Exercise 7
Step 1
1 of 3
The height of the point of reflection will increase.
Step 2
2 of 3
If the distance of the observer from the base is $2d$, then we have
$$
frac{h}{4d}=frac{y}{3d}
$$
or
$$
y=frac{3}{4}h
$$
Since $3/4>2/3$, the height of the point of reflection increases.
Result
3 of 3
The point of reflection increases.
Exercise 8
Step 1
1 of 2
The image distance from the mirror will also reduced by $1.1$ m/s., So the velocity between student and his image will be $2times 1.1=2.2$ m/s
Result
2 of 2
2.2 m/s
