Explanation:
The two mirrors inclined to each other formed the first two images with are of the same size as the object while the third mirror is produced from the intersection of rays that emanated during the production of the first two images to produce a third image which is smaller than the object and there making the total number of images to be 3.
Hence this mirrors produces 3 images due to the third image formed from the intersection of the rays that produces the first two images.
The formula that relates the image produced by inclined mirror and the angle of inclination is expressed as:
number of images n = 360/θ - 1
θ is the angle of inclination of the two mirrors
n is the number of images
If the mirrors are inclined at right angles, then θ = 90°
Substitute into the formula;
n = 360/90 -1
n = 36/9 -1
n = 4-1
n = 3
One airplane is approaching an airport from the north at 181 kn/hr. A second airplane approaches from the east at 278 km/hr. Find the rate at which the distance between the planes changes when the southbound plane is 30 km away from the airport and the westbound plane is 15 km from airport.
Answer:
The value is [tex] \frac{dR}{dt} = -286.2 \ km/hr [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The speed of the airplane from the north is [tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = -181 \ km /hr[/tex]
The negative sign is because the direction is towards the south
The speed of the airplane from the east is [tex]\frac{dE}{dt} = -278 \ km/hr[/tex]
The negative sign is because the direction is towards the west
The distance of the southbound plane from the airport is [tex]N = 30 \ km[/tex]
The distance of the westbound plane is [tex]E = 15 \ km[/tex]
Generally the distance between the plane is mathematically represented using Pythagoras theorem as
[tex]R^2 = N^2 + E^2[/tex]
Next differentiate implicitly this equation to obtain the rate at which the distance between the planes changes
So
[tex]2R\frac{dR}{dt} = 2N \frac{dN}{dt} + 2E\frac{dE}{dt}[/tex]
Here
[tex]R = \sqrt{N^2 + E^2}[/tex]
=> [tex]R = \sqrt{30^2 + 15^2}[/tex]
=> [tex]R = \sqrt{30^2 + 15^2}[/tex]
=> [tex]R =33.54 \ m [/tex]
[tex]2(33.54) * \frac{dR}{dt} = 2( 30)*(-181) + 2*15*(-278)[/tex]
=> [tex] 67.08 * \frac{dR}{dt} = -19200[/tex]
=> [tex] \frac{dR}{dt} = -286.2 \ km/hr [/tex]
The rate of change of the distance between the planes is 286.23 km/hr.
The given parameters;
speed of the airplane from North, dn/dt = 181 Km/hspeed of the airplane from the East, de/dt = 278 km/hnorth distance, n = 30 kmeast distance, e= 15 kmThe distance between the two planes is calculated by applying Pythagoras theorem as shown below;
[tex]d^2 = n^2 + e^2\\\\d = \sqrt{n^2 + e^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{30^2 + 15^2} \\\\d = 33.54 \ km[/tex]
The rate of change of the distance between the planes is calculated as follows;
[tex]d^2 = e^2 + n^2\\\\2\frac{dd}{dt} = 2e\frac{de}{dt} + 2n\frac{dn}{dt} \\\\d\frac{dd}{dt} = e\frac{de}{dt} + n\frac{dn}{dt}\\\\(33.54) \frac{dd}{dt} = (15)(278) \ + (30)(181)\\\\(33.54) \frac{dd}{dt} = 9600\\\\\frac{dd}{dt} = \frac{9600}{33.54} \\\\\frac{dd}{dt} = 286.23 \ km/hr[/tex]
Thus, the rate of change of the distance between the planes is 286.23 km/hr.

