C=40cm
f=C/2=40/2=20

m=3

$\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{f}{f-u}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3=\dfrac{20}{20-u}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(20-u)=20$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 60-3u=20$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 3u=40$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto u=13.3cm$

m=magnification
f is focal length
C is radius of curvature
u is object distance

You and a friend work in buildings five equal-length blocks apart, and you plan to meet for lunch. Your friend strolls leisurely

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Your friend is 2.143 blocks from the restaurant.

You are 2.857 blocks from the restaurant.

Explanation:

Let t be the time both you and your friend take to walk to the restaurant.

The distance (m) from your building to the restaurant is your walking time t times your speed v1

$s_1 = v_1t = 1.6t$

Similarly the distance (m) from your friend building to the restaurant:

$s_2 = v_2t = 1.2t$

Let b be the length (in m) of a block, the total distance of 5 blocks is 5b

$s_1 + s_2 = 5b$

$1.6t + 1.2t = 5b$

$2.8t = 5b$

$t = 5b/2.8 = 25b/14$

$s_2 = 1.2t = 1.2(25b/14) = 2.143b$

So your friend are 2.143b meters from the restaurant, since each block is b meters long, 2.143b meters would equals to 2.143b/b = 2.143 blocks. And you are 5 - 2.143 = 2.857 blocks from the restaurant.

In the 25 ft Space Simulator facility at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a bank of overhead arc lamps can produce light of int

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

a) <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>

b) <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>

c) <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>

d) <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Intensity of the light $I$ = 2500 W/m^2

speed of light $c$ <u> </u>= 3 x 10^8 m/s

a) we know that the pressure for for a totally absorbing surface is given as

$P_{abs}$ = $I/c$ = 2500/(3 x 10^8) = <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>

b) 1 atm = 101325 Pa

$P_{abs}$ = (8.33 x 10^-6)/101325 = <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>

c) for a totally reflecting surface

$P_{ref}$ = $2I/c$ = twice the value for totally absorbing

$P_{ref}$ = 2 x 8.33 x 10^-6 = <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>

d) 1 atm = 101325 Pa

$P_{ref}$ = 2 x 8.23 x 10^-11 = <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>

Which has a greater momentum? A 1200kg car traveling at 30m/s or a 2000kg truck traveling at 20m/s

Fittoniya [83]

the formula for momentum is velocity times mass

car :

1200 x 30 = 36000

truck:

2000 x 20 = 40000

Ans : truck has a greater momentum

A viola string with a fundamental frequency of D4 (293 Hz) is generally tuned using a tension of 49.0 N. However, just before a

Alborosie

Answer:

Explanation:

For fundamental frequency in a vibrating string , the formula is

n = 1 / 2L x √ ( T /m₁ )

n is frequency , L is length , T is tension and m₁ is mass per unit length .

For first string ,

293 = 1 / 2L x √ ( 49 N /m₁ )

For second string , let mass per unit length be m₂ .

196 = 1 / 2L x √ ( 49 N /m₂ ) ------ ( 1 )

To bring its frequency back to previous one let tension be T

293 = 1 / 2L x √ ( T /m₂ ) ------- ( 2 )

Dividing

293 / 196 = √ ( T /49 )

1.4948 = √ ( T /49 )

2.2344 = T /49

T = 109.48 N .
