  • Flat mirror is given here
  • We know that in a flat mirror the distance of object from the mirror is equal to distance of image from the mirror i.e v=u
  • Only the side of image changes ime left is seemed right.

So the speed remains same 0.25m/s.

You exert a 100-N force on a pulley system to lift 300-N. What is the mechanical advantage of this system? How many sections of
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 3

Explanation:

You exert a 100-N force on a pulley system to lift 300-N.

The mechanical advantage of the system is given by the ratio of output force to the input force.

Here, output force = 300 N and input force = 100 N

Mechanical advantage,

m=\dfrac{300}{100}\\\\m=3

Mechanical advantage is 3 it means that there are 3 sections of rope support. Hence, this is the required solution.

A truck with a mass of 1370 kg and moving with a speed of 12.0 m/s rear-ends a 593 kg car stopped at an intersection. The collis
Elza [17]

Answer:

speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

mass of truck M = 1370 kg

speed of truck = 12.0 m/s

mass of car m = 593 kg

collision is elastic therefore,

Applying law of momentum conservation we have

momentum before collision = momentum after collision

1370×12 + 0( initially car is at rest) = 1370×v1+ 593×v2               ....(i)

Also for a collision to be elastic,

velocity of approach = velocity of separation

12 -0 = v2-v1                  ....(ii)

using (i) and (ii) we have

So speed of car after collision, v2 =16.1 m/s and of the truck, v1 = 4.6 m/s

A bucket filled with water has a mass of 54 kg and is hanging from a rope that is wound around a 0.050 m radius stationary cylin
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bucket = 54 kg

Radius = 0.050 m

We need to calculate the magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder

Using formula of torque

\tau=F\times r

\tau=mg\times r

Where, m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

\tau=54\times9.8\times0.050

\tau=26.46\ N-m

Hence, The magnitude of the torque the bucket produces around the center of the cylinder is 26.46 N-m.
