Undergrad Why Does the Image in a Plane Mirror Appear to Move at a Different Speed?
In the first case 4D. In the second case 2D. Ah, I see... Just as the car approaches the truck, so does the image of the car in the mirror, therefore the apparent distance covered is 2 times the actual distance covered by the car. So, can we conclude that since 2 = d/t, 2d/t= 2(2)=4 ? -

Undergrad Why Does the Image in a Plane Mirror Appear to Move at a Different Speed?
Suppose a driver his reversing his car with a speed of 2m/s, the driver sees in his rear-view mirror (which is a plane mirror) the image of a truck parked behind his car. What will be the speed at which the image of the truck appears the driver? According to me, since the distance between the... -

Relating increament of speed to time
Aditya rides a bicycle from town P to town Q with a constant speed. If he increases his speed by 3 m/s, he will arrive to town Q three times faster. How many times faster will Aditya arrive to town Q, if he increases his speed by 6 m/s s=\frac{d}{t} [b] Let his constant speed be x...- MoniMini

High School Mixing water at different temperatures
Thanks a TON! You explained it really well. I got the correct anser. I don't know how to type in the mathematical symbols and all, but on paper I calculated and the result was 63.8°C which is the correct answer. Thanks again :) ~MoniMini- MoniMini
