An object is located 13.5 cm in front of a convex mirror, the image being 7.05 cm behind the mirror. a second object, twice as tall as the first one, is placed in front of the mirror, but at a different location. the image of this second object has the same height as the other image. how far in front of the mirror is the second object located?

Second object is located at 42.03 cm in front of mirror

Explanation:

In this question we have given,

object distance from convex mirror ,u=-13.5cm

Image distance from convex mirror,v=7.05cm

let focal length of convex mirror be f

we have to find the distance of second object from convex mirror

we know that u, v and f are related by following formula

.............(1)

put values of u and v in equation (1)

we got,

we have given that

second object is twice as tall as the first object

and image height of both objects are same

it means

.............(2)

we know that

therefore,

.................(3)

put values of v and u in equation 3

therefore from equation 2

we know that

.................(4)

put value of and in equation 4

we know that U,V and f are related by following formula

.............(5)

put values of f and U in equation 5

we got

Therefore,

U=-10.91\times 3.85

U=-42.03 cm

Second object is located at 42.03 cm in front of mirror

the ima (higher than 1m) will be greater than the ima with the height of 1m.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