Derivation 1.2 showed how to calculate the work of reversible, isothermal expansion of a perfect gas. Suppose that the expansion is reversible but not isothermal and that the temperature decreases as the expansion proceeds. (a) Find an expression
Answer:
(a) The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J
(b) The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K
(c) The entropy change of the gas is equal to zero.
Explanation:
(a) The expression used for work done in reversible isothermal expansion will be,
where,
w = work done = ?
n = number of moles of gas = 4 mole
R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole K
T = temperature of gas = 240 K
= initial volume of gas =
= final volume of gas =
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:
The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J
(b) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas.
As per first law of thermodynamic,
where,
= internal energy
q = heat
w = work done
As we know that, the term internal energy is the depend on the temperature and the process is isothermal that means at constant temperature.
So, at constant temperature the internal energy is equal to zero.
Thus, w = q = 17537.016 J
Formula used for entropy change:
The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K
(c) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas when the expansion is reversible and adiabatic instead of isothermal.
As we know that, in adiabatic process there is no heat exchange between the system and surroundings. That means, q = constant = 0
So, from this we conclude that the entropy change of the gas must also be equal to zero.

HELP PLS7. A steel ball is dropped from a height of 100 meters. Which velocity-time graph best describes the
motion of the ball?
Answer:
Option C.
Explanation:
To know which velocity-time graph best describes the motion of the ball, let us calculate the velocity of the ball and the time taken for the ball to get the ground. This can be obtained as follow:
1. Determination of the velocity.
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Height (h) = 100 m
Final velocity (v) =.?
v² = u² + 2gh
v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 100)
v² = 0 + 1960
v² = 1960
Take the square root of both side.
v = √(1960)
v = 44.27 m/s
2. Determination of the time taken.
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Height (h) = 100 m
Time (t) =.?
h = ½gt²
100 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
100 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.9
t² = 100 / 4.9
Take the square root of both side
t = √(100 / 4.9)
t = 4.52 s
From the above illustration,
Initial time (t1) = 0 s
Final time (t2) = 4.52 s
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 44.27 m/s
Thus, we can see that as the time increase, the velocity also increase. Therefore, option C gives the correct answer to the question.

0 = 12 + (a)(15)
0 = 15a + 12
a = -12 / 15
a = -4 / 5 m/s²

Which of the above objects is moving the fastest?
A.
All 3 objects are moving at the same speed.
B. B
C. C
D. A
Answer:
Correct choice: D. Object A is the fastest
Explanation:
In a distance vs time graph, the distance is plotted vertically, and the time is plotted horizontally.
The diagram shows three graphs of objects A, B, and C.
The graph of A shows the object traveled 12 meters in 3 seconds, for a speed of 12/3= 4 m/s.
The graph of B shows the object traveled 8 meters in 4 seconds for a speed of 8/4=2 m/s.
Finally, the object C travels 4 meters in 4 seconds, for a speed of 4/4= 1 m/s
Thus, the fastest object is A.

a) if the system is released from rest what will be its acceleration
Answer:
0.7 m/s²
Explanation:
The coefficient of static friction between m1 and the horizontal surface is 0.50. and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.30.
(a) if the system is released from rest what will be its acceleration
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Coefficient of Kinetic Friction = μk = 0.30
m1 = 10kg
m2 = 4.0kg
The formula to solve question a is given as:
a = acceleration at rest
m2g- μk m1g = (m1+ m2) a
Making a the subject of the formula:
a = (m2g- μk×m1g )/(m1+ m2)
a = [(4.0 kg × 9.81m/s²) – (0.30 ×9.81 × 10) ]/(10+4)
a = 0.7 m/s²

Research has shown that this type of interview is the most effective in predicting later job
performance.
Answer:
Situational Interview
Explanation:
A situational interview is about as close to the real job as it gets. During this type of interview, candidates may be presented with a visual or audio simulation of a scenario and asked to respond to it. They are asked to analyze a problem and profer suggestions on how they would handle it.
If the candidate has solved similar problems in the past, it will come to the fore.
If they haven't then the best outcome is that it will tell the interviewers how well the candidate is able to solve similar problems.
An example of a Situational Interview question is this:
How would you handle an angry customer who for no justifiable reason has decided to create a problematic scene to disrupt the business?
Because Situational Interviews are about behavioral responses (present, past, and future), they are powerful tools in determining or predicting future job performance. An interviewing technique that is developed using this methodology is called the S.T.A.R.
This is an acronym for Situation, Task, Action, Result.
Situation: the candidate is asked to present a challenging situation that occurred recently. This tests what the candidate sees as a challenging situation.
Task: The candidate based on the situation is asked to identify what they need to do to remedy the problem. This tells the interviewer(s) whether or not the candidate can think up a solution for the problem.
Action: Here they define the actual steps taken to resolve the problem
Result: The candidate against the above is required to give the result gotten
Action and Result tell the interviewer the quality of the candidate's ability to follow through and achieve the intended results. This also judges the quality of execution in terms of cost and time. The candidate with the lowest cost and time and the highest quality of outcome is considered the best.

