The mirror formula for curved mirrors is:
where
f is the focal length of the mirror
is the distance of the object from the mirror
is the distance of the image from the mirror
The sign convention that should be used in order to find the correct values is the following:
-
: positive if the mirror is concave, negative if the mirror is convex
-
: positive if the image is real (located on the same side of the object), negative if it is virtual (located on the opposite side of the mirror)
Answer:
A force
Explanation:
A push or a pull is an example of a force and can cause an object to speed up, slow down, etc.. Newton's laws tell us that 1- an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it 2- the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. 3- The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.. However, forces like gravity and friction can resist movement.
Answer:
44.8 m/s
Explanation:
Use the Initial Speed Formula:
InS = 2(d/t) - Final Speed
InS = 2(55/1,25) - 43.2
InS = 2.44 - 43,2
InS = 88 - 43,2
InS = 44.8 m/s
<h2><em>So there is two truths given. After an amount of time Ttotal (lets call it ‘t’):
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>The car’s speed is 25m/s
</em></h2><h2><em>The distance travelled is 75m
</em></h2><h2><em>Then we have the formulas for speed and distance:
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>v = a x t -> 25 = a x t
</em></h2><h2><em>s = 0.5 x a x t^2 -> 75 = 0.5 x a x t^2
</em></h2><h2><em>Now, we know that both acceleration and time equal for both truths. So we can say:
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>t = 25 / a
</em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = 75 / (0.5 x a) = 150 / a
</em></h2><h2><em>Since we don’t want to use square root at 2) we go squared for 1):
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = (25 / a) ^2 = 625 / a^2
</em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = 150 / a
</em></h2><h2><em>Since t has the same value for both truths we can say:
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>625 / a^2 = 150 / a
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Thus multiply both sides with a^2:
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>625 = 150 x a, so a = 625 / 150 = 4.17
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>We can now calculate t as well t = 25 * 150 / 625 = 6</em></h2>
