Wittaler [7]4 years ago

Explanation:

Image distance, v = -17 cm (-ve for virtual image)

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 39 cm

Focal length, f = -19.5 cm (-ve for a concave mirror)

(a) Using mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{-19.5}-\dfrac{1}{(-17)}  

u = 132.6 cm    

So, the object is placed 132.6 cm in front of the mirror.

(b) Magnification of the  mirror, m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-17}{132.6}

m = -0.128

Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is the position vs. time graph for an object in free fall a curve?
Ymorist [56]
Under free fall, the object is falling with a velocity that is increasing uniformly. Since the gradient of position-time graph reflects the velocity, the gradient is increasing, i.e. curve.

The speed of an object is given by v = 5.00t^2 + 4.00t where v is in m/s and t is in s. What is the acceleration of the object a
nexus9112 [7]
The speed is 
v = 5t² + 4t
where 
v is in m/s, and t in s.

The acceleration is the derivative of the velocity. It is
a = 10t + 4

When t = 2 s, the acceleration is
a(2) = 10*2 +4 = 24 m/s²

Answer: 24 m/s²

A motorboat traveling on a straight course slows
never [62]

Answer:

2.572 m/s²

Explanation:

Convert the given initial velocity and final velocity rates to m/s:

  • 65 km/h → 18.0556 m/s
  • 35 km/h → 9.72222 m/s

The motorboat's displacement is 45 m during this time.

We are trying to find the acceleration of the boat.

We have the variables v₀, v, a, and Δx. Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables.

  • v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • (9.72222)² = (18.0556)² + 2a(45)
  • 94.52156173 = 326.0046914 + 90a
  • -231.4831296 = 90a
  • a = -2.572

The magnitude of the boat's acceleration is |-2.572| = 2.572 m/s².

Which statement is NOT true about "p" orbitals? Which statement is NOT true about "p" orbitals? A 3p orbital has a higher energy
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Option E is correction. None of the above.

Explanation:

    ( 1 ) A 3p orbital has more energy than 2p orbital and this is the reason it is away from the nucleus as compare to 2p orbital. Energy of the shells increases as their distance increases from the nucleus.

    (2) p subshells are made up of three dumbbell-shaped orbitals

    (3) There are three atomic orbitals in a p subshell. They are px, py, and pz.

A box with a mass of 18 kg is pushed across the floor. It has coefficient of friction of 0.39. Calculate the force of friction i
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

68.8 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of box = 18 Kg

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Force of friction (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the normal force of the box. This is illustrated below:

Mass (m) of object = 18 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Normal force (N) =?

N = mg

N = 18 × 9.8

N = 176.4 N

Finally, we shall determine the force of friction experienced by the object. This is illustrated below:

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Normal force (N) = 176.4 N

Force of friction (F) =?

F = μN

F = 0.39 × 176.4

F = 68.796 ≈ 68.8 N

Thus, the box experience a frictional force of 68.8 N.