True.or false A railroad track runs southwest to northeast.
Answer:
ns for high-speed rail in the United States date back to the High Speed Ground Transportation Act of 1965. Various state and federal proposals have followed. Despite being one of the world's first countries to get high-speed trains (the Metroliner service in 1969), it failed to spread. Definitions of what constitutes high-speed rail vary, including a range of speeds over 110 mph (180 km/h) and dedicated rail lines. Inter-city railwith top speeds between 90 and 125 mph (140 and 200 km/h) is sometimes referred to in the United States as higher-speed rail.[1]
Amtrak's Acela Express (reaching 150 mph, 240 km/h), Silver Star, Northeast Regional, Keystone Service, Vermonter and certain MARC Penn Line express trains (all five reaching 125 mph, 201 km/h) are the only high-speed services in the country.
As of 2020, the California High-Speed Rail Authority is working on the California High-Speed Rail project and construction is under way on sections traversing the Central Valley. The Central Valley section is planned to open in 2029 and Phase I is planned for completion in 2031.[2]

Explanation:
The horizontal surface on which the block slides is frictionless. The speed of the block before it touches the spring is 6.0 m/s. How fast is the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed 15 cm
Answer:
The final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is approximately 3.674 meters per second.
Explanation:
The spring constant is 2000 newtons per meter. Let consider the spring-block system, from Principle of Energy Conservation we can represent it by the following model:
[tex]U_{k,1}+K_{1} = U_{k,2}+K_{2}[/tex]
[tex]K_{2} = K_{1}+(U_{k,1}-U_{k,2})[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Where:
[tex]K_{1}[/tex], [tex]K_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final kinetic energies of the block, measured in joules.
[tex]U_{k,1}[/tex], [tex]U_{k,2}[/tex] - Initial and final elastic potential energy, measured in joules.
And we expand the equation above by definitions of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{2}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v_{1}^{2} + \frac{1}{2}\cdot k\cdot (x_{1}^{2}-x_{2}^{2})[/tex]
[tex]v_{2} = \sqrt{v_{1}^{2}+\frac{k}{m}\cdot (x_{1}^{2}-x_{2}^{2}) }[/tex] (Eq. 1b)
Where:
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the block, measured in kilograms.
[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.
[tex]v_{1}[/tex], [tex]v_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final velocities of the block, measured in meters per second.
[tex]x_{1}[/tex], [tex]x_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final positions of spring, measured in meters.
If we know that [tex]v_{1} = 6\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]k = 2000\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]m = 2\,kg[/tex], [tex]x_{1} = 0\,m[/tex] and [tex]x_{2} = 0.15\,m[/tex], the final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is:
[tex]v_{2} = \sqrt{\left(6\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(\frac{2000\,\frac{N}{m} }{2\,kg} \right)\cdot [(0\,m)^{2}-(0.15\,m)^{2}]}[/tex]
[tex]v_{2}\approx 3.674\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is approximately 3.674 meters per second.
A person walks 2.00 m east, then turns and goes 4.00 m west, then turns and goes back 1.00 m east. what is the distance and displacement
Explanation:
Let east = E, and, west = opposite to east = - E.
Here, displacement:
=> 2m east + 4m west + 1m east
=> 2E + 4(-E) + 1E
=> 2E - 4E + 1E
=> - 1E
=> 1(-E)
=> 1m west
And, distance,
=> 2m + 4m + 1m = 7m
The distance of a person is 7 m and the displacement of the person is 1m west.
To find the distance and displacement, the given values are,
A person walks 2.00 m east, then turns and goes 4.00 m west, then turns and goes back 1.00 m east.
What is the distance and the displacement?Displacement:
The displacement is shortest distance between initial and final position or we can say it is the straight line distance between initial and final position.If object moves in a straight line path without any turn then the path length and the displacement is always same.Distance:
The distance is the total path length of the object while it will move from initial to final position.If the object move on curved path then displacement is smaller than the distance moved by the object.Let us consider East = E and west = opposite to east = - E.
Calculating the displacement:
= 2m east + 4m west + 1m east
= 2E + 4(-E) + 1E
= 2E - 4E + 1E
= - 1E
= 1(-E)
= 1m west.
The displacement is 1m west.
Now calculating the distance,
= 2m + 4m + 1m
= 7m
The distance is 7m.
Thus, the displacement and the distance is found as 1 m west and 7m.

