A steel ball bearing with a radius of 1.5 cm forms an image of an object that has been placed 1.1 cm away from the bearing’s sur

face. Determine the image distance and magnification. Is the image virtual or real? Is the image inverted or upright? Draw a ray diagram to confirm your results.

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

magnification, m = -v/u

= -(-0.446)/1.1

= 0.405 <<<<<<<<<---------------Answer

The image is virtual

The image is upright

given

R = 1.5 cm

object distance, u = 1.1 cm

focal length of the ball, f = -R/2

= -1.5/2

= -0.75 cm

let v is the image distance

use, 1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-0.75) - 1/(1.1)

v = -0.446 cm <<<<<---------------Answer

When Earth’s Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun during June, some would argue that the cause of our seasons is that th

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Distance of Earth from the Sun has nothing to do with the seasons only the tilt is responsible for the change in seasons.

Explanation:

The Earth's tilt does cause the seasons but the distance from the sun and has nothing to do with the change in seasons. In June, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted in the direction of the Sun during the Northern Hemisphere summer the Earth is actually farthest from the Sun. In January, when the Southern Hemisphere is tilted in the direction of the Sun during the Northern Hemisphere winter the Earth is actually closest to the Sun. This is caused due to the elliptical orbit of the Earth. So, distance of Earth from the Sun has nothing to do with the seasons.

While ice skating, you unintentionally crash into a person. Your mass is 60 kg, and you are traveling east at 8.0 m/s with respe

kaheart [24]

Answer:

6.18 m/s

Explanation:

Roller skate collision

The final direction of the system (me=M + person=P) velocity vector is at an angle; Ф, to the direction running south to north. Apply the component form of the impulse-momentum equation, firstly;

x-axis component form (+x east);

$P_{Miy}$ + $p_{Piy}$ + $j_{y}$ = $P_{Mfy}$ + $P_{pfy}$

$m_{Mu_{Miy}+ m_{pu_{piy}}+0=(m_{M}+m_{p})V_{f} sin$ Ф

60 ·8 + 0 = (60 + 80) $V_{f}sin$ Ф

480 = 140 $V_{f} sin$ Ф................. (I)

y-axis component form (+y north);

$P_{Mix}$ + $p_{Pix}$ + $j_{x}$ = $P_{Mfx}$ + $P_{pfx}$

$m_{Mu_{Mix}+ m_{pu_{pix}}+0=(m_{M}+m_{p})V_{f} cos$ Ф

0 + 80.9 = (60 + 80) $V_{f}cos$ Ф

720= 140 $V_{f}cos$ Ф

140Vf= $\frac{720}{cos}$ Ф......................................(2)

Substituting (2) into (1) to give the angle;

480 = 720tan Ф

Ф = arctan(0.67) =33.69°.......................(3)

Evaluating (1) with (3) gives the velocity magnitude

480 = 140Vfsin 33.69°

Vf=6.18 m/s

note 1:

This angle corresponds to a direction; 90° - 33.69° = 56.31° north of east.

Jim stands beside a wide river and wonders how wide it is. he spots a large rock on the bank directly across from him. he then w

LuckyWell [14K]

To solve this problem, we must imagine that Jim’s initial position, the position of the rock, and Jim’s final position all connects to form a triangle. Now we can imagine that the triangle is a right triangle with the 90° angle on the initial position.

The angle of 30° is directly opposite to the length of his total stride while the width of the river is the side adjacent to the angle. Therefore can use the tan function to solve for the width of the river:

tan θ = opposite side / adjacent side

tan 30 = total stride distance / width of river

where total stride distance = 65 * 0.8 = 52 m

width of river = 52 m / tan 30

<span>width of river = 90.07 m</span>

Consider an alcohol and a mercury thermometer that read exactly 0 oC at the ice point and 100 oC at the steam point. The distanc

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

No, both the thermometers will give the different reading.

Explanation:

Given,

Both thermometer has same ice point = $T_i\ =\ 0^o C$
Both thermometer has same steam point = $T_s\ =\ 100^o C$

Distance between the ice point and steam point in both the thermometer is same of 100 division,

All the data given in both the thermometers are same, but the material in the thermometer is different due to this the reading at 60^o C will differ in both the thermometer. Because the reading on both the thermometer is depended upon the thermal expansion of the material inside it, but both the materials are different. Due to this the rise of fluid in the thermometer, i,e,. the volume of the fluid material in the thermometer will depend upon the thermal expansion. Hence both the material alcohol and mercury have the different thermal expansion, therefore the rise of the fluid in the thermometer also differ in both the thermometer.

A 50 kg rocket generates 990 N of thrust. What will be its acceleration if it is launched straight up?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The acceleration of the rocket is 10 m/s².

Explanation:

Let the acceleration of the rocket be $a$ m/s².

Given:

Mass of the rocket is, $m=50\ kg$

Thrust force acting upward is, $F_{th}=990\ N$

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

Now, force acting in the downward direction is due to the weight of the rocket and is given as:

$W=mg=50\times 9.8=490\ N$

Now, net force acting on the rocket in upward direction is given as:

$F_{net}=F_{th}-W\\F_{net}=990-490=500\ N$

Therefore, from Newton's second law, net force acting on the rocket is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

$F_{net}=ma\\500=50a\\a=\frac{500}{50}=10\ m/s^2$

Therefore, the acceleration of the rocket is 10 m/s².
