Answer:
The position is 8.18cm from the mirror.
Nature is b=virtual
Size is 1.82cm
Explanation:
Note that for a convex mirror, the image distance and the focal length are negative;
Given
Object height H0 = 4cm
object distance u = 18cm
Radius of curvature R = 30cm
Since f = R/2
f = 30/2
f = -15cm
Recall that:
Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the image is a virtual image.
To get the size:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg
It is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.
We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is
F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N
Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.
W = 3.266 N
The mass of the meters stick is :
So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.
Answer:
7.6 s
Explanation:
Considering kinematics formula for final velocity as
Where v and u are final and initial velocities, a is acceleration and s is distance moved.
Making v the subject then
Substituting 8.8 m/s for u, 138 m for s and 2.45 m/s2 for a then
Also, v=u+at and making t the subject of the formula
Substituting 27.45 m/s for v, 8.8 m/s for u and 2.45 m/s for a then
Therefore, it needs 7.6 seconds to travel
