The equation of the constructor of the geomeric optics allows to find the results for the distance and size of the objects are:

  • Distance from the mirror to the object is:  p = 13.3 cm
  • The height of the object is: h = 1.33 cm

The equation of the constructor of geometric optics describes the position of objects and their images for mirrors and lenses.

       \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}  

Where f is the focal length, p and q are the distances to the object and the image, respectively.

They indicate the focal length f = 10 cm, the distance to the image q = 40 cm, that the height s h ’=  4 cm.  In the attachment we see a scheme of the system.

Let's find the distance to the object.

        \frac{1}{p\frac{x}{y} } = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{q} \\\frac{1}{p}  = \frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{40}\\\frac{1}{p} =    0.075

       p = 13.3 cm

The magnification in the ratio of image size to object size.  The image is inverted so its height is negative.

        m = \frac{h'}{h} = - \frac{q}{p}\\h = - \frac{p}{q} \ h'\\h = - \frac{13.3}{40}\ (-4)

        h = 1.33 cm

In conclusion using the equation of the constructor we can find the results for the distance and size of the objects are:

  • Distance from the mirror to the object is  13.3 cm
  • The height of the object is 1.33 cm

A sphere moves in simple harmonic motion with a frequency of 4.80 Hz and an amplitude of 3.40 cm. (a) Through what total distanc
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

a)  the total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of its motion = 13.60 cm

b) The maximum speed is = 102.54 cm/s

The maximum speed occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

c)  The maximum magnitude of the acceleration of the sphere is = 30.93 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

Explanation:

Given that :

Frequency (f) = 4.80 Hz

Amplitude (A) = 3.40 cm

a)

The total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of simple harmonic motion is:

d = 4A   (where A is the Amplitude)

d = 4(3.40 cm)

d = 13.60 cm

Hence, the total distance traveled by the sphere during one cycle of its motion = 13.60 cm

b)

As we all know that:

x = Asin \omega t

Differentiating the above expression with respect to x ; we have :

\frac{d}{dt}(x) = \frac{d}{dt}(Asin \omega t)

v = A \omega cos \omega t

Assuming the maximum value of the speed(v) takes place when cosine function is maximum and the maximum value for cosine function is 1 ;

Then:

v_{max} = A \omega

We can then say that the maximum speed therefore occurs at the mean (excursion) position where ; x = 0  i.e at maximum excursion from equilibrium

substituting 2 \pi f for \omega in the above expression;

v_{max} = A(2 \pi f)

v_{max} = 3.40 cm (2 \pi *4.80)

v_{max} = 102.54 \ cm/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is = 102.54 cm/s

The maximum speed occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium.

c) Again;

v = A \omega cos \omega t

By differentiation with respect to  t;

\frac{d}{dt}(v) = \frac{d}{dt}(A \omega cos \omega t)

a =- A \omega^2 sin \omega t

The maximum acceleration of the sphere is;

a_{max} =A \omega^2

where;

w = 2 \pi f

a_{max} = A(2 \pi f)^2

where A= 3.40 cm = 0.034 m

a_{max} = 0.034*(2 \pi *4.80)^2

a_{max} = 30.93 \ m/s^2

The maximum magnitude of the acceleration of the sphere is = 30.93 m/s^2

The maximum acceleration occurs at maximum excursion from equilibrium where the oscillating sphere will have maximum acceleration at the turning points when the sphere has maximum displacement of x  = \pm A

A turntable that spins at a constant 80.0 rpmrpm takes 3.50 ss to reach this angular speed after it is turned on. Find its angul
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is <u>2.39 rad/s²</u>.

The number of degrees it rotates is <u>841.68 degrees</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial angular speed (ω₀) = 0 rad/s

Final angular speed in rpm (N) = 80.0 rpm

Time taken (t) = 3.50 s

First, let us determine the final angular speed in radians per second.

We know that,

\omega=\frac{2\pi N}{60}\ rad/s

Plug in the values and find the final angular speed, 'ω'. This gives,

\omega=\frac{2\pi\times 80.0}{60}=8.38\ rad/s

Now, using equation of motion for rotational motion, we have:

\omega=\omega_0+\alpha t\\\\\alpha\to angular\ acceleration

Plug in the given values and solve for α. This gives,

8.38=0+\alpha \times 3.50\\\\\alpha=\frac{8.38}{3.50}=2.39\ rad/s^2

Therefore, the angular acceleration is 2.39 rad/s².

Now, again using rotational equation of motion relating angular displacement, we have:

\omega^2=\omega_0^2+2\alpha\theta\\\\\theta=\frac{\omega^2-\omega_0^2}{2\alpha }

Plug in the given values and solve for 'θ'. This gives,

\theta=\frac{(8.38)^2-0}{2\times 2.39}\\\\\theta=\frac{70.2244}{4.78}=14.69\ rad

Convert radians to degrees using the conversion factor. This gives,

π radians = 180°

So, 1 radian =( 180 ÷ π ) degrees

Therefore, 14.69\ rad=14.69\times (\frac{180}{\pi})=841.68^\circ

So, the number of degrees it rotates is 841.68 degrees.

A light spring has a force constant of 70 N/m and is used to pull a 10 kg box on a horizontal frictionless surface. If the box h
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

82.4 cm

Explanation:

∑F = ma

kx cos θ = ma

x = ma / (k cos θ)

x = (10 kg) (5 m/s²) / (70 N/m cos 30.0°)

x = 0.824 m

x = 82.4 cm

A force of 6.0 N gives a 2.0 kg block an acceleration of 3.0
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

The Net Force of the object can be written by:

Fnet = ma

where m is the mass of the object in <em>kg</em>

a is the acceleration of the object in <em>m/s^2</em>

Hence by applying the formula we get:

Fnet = (2.0)(3.0)

= 6N

We also know that Net force is also the sum of all forces acting on an object. In this case Friction and the Pushing Force is acting on the object. Hence we can write that:

Fnet = Pushing Force + (-Friction)

6N = 6N - Friction

Friction = 0N

Hence the<u> </u><u>f</u><u>orce of friction is 0N.</u>
