Chapter 5: Q69P (page 1155)

You are in your car driving on a highway at 25m/swhen you glance in the passenger-side mirror (a convex mirror with radius of curvature 150 cm) and notice a truck approaching. If the image of the truck is approaching the vertex of the mirror at a speed of 1.9 m/swhen the truck is 2.0 m/sfrom the mirror, what is the speed of the truck relative to the highway?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The speed of the truck relative to the highway is 50.5444m/s.

Step by step solution

01

Determine the speed of the truck relative to the highway

The speed of the truck relative to the mirror is

Use the object-image relationship

Substitute the given values

Take a derivative of the object-image relationship

Substitute the values in the equation

Now, the truck velocity with respect to the ground equals truck velocity with respect to mirror plus mirror velocity with respect to ground

Therefore, the speed of the truck relative to the highway is 50.5444m/s.

Consider two antennas separated by 9.00m that radiate in phase at 120MHz, as described in Exercise . A receiver placed 150m from both antennas measures an intensity I0.The receiver is moved so that it is closer to one antenna than to the other. (a) What is the phase difference蠒between the two radio waves produced by this path difference? (b) In terms of I0, what is the intensity measured by the receiver at its new position?

A converging lens with a focal length of 70.0 cm forms an image of a 3.20-cm-tall real object that is to the left of the lens. The image is 4.50 cm tall and inverted. Where are the object and image located in relation to the lens? Is the image real or virtual?

A double-convex thin lens has surfaces with equal radii of curvature of magnitude 2.50cm . Using this lens, you observe that it forms an image of a very distant tree at a distance of 1.87cm from the lens. What is the index of refraction of the lens?

When a camera is focused, the lens is moved away from or toward the digital image sensor. If you take a picture of your friend, who is standing 3.90 m from the lens, using a camera with a lens with an 85-mm focal length, how far from the sensor is the lens? Will the whole image of your friend, who is 175 cm tall, fit on a sensor that is 24 mm * 36 mm?

Red light of wavelength 633 nm from a helium-neon laser passes through a slit 0.350 mm wide. The diffraction pattern is observed on a screen 3.00 m away. Define the width of a bright fringe as the distance between the minima on either side.

(a) What is the width of the central bright fringe?

(b) What is the width of the first bright fringe on either side of the central one?
