AI Thread Summary
To capture a mirror selfie, the camera should be positioned at a distance that accounts for both the object and image distances. Since Usha is 2.3 meters in front of the mirror, the image distance is also 2.3 meters, making the total distance for the camera lens to focus 4.6 meters. This is calculated by adding the object distance and the image distance. Therefore, the correct focusing distance for the camera is indeed 4.6 meters. This ensures a clear and well-framed mirror selfie.

Usha wants to take a picture of her own image in a plane mirror. At what distance should the camera lens be focussed if it is positioned 2.3 m in front of the mirror?


is it 2.3*2 ?... 4.6m ??

In mirror the object distance = image distance. Find the distance between Usha and her image and focus the camera.
 
so is it 4.6m?, since distance in the mirror is 2.3 m and image distance is also 2.3m
 
correct
 
thankyou sir

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
