Of course a child cannot but a child grows into an adult and may well become a father of a son Another example is "The King is dead, long live the King" Again this seems to be contradictory but
- 2. A boy stands 10 m in front of a plane mirror . then be . . . - Socratic
D 6 The image formed in a plane mirror is as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of it, i e the distance between the object and the mirror u is the same as the distance between the mirror and the image v So,here,given u= 10 hence v=10 so distance between the image and the boy is u+v or 20 meters If the boy moves 3 meters towards the mirror,then, u=10-3 or 7 So,v =7 as well Now
- A man starts at point A, somewhere on cartesian coordinate . . . - Socratic
A man starts at point A, somewhere on cartesian coordinate system He goes 4 units to the right and then he goes 6 units upwards Finally he makes an angle of 45° with the x-axis downwards to the left over a distance of 2 units
- A man is 1. 65 m tall and standing 28 m away from a tree . . . - Socratic
Assuming the man's eyes are at the very top of his head (which is closer than assuming they are at his feet): The height of the tree is tan(32^o)*28 + 1 65 " meters" (Never underestimate the value of a picture)

- Question #05f5e - Socratic
a=4 24" "m s^2, " direction:downward" "while elevator is stops ,bathroom scale show only the weight of man " G=m*g=691" "N "The tension on cable is the sum of the man's and the elevator's weights " "Tension="G+G_("elevator") "When the elevator is accelerated downwards, there is an " "inertia force in the reverse direction " "This inertial force reduces the weight on the bathroom scale
- Question #01d26 - Socratic
Suppose a man is walking in the yellow colored direction with velocity V_1 and rain is falling from the sky with velocity V_2 According to the picture given the angleACB is theta Man's velocity is represented as vec(BA and the rain's velocity is represented as vec(CB