It took 50 joules to push a chair 5 meters across the floor. With what force was the chair pushed?
Answer:
The chair was pushed with 10 N.
Explanation:
The chair was pushed with 50 Joules.
Work = Force * Distance
50 J = F * 5m
F = 50 / 5 = 10N
The chair was pushed with 10 N.
The chair was pushed with 10 N force.
What is Work done?Work is defined as the measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force, at least part of which is applied in the direction of displacement.
If the force is constant then work can be calculated by multiplying the length of the path by the component of the force acting along the path, which is expressed mathematically as work W equal to the force f over a distance d, or W = fd.
So, for above given information,
Work done= 50 joules
Distance covered by the chair = 5m
Then, Force= W/d
=50/5= 10N
Thus, the chair was pushed with 10 N force.

Answer:
The value is [tex]t = 56.68 \ s [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The rating of the hoist motor is [tex]k = 159hp = 159 *746 =118614 \ W[/tex]
The percentage of it power used is [tex]z = 0.72 * 118614=85402.08 \ W[/tex]
The mass of the load is m = 5550 kg
The distance is h = 89.0 m
The potential energy required to lift the load through that distance is
[tex]E = m * g * h[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 5550 * 9.8 * 89.0[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 4840710 \ J[/tex]

If 0.5 kg of this material is used in a transformer core, how long would it have to operate at a frequency of 60 cps to heat up 1
Answer:
Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question
answer : 49 seconds
Explanation:
considering only Hysteresis loss
we have to calculate the Area affected/under the Hysteresis loss
= volume * area
= 4 * ( 1.5 * 20 ) = 120 tesla. A/m
next we calculate the volume of the material
= mass of material / density
= 500 grams / 7.9 g/cm^3 = 6.33 * 10^-5 m^3
next we calculate the heat lost per cycle
= 6.33 * 10^-5 m^3 * 120 = 0.007596 joules
The total heat required to raise temperature by 1°c
= Cp * ΔT * n
= 3R * n * ΔT = 3(8.314) * 8.95 * 1 = 223.23 Joules
where n = number of moles = 500grams / 55.85 = 8.95moles
ΔT = 1
Therefore the time required to have to operate at a frequency of 60 cps
= Total heat required / heat lost per cycle
=( 223.23 / 0.007596 ) 60 cps
= 489.796 seconds ≈ 49 seconds
Find the linear velocity of a point moving with uniform circular motion, if the point covers a distance s in the given amount of time t. s
Answer:
The linear velocity is represented by the following expression: [tex]v = \frac{s}{t}[/tex]
Explanation:
From Rotation Physics we know that linear velocity of a point moving with uniform circular motion is:
[tex]v = r\cdot \omega[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Where:
[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of rotation of the particle, measured in meters.
[tex]\omega[/tex] - Angular velocity, measured in radians per second.
[tex]v[/tex] - Linear velocity of the point, measured in meters per second.
But we know that angular velocity is also equal to:
[tex]\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}[/tex] (Eq. 2)
Where:
[tex]\theta[/tex] - Angular displacement, measured in radians.
[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.
By applying (Eq. 2) in (Eq. 1) we get that:
[tex]v = \frac{r\cdot \theta}{t}[/tex] (Eq. 3)
From Geometry we must remember that circular arc ([tex]s[/tex]), measured in meters, is represented by:

