Answer:
v = 15 m / s
Explanation:
In this exercise we are given the position function
x = 5 t²
and we are asked for the average velocity in an interval between t = 0 and t= 3 s, which is defined by the displacement between the time interval
let's look for the displacements
t = 0 x₀ = 0 m
t = 3 = 5 3 2
x_{f} = 45 m
we substitute
v = 15 m / s
The simplest way to do this is to set up equivalent fractions, like this-
= 
Solve for x by using cross multiplication.
40*2.2= 88
1*x=88
x=88
Therefore, the boy weighs 88lbs.

A) -2.0 m
Look at the ray diagram attached in the picture, where:
p identifies the location of the object
q identifies the location of the image
F identifies the focus of the mirror
Each tick represents 1 m
We have
p = 6.0 m is the distance of the object from the mirror
f = -3.0 m is the focal length
From the ray diagram, we see that q has a distance of 2.0 m from the mirror, and it's on the other side of the mirror compared to the object, so
q = -2.0 m
This can also be verified by using the mirror equation:
B) Upright and virtual
As we see from the picture, the image is upright, since it has same orientation as the object.
Also, we notice that the image is on the other side of the mirror, compared to the object. For a mirror,
- An image is said to be real if it is on the same side of the object
- An image is said to be virtual if it is on the opposite side of the mirror
Therefore, this means that the image is virtual.
