A candle is 49 cm in front of a convex spherical mirror that has a focal length
1 answer:
The convex spherical mirror is the diverging mirror. The image distance is 20.4 cm. The magnification is 0.417. The image is virtual and upright.
<h3>What is magnification?</h3>Magnification is the ratio of image distance to the object distance.
Object distance is 49 cm and the focal length of convex mirror is 35 cm, then image distance is calculated by the lens maker formula.
1/f = 1/v +1/u
1/-35 = 1`/v +1/49
v= -20.4 cm
Thus, the image distance is 20.4 cm.
The magnification is given by
m = v/u
m = -20.4 / 49
m = 0.417
Thus, the magnification is 0.417.
The image formed is by virtual meeting of light rays and above the principle axis. Thus the image is virtual and upright.

Answer:
The energy of an electron in an isolated atom depends on b. n only.
Explanation:
The quantum number n, known as the principal quantum number represents the relative overall energy of each orbital.
The sets of orbitals with the same n value are often referred to as an electron shell, in an isolated atom all electrons in a subshell have exactly the same level of energy.
The principal quantum number comes from the solution of the Schrödinger wave equation, which describes energy in eigenstates , and for the case of an hydrogen atom we have:
Thus for each value of n we can describe the orbital and the energy corresponding to each electron on such orbital.
