Convex mirrors can only produce virtual images because the focal point and the center of curvature of the convex mirror are imaginary points and that cannot be reached.

<h3>What is virtual image?</h3>

This is referred to the opposite of a real image and cannot be obtained on a screen. It is formed from the  apparent divergent of light rays from a point  and not the actual one which is the major difference it has with a real image.

It is usually produced by a convex mirror because the focal point and the center of curvature of the convex mirror are imaginary points which can't be reached.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)

W = 810.6 J

Explanation:

a.

Using first law of thermodynamics:

Q = ΔU + W

where,

Q = Heat Absorbed = 500 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy of Gas = ?

W = Work Done = PΔV =

P = Pressure = 2 atm = 202650 Pa

ΔV = Change in Volume = 10 L - 6 L = 4 L = 0.004 m³

Therefore,

Q = ΔU + PΔV

500 J = ΔU + (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

ΔU = 500 J - 810.6 J

<u>ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)</u>

<u></u>

b.

The work done can be simply calculated as:

W = PΔV

W = (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

<u>W = 810.6 J</u>

Ket [755]

Answer:

Please refer to the figure.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field can be found by Biot-Savart Law. We should divide the loop into four components. Each component has a similar solution but their directions are quite different.

The directions can be found by right-hand rule. Point your index finger into the direction of current, point your middle finger towards the target point (0,0,a). Your thumb will show you the direction of magnetic field.
