The global positioning system (GPS) uses electromagnetic waves sent between computer devices on Earth and satellites in space to automatically determine the exact position of the computer device on Earth. In order to create this technology, engineers had to apply Einstein’s theory of relativity, which explains how electromagnetic waves change direction in space.

An object is to the left of a convex mirror. Describe the two rays needed to indicate the location and height of the image. Additionally, state what side of the mirror the image is on and whether it is real or virtual.

Answers

Answer:

1) a ray parallel to the optical axis that after passing through the lens passes through the focal length

2) a ray that passes through the center of curvature, this ray does not have any deviation

real image   d_{objet} > f

Explanation:

In geometric optics, you can find the position of the image by geometric method, we draw two rays

1) a ray parallel to the optical axis that after passing through the lens passes through the focal length

2) a ray that passes through the center of curvature, this ray does not have any deviation

3) a ray that passes through the focal length and when passing the lens comes out horizontally

The interceptor point is where the image is

To determine if the image is real or virtual, when the object is at a greater distance than the focal length, the image is real and when it is at a shorter distance, the image is virtual.

The virtual image is formed on the same side as the object

real image   d_{objet} > f

Usain bolt ran the 200m race within 19.19 seconds. Calculate the speed of Usain bolt during the race

Answers

Answer: [tex]10.42\ m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

Usain Bolt ran the race with a length [tex]200\ m[/tex]

Time is taken to complete it [tex]t=19.19\ s[/tex]

We know, [tex]\text{Distance}=\text{speed}\times \text{time}[/tex]

Insert the values

[tex]\Rightarrow 200=v\times 19.19\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{200}{19.19}\\\\\Rightarrow v=10.42\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of Usain Bolt is [tex]10.42\ m/s[/tex]

Ball 1 with an initial speed of 14 m/s has a perfectly elastic collision with ball 2 that is initially at rest. After, the speed of ball 2 is 21 m/s. What will be the speed of ball 2 if the initial speed of ball 1 is doubled

Answers

Answer:

"42 m/s" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of Ball 1,

= 14 m/s

Now,

If the initial speed of ball 1 is doubled, then the speed of ball 2 will be:

⇒ [tex](V_{fx})_2=\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}(v_1x_1)[/tex]

hence,

Doubling ([tex]v_1x_1[/tex]) will double [tex](V_{fx})_2[/tex],

⇒ [tex](V_{fx})_2=2\times 21[/tex]

              [tex]=42 \ m/s[/tex]

Answers

Answer: "People will say the length of a day is determined by just the rotation rate of a planet, but that isn’t entirely true. The orbit around its sun also factors in. What we define as a day is the time between when the Sun is highest in the sky until the next time the Sun is at the highest point in the sky. This isn’t just the time it takes the Earth to rotate once on its axis, though. This is because, as the Earth is rotating, it’s also moving relative to the Sun"

B - Person A's chair rolls backwards.

Explanation:

This can be seen simply through the Conservation of Momentum. When the ball is thrown to be, the ball's momentum(+m) is transfererd to B, so B's chair moves forward(think about it - it makes sense, doesn't it?), meaning A's chair moves backwards.

In the scenario where the negatively charged particle is placed in a uniform electric field, the direction will be C. South.

In a physics lab, Ray Zuvlite arranges two mirrors with a right angle orientation as shown. Ray then directs a laser line at one of the mirrors. The light reflects off both mirrors as shown. If angle A is 25°, determine the what is the angle measure of angles B, C, and D?

Answers

Answer:

B = 25°

C = 65°

D = 25°

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The orientation of the two mirrors = At right angle to each other

The laser light is directed at one of the mirror

The measure of angle, A = 25°

The measures of angle B, C, and D are found as follows;

We have;

∠A = ∠B = 25°, by angle of incidence equals angle of reflection

∠B = 25°

∠B + ∠C = 90° by sum of the acute angles of a right triangle

25° + ∠C = 90°

∴ ∠C = 90° - 25° = 65°

∠C = 65°

∠E = ∠C = 65° by angle of incidence equals angle of reflection

∴ ∠E = 65°

Line 'L' is perpendicular to the second mirror, therefore, the angle between line 'L' and the second mirror = 90° = ∠E + ∠D

∠E + ∠D = 90°,  by angle sum property

Therefore;

65° + ∠D = 90°

∴ ∠D = 90° - 65° = 25°

∠D = 25°

Suppose you have 10 helium-filled party balloons tied to a digital camera, so you can take photos of the core of a storm. With 10 balloons the camera will slowly but surely rise. As a storm approaches the atmospheric pressure drops. Assuming the air temperature and density are the same, the volume of each balloon will increase. When you let go, the speed of ascent will be

Answers

Answer:

 a = 10 ρ_air g [tex]\frac{\Delta P}{m P_o}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let's solve this problem in parts, with the initial data the camera rises slowly, so we can assume that at constant speed, we apply the equilibrium condition

         B - W = 0

The thrust is given by Archimedes' law

         B = rho_aire g V_body

The volume of the body can be found from the ideal gas ratio

         P V = n R T

let's use the subscript "o" for the initial concisions

         V₀ = (nR) T₀/P₀               1

we substitute

          10 ρ_air g (nR) T₀ /P₀ = W

when the storm approaches the pressure decreases, P

       

If we use the ideal gas equation

           V = (nR) T₀ / P

we combine this equation with equation 1

            V = V₀P₀ / P

if we write the pressure

             P = P₀ -ΔP

             

we substitute

            V = [tex]\frac{V_oP_o}{P_o - \Delta P} =V_o \ ( 1 - \frac{\Delta P}{P_o} )^{-1}[/tex]

we expand serie  and eliminate higher order terms

            V = V₀ ([tex]1+ \frac{\Delta P}{Po}[/tex])

with this expression we can write the thrust

             B = B₀ + ΔB

               

Newton's second law for the new conditions is

             B - W = m a

             (B₀ + ΔB) - W = ma

              ΔB = m a

              a = ΔB / m

              a = 10 ρ_air g [tex]\frac{\Delta P}{m P_o}[/tex]

This is the initial acceleration of the camera
