When a mirror is rotated . . .
-- The incident ray doesn't turn. It's just the line from the source to the mirror.
It would be there, in the same place, even if there was no mirror.
-- The normal turns. It's the line perpendicular to the mirror, so it must turn
with the mirror.
-- Since the normal tuns and the incident ray doesn't, the angle between them
must change. And since the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of
the incident ray, the reflected ray must also turn.
Answer:
a) The distance of spectator A to the player is 79.2 m
b) The distance of spectator B to the player is 43.9 m
c) The distance between the two spectators is 90.6 m
Explanation:
a) Knowing the time it takes the sound to reach both spectators, we can calculate their position relative to the player, using this equation:
x = v * t
where:
x = position of the spectators
v = speed of sound
t = time
Then, the position for spectator A relative to the player is:
x = 343 m/s * 0.231 s = 79.2 m
b)For spectator B:
x = 343 m/s * 0.128 s
x = 43.9 m
The distance of spectator A and B to the player is 79.2 m and 43.9 m respectively.
c) To calculate the distance between the spectators, please see the attached figure. Notice that the distance between the spectators is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the sightline of both. We already know the longitude of the two sides. Then, using Pythagoras theorem:
(Distance AB)² = A² + B²
(Distance AB)² = (79.2 m)² + (43.9 m)²
Distance AB = 90. 6 m
Answer:
D. On average, a woman's athletic ability peaks at a later age than a man's.
Explanation:
Answer:
Power = 50204 [watts]
Explanation:
We know that the power is defined by the following expression:
Power = Work/time
where:
Power [watts]
time [seconds]
The work done will be the following:
Work = Force * distance [Joules]
Force[Newtons]
distance[meters]
Force = mass* gravity
Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]
Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]
Therefore
Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]
