Answer:

The instantaneous velocity at any time during the second hour of the trip is 60 mph east

(C) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance in first hour = 25 miles

Distance in second on hour = 60 miles

Instantaneous velocity :

Instantaneous velocity is equal to the distance divided by the time

We need to calculate the instantaneous velocity at any time during the second hour of the trip

Using formula of instantaneous velocity

.v = \dfrac{d}{t}

Where, d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v = \dfrac{60}{1}

v= 60\ miles/hr

The direction of the instantaneous velocity is in east .

Hence, The instantaneous velocity at any time during the second hour of the trip is 60 mph east

A teacher sets up a stand carrying a convex lens of focal length 15 cm at 20.5 cm mark on the optical bench. She asks the studen
Brums [2.3K]
We get the clearest image if there is no magnification. When we have no magnification the image and real object have the same size.
If we look at the diagram that I  attached we can see that:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i}{d_0}
Two triangles that I marked are similar and from this we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f}
The image and the object must have the same height so we get:
\frac{h_i}{h_0}=\frac{d_i-f}{f};h_i=h_0\\
1=\frac{d_i-f}{f}\\
d_i=2f
This tells how far the screen should be from the lens. 
The position of the screen on the optical bench is:
S=20.5cm+2f=20.5+2\cdot 15cm=50.5cm

An astronaut takes what he measures to be a 10-min nap in a space station orbiting Earth at 8000 m/s. A signal is sent from the
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

longer than

Explanation:

given,

time of nap = 10 min

speed of orbiting earth = 8000 m/s

c is the speed of light

using the equation of time dilation

t' = \dfrac{t}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}

now inserting all the values

t' = \dfrac{10}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{8000^2}{3\times 10^8)^2}}}

t' = \dfrac{10}{0.9999}

t' = 10.001 s

on solving the above equation we will get a value greater than 10minutes.

hence, On earth time of nap measured will be longer than 10 min
