Which of the following sets of characteristics describes the image formed by a plane mirror?A. Virtual and invertedB. Real and u
tiny-mole [99]
<h2>Answer: Virtual and upright</h2><h2 />

A plane mirror is a highly polished flat surface with a very high capacity to reflect incident light.  

We can understand in a better way how this works with the figure attached:  

1. The incident rays coming from the real object reach the mirror and  

2.are reflected following the law of Reflection.  

3.The prolongation of those reflected rays converge at a point that does not coincide with the actual position of the object. At that point the virtual image of the object is formed.  

4.Then, the reflected divergent rays are captured by our eye converging on the retina.  

Now, the image is said to be virtual because it is a copy of the object that looks as if the object is behind the mirror and not in front of it or on the surface, but it is not really there. However, it can be seen when we focus it with our eyes.  

In addition, the image formed is:  

symmetrical, because apparently it is at the same distance from the mirror  

the same size as the object.  

upright, because it retains the same orientation as the object.

What is the physical representation of the area under a force versus extension or compression curve?
lidiya [134]

The compression curve would be theoretically given for a system of bodies in which the spring applies the force (Although in the same way the following process can be extrapolated to any system, depending on the type of Force to consider) For a spring mass system, the strength is given by Hooke's law as

F = Kx

Where,

K  = Spring constant

x = Displacement

If we integrate based on distance we would have

\int F = \int K x dx

This integral represents the area under the Force Curve based on each distance segment traveled.

\int F = K \int xdx

\int F = K (\frac{1}{2} x^2)

\int F = \frac{1}{2} Kx^2

This is the same formula that represents the elastic potential energy of a body. Therefore the correct answer is D.

Part A: Explain why x = 5 makes 4x − 1 ≤ 19 true but not 4x − 1 &lt; 19. (5 points) Part B: What value from the set {6, 7, 8, 9,
Elis [28]

Answer:

A: ≤ means less than OR equal to. < only means less than

B: 9

Explanation:

A: Because it would equal 19, and 19 is EQUAL than 19. 4(5) - 1 would equal 19, which is equal to 19, and not less than. ≤ means less than or equal to. < means less than. So its not true.

B: 47 - 2, 45. Then 5 x 9 equals 45. So 5 x 9 equals 45, then add 2 would equal 47.

Hope this helps <3

What will a spring scale read for the weight of a 75.0-kg woman in an elevator that moves upward with constant speed of 5.8 m/s
Sholpan [36]
<span>On the scale the only external forces are the man's weight acting downwards and the normal force which the scale exerts back to support his weight. So F = Ma = mg + Fs The normal force Fs (which is actually the reading on the scale) = Ma + Mg But a = 0 So Fs = Mg which is just his weight. Fs = 75 * 9.8 = 735N</span>
