v = 0.022177

Reciprocate both sides by dividing both sides by one

V = 45.09 cm

Magnification M is the ratio of image distance to the object distance. That is,

M = V/U

Substitute V and U into the formula

M = 45.09/24.8

M = 1.818

Magnification of the image is therefore equal to 1.8 approximately

Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

a.

\displaystyle a(0 )=8.133\ m/s^2

\displaystyle a(2)=2.05\ m/s^2

\displaystyle a(4)=0.52\ m/s^2

b.\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15

c. t=9.9 \ sec

Explanation:

Modeling With Functions

Careful measurements have produced a model of one sprinter's velocity at a given t, and it's is given by

\displaystyle V(t)=a(1-e^{bt})

For Carl Lewis's run at the 1987 World Championships, the values of a and b are

\displaystyle a=11.81\ ,\ b=-0.6887

Please note we changed the value of b to negative to make the model have sense. Thus, the equation for the velocity is

\displaystyle V(t)=11.81(1-e^{-0.6887t})

a. What was Lewis's acceleration at t = 0 s, 2.00 s, and 4.00 s?

To compute the accelerations, we must find the function for a as the derivative of v

\displaystyle a(t)=\frac{dv}{dt}=11.81(0.6887\ e^{0.6887t})

\displaystyle a(t)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887t}

For t=0

\displaystyle a(0)=8.133547\ e^o

\displaystyle a(0 )=8.133\ m/s^2

For t=2

\displaystyle a(2)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887\times 2}

\displaystyle a(2)=2.05\ m/s^2

\displaystyle a(4)=8.133547\ e^{-0.6887\times 4}

\displaystyle a(4)=0.52\ m/s^2

b. Find an expression for the distance traveled at time t.

The distance is the integral of the velocity, thus

\displaystyle X(t)=\int v(t)dt \int 11.81(1-e^{-0.6887t})dt=11.81(t+\frac{e^{-0.6887t}}{0.6887})+C

\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45201\ e^{-0.6887t})+C

To find the value of C, we set X(0)=0, the sprinter starts from the origin of coordinates

\displaystyle x(0)=0=>11.81\times1.45201+C=0

Solving for C

\displaystyle c=-17.1482\approx -17.15

Now we complete the equation for the distance

\displaystyle X(t)=11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15

c. Find the time Lewis needed to sprint 100.0 m.

The equation for the distance cannot be solved by algebraic procedures, but we can use approximations until we find a close value.

We are required to find the time at which the distance is 100 m, thus

\displaystyle X(t)=100=>11.81(t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t})-17.15=100

Rearranging

\displaystyle t+1.45\ e^{-0.6887t}=9.92

We define an auxiliary function f(t) to help us find the value of t.

\displaystyle f(t)=t+1.45\ e^{-0.687t}-9.92

Let's try for t=9 sec

\displaystyle f(9)=9+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 9}-9.92=-0.92

Now with t=9.9 sec

\displaystyle f(9.9)=9.9+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 9.9}-9.92=-0.0184

That was a real close guess. One more to be sure for t=10 sec

\displaystyle f(10)=10+1.45\ e^{-0.687\times 10}-9.92=0.081

The change of sign tells us we are close enough to the solution. We choose the time that produces a smaller magnitude for f(t).  

At t\approx 9.9\ sec, \text{ Lewis sprinted 100 m}

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}

a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}

a'=4\times a

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.
