Ashoke and Ravi stood before a plane mirror at a distance of 3 m from it. Ashok walked 5 steps towards the mirror, each step measuring 30 cm. Ravi walked 8 steps away from the mirror, each step measuring 25 cm. The distance between Ravi and the image of Ashoke in the mirror is ______ m. |
|
Answer» 5.5 m After Ashok moved 5 steps towards the mirror, then his distance from the mirror =3m -5(30) cm =3 m=-1.5 m `=1.5 m`. After Ravi moved away from the mirro, his distance from the mirror =3m + 8(25) cm =3m + 2m =5 m Therefore , the distance between Ravi and the image of Ashok =1.5 m + 5 m =6.5 m. Hence, the correct option is (d) |

Keshav observed that the increase in the temperature of a body is given by T_(1) = 2t^(2) for the first 5 minutes and T_(2) = 3t for the next 5 minutes, where T_(1), T_(2) and 't' are temperatures in Fahrenheit, Celsius scales and time in minutes, respectively. If the initial temperature of the body is 20^(@)F and the relation between the Celsius and Fahrenheit scale is, then find the temperature of the body after 8 minutes in Celsius scale. |
|
Answer» `T_(1) = 2t^(2)` `2xx25` `= 50^(@)F` Initial TEMPERATURE = `20^(@)F` After 5 min = `20^(@) + 50^(@) = 70^(@)F` `(C)/(5) = (F-32)/(9)` `C = (70-32)/(9) xx 5` `=21^(@)C` Increase in temperature after next 3 minutes `T_(2) = 3t` `= 3 xx 3` `T_(2) = 9` implies Increase in temperature is `9^(@)C` Temperature after 8 minutes = 21 + 9 `=30^(@)C` |