please mark me brainiest I would really appreciate it.
A designer is creating an obstacle for an obstacle course where a person starts on a moveable platform of height H from the ground. The person grabs a rope of length L and swings downward. At the instant the rope is vertical, the person lets go of the rope and attempts to reach the far side of a water-filled moat. The left side of the moat is directly below the position where the person will let go of the rope. The designer runs several tests in which the rope has different lengths and moves the platform such that the rope is always initially horizontal. The designer notices that the person cannot land on the other side if the length L is very short. The designer also notices that the person also cannot land on the other side if the length L is very close to the height H.
Assume the size of the person is much smaller than the lengths L and H. Let D represent the horizontal distance from below the release point to where the person lands.
Required:
a. Why does the person land in the moat if the rope's length is very short?
b. Why does the person land in the moat if the length is nearly the same as the height of the platform?
Answer:
* when L → H chord too long
in this case we see that the speed to cross the well grows a lot (it goes towards infinity) therefore we do not have enough speed in the movement to cross
* when L → 0 very short string
the speed of the platform is very small, so we do not have the minimum required value
vox = √ (g / (2 (H)) D
Explanation:
For this exercise we are going to solve it using conservation of energy to find the velocity of the body and the launch of projectiles to find the velocity to cross the well.
Let's start with the projectile launch
as the body leaves the vertical its velocity must be horizontal
x = v₀ₓ t
y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²
when reaching the ground its height of zero (y = 0) and the initial vertical velocity is zero
t = √ 2 y₀ / g
we substitute
x = vox √2y₀ / g
v₀ₓ = √(g / 2y₀) x
In the exercise, it tells us that the width of the well is D (x = D) and the initial height is the height of the platform minus the length of the rope (I = H - L)
v₀ₓ = √(g /(2 (H -L)) D
this is the minimum speed to cross the well.
Now let's use conservation of energy
starting point. On the platform
[tex]Em_{o}[/tex] = U = m g H
final point. At the bottom of the swing
Em_{f} = K + U = 1 / 2m v² + m g (H -L)
as there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserved
Em_{o} = Em_{f}
m g H = 1 / 2m v² + m g (H -L)
v = √ (2gL)
let's write our two equations
the minimum speed to cross the well
v₀ₓ = √ (g /(2 (H -L)) D
the speed at the bottom of the oscillatory motion
v = √ (2g L)
we analyze the extreme cases
* when L → H chord too long
in this case we see that the speed to cross the well grows a lot (it goes towards infinity) therefore we do not have enough speed in the movement to cross
* when L → 0 very short string
the speed of the platform is very small, so we do not have the minimum required value
vox = √ (g / (2 (H)) D
From this analysis we see that there is a range of lengths that allows us to have the necessary speeds to cross the well
V₀ₓ = v
g / (2 (H -L) D² = 2g L
4 L (H- L) = D²
4 H L - 4 L2 - D² = 0
L² - H L - D² / 4 = 0
let's solve the quadratic equation
L = [H ± √ (H2-D2)] / 2
we assume that H> D
L = ½ H [1 + - RA (1 - (D / H) 2)]
The two values of La give the range of values for which the two speeds are equal
A) The person lands in the moat if the rope's length is very short because :
The speed of the platform is less than the required minimum speedB) The person lands in the moat if the rope length is similar to the height of the platform because :
The speed required to cross the moat approaches infinityFollowing the assumptions;
size of the person is much smaller than L and H
D = horizontal distance
The conditions that will cause the person to land on the moatThe person will land in the moat when the rope's length is very short because as the rope reduces in length the speed reduces as well such that the speed of the platform goes below the required minimum speed which will enable the person cross over. while As the magnitude of the length tends towards the same magnitude of the height the speed required to cross the moat increases towards infinity and this speed cannot be attained by the person hence he will land in the moat.Hence we can conclude that The person lands in the moat if the rope's length is very short because The speed of the platform is less than the required minimum speed and The person lands in the moat if the rope length is similar to the height of the platform because,the speed required to cross the moat approaches infinity.
