Document Summary

As kant"s theory is complex and difficult philosopher to read, it is important to consider each step. The questions below are aimed to guide this reflection. What determines their behavior: what is the difference between subjective ends and objective ends (p. 83), what is kind of ends ground a hypothetical imperative (pp. Why: and what kind of ends ground the categorical imperative (pp. Why: how does this categorical imperative argue that (pp. If we buy something in a shop, we seem to use a shop owners to attain our ends. Taurek applies a kantian perspective to criticize a central element of utilitarianism. Note that this paper is the subject of the first essay question (due february 9): what element of utilitarianism does taurek"s argument attack, what is his first argument (pp. 306-307): what is his second argument (pp.

When the heart pumps blood into the aorta, the pressuregradient-the difference between the blood pressure inside the heartand the blood pressure in the artery-is an important diagnosticmeasurement. A direct measurement of the pressure gradient isdifficult, but an indirect determination can be made by measuringthe Doppler shift of reflected ultrasound. Blood is essentially atrest in the heart; when it leaves and enters the aorta, it speedsup significantly and-according to Bernoulli's equation-the pressuremust decrease. A doctor using ultrasound of 2.5 MHz measures a 5400Hz frequency shift as the ultrasound reflects from blood ejectedfrom the heart.
Part A
What is the speed of the blood in the aorta? Assume that the speedof sound in human body is 1540 m/s
A:1.7 m/s
***Part B
What is the difference in blood pressure between the inside of theheart and the aorta? Assume that the patient is lying down and thatthere is no difference in height as the blood moves from the heartinto the aorta.

Consider a negatively charged particle entering a region betweentwo large charged plates, as shown in the diagram below. Theinitial velocity of the particle is 7.0 x 10^7 m/s. The mass of theparticle is 9.1 x 10^-31kg and the charge is -1.6 x 10^-19C. Thedistance between the plates is 0.025m. You can consider theelectrical force to be the only force acting between the plates.(The force of gravity is negligible and can be considered to bezero in this problem.)

a) Determine the magnitude and the direction of the electric field,if the particle just reaches the negative plate (if the velocity atthe negative plate is zero). Show your work and explain yourreasoning.
b) Determine the potential difference between the plates. Show yourwork and explain your reasoning.
c) Which plate is at a higher potential. Show your work and explainyour reasoning.

a candle is placed in front of a convex mirror.

A candle is placed in front of a convex mirror.

Figure6 of 6The figure labeled C shows two rays coming out of the top of the object in front of the concave mirror, forming an acute angle with the axis. Upper ray reflects parallel to the axis. And the lower ray reflects in the direction exactly opposite to its initial direction. There is a focus point F on the axis in front of the mirror and a center of the mirror’s curvature C between point F and the object. The image is smaller, than the object, located between points F and C, and inverted, its tip is formed by intersection of the reflected rays. The initial upper ray passes through point F and the initial upper ray passes through point C. The figure labeled C shows two rays coming out of the top of the object in front of the concave mirror, forming an acute angle with the axis. Upper ray reflects parallel to the axis. And the lower ray reflects in the direction exactly opposite to its initial direction. There is a focus point F on the axis in front of the mirror and a center of the mirror’s curvature C between point F and the object. The image is smaller, than the object, located between points F and C, and inverted, its tip is formed by intersection of the reflected rays. The initial upper ray passes through point F and the initial upper ray passes through point C.

Part A Consider the following diagrams noting that the scale is different between diagrams. In these diagrams, C and F represent the center of curvature and the focal point of the convex mirror, respectively. The image formed by the mirror is obtained using the ray tracing technique. Which diagram(s) are correct?(Figure 1) (Figure 2) (Figure 3) Type A if you think that only diagram A is correct, type AB if you think that only diagrams A and B are correct, and so on.

Part B If the radius of curvature of the convex mirror is 50.0 cm , at what distance do from the mirror must the candle be placed so that its image is formed 20 cm from the mirror? Express your answer in centimeters. View Available Hint(s) dod o d_o = cm The convex mirror is now replaced by a concave mirror with the same radius of curvature.

Part C Consider the following diagrams, where now C and F represent, respectively, the center of curvature and the focal point of the concave mirror. Again, the image formed by the mirror is found by ray tracing. Choose the correct diagram(s).(Figure 4) (Figure 5) (Figure 6) Type A if you think that only diagram A is correct, type AB if you think that only diagrams A and B are correct, and so on. View Available Hint(s)

Part D Assuming that the candle remains at a distance do from the mirror (the same distance found in Part B), at what distance di from the mirror will its image form now? Express your answer in centimeters. View Available Hint(s) did i d_i = nothing cm
