Answer:

\boxed{\sf Focal \ length = 10 \ cm}

Given:

Radius of curvature (R) of a spherical mirror = 20

To Find:

Focal length (f)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf Focal \ length \ (f) = \frac{Radius \ of \ curvature \ (R)}{2}}}

Substituting value of R in the equation:

\sf \implies f =  \frac{20}{2}

\sf \implies f = \frac{ \cancel{2} \times 10}{ \cancel{2}}

\sf \implies f = 10 \: cm

Focal length = 10 cm.

Solution :

Given radius of curvature = 20 cm.

Formula :

Focal length = Radius of curvature/2

→ Focal length = 20/2

→ Focal length = 10 cm.

Answer : 10 cm.

Infer​ the effect of deforestation on the carrying capacity of the Amazon rainforest.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

More than 20% of the amazon has been destroyed, affects biodiversity.

Explanation:

  • The biggest issues that the amazon is facing is the deforestation and it involves the clearing of land areas for logging, farming, and other land-use changes.
  • Effects that are seen are droughts, floods, destruction of habitats of flora and fauna along with the valuable services of the ecosystem.
  • This leads to a decrease in the carrying capacity of the species and the decline of the essential resources that are necessary to survive.

As a pole of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin in the z-plane, while its phase remains constant, the d
Rudik [331]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

When the location of the poles changes in the z-plane, the natural or resonant frequency (ω₀) changes which in turn changes the damped frequency (ωd) of the system.

As the poles of a 2nd-order discrete-time system moves away from the origin then natural frequency (ω₀) increases, which in turn increases damped oscillation frequency (ωd) of the system.

ωd = ω₀√(1 - ζ)

Where ζ is called damping ratio.

For small value of ζ

ωd ≈ ω₀

7. A car moving at 10m/s (about 22.4 mph) crashes into a barrier and stops in 0.25 m.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

a) 0.05s

b) 4000N

Explanation:

a)When car is stopped its final velocity become zero

U- 10 m/s

V- 0 m/s

S - 0.25 m

t -?

S = (v+u)*t/2

0.25 =(10+0)*t/2

t = 0.05s

b) If we happened to calculate the avarage force we have to consider about acceleration

V= 0

U = 10

t = 0.05 s

a =?

V = U + at

0 = 10 -a * 0.05

a = 200 m/s2

F = m *a

= 20 * 200

= 4000N

a boy throws a ball straight up into the air. it reaches its highest point after 4 seconds.how fast was the ball going when it l
baherus [9]

Answer:

Explanation:

The most important thing to remember about parabolic motion in physics is that when an object reaches its max height, the velocity right there at the highest point is 0. Use this one-dimensional motion equation to solve this problem:

v = v₀ + at and filling in:

0 = v₀ + (-9.8)(4.0) **I put in 4.0 for time so we have more than just 1 sig fig here**

0 = v₀ - 39 and

-v₀ = -39 so

v₀ = 39 m/s
