An object is five focal lengths from a concave mirror.how do the object and image heights compare?

Physics

enot [183]3 years ago

An object distance is presented as s = 5f and we know that the mirror equation relates the image distance to the object distance and the focal length.

The mirror equation is 1/f = 1/s + 1/s’ where the variable f stands for the focal length of the mirror. Variable (s) represents the distance between the mirror surface and the object and the variable <span>(s’) represents the distance between the mirror surface and the image. </span>

In addition, a concave mirror will have a positive focal length (f) and a convex mirror will have a negative focal length (f).

Now, we then have 1/f = 1/5f + 1/s’ which is s’ = 5f/4

Then we get the magnification ratio that expresses the size or amount of magnification or reduction of the object or image and to get the magnification, we use this equation: M= s’/s

M= 5f/4x5f

s’ = 1/4s

Therefore, the image height is one fourth of the object height

A particle of charge q moving through a magnetic field B experiences the force where v is the velocity of the particle. Show tha
MrRa [10]

Answer:

       dx/Dt x B . x  =0

Explanation:

Let's calculate the work and the magnetic force, the expression for magnetic force is

        F = qv x B

Bold indicate vector quantities, the expression for the job is

         W = F. X

Let's replace in this equation

       W = q v x B . X

The definition of speed is

      v =  dX / dt

With what work is left

     W = q dX / dt x B . X

As we can see the vector product gives us a vector perpendicular to dX and its scalar product by X of zero

Second part

   The speed a vector and although the magnitude is constant the change of direction implies a change in the speed.

   Let's calculate the magnitudes of speed (speed)

       F = qv B sin θ

       F = ma

       q v B sin θ = ma

       a = qvB / m senT

     

This acceleration is perpendicular to the magnetic field and the velocity, so it does not change if magnitude but its direction, it is directed to the center of the circle.

   | v | = q vB/m sin θ

Two car horns are sounded creating two sound waves with frequencies that differ by a factor of three. How does the speed of the
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Remains the same

Explanation:

The speed of waves of higher and lower frequency both will be same.

the speed of sound in a medium is constant  and independent of it's frequency. Moreover, when the frequency changes wavelength changes accordingly, such that their product remains constant.

we know that

υ×λ = constant = velocity

υ= frequency

λ= wavelength.

Newton’s Laws of Motion are absolute in classical physics. One example that uses all three laws simultaneously is the firing of
Debora [2.8K]
I think that by "Classical physics" is meant low speed things. By low speed, I think is meant speed far below very roughly half the speed of light, so that Relativistic, special or general, effects can be ignored. Or at least it is hoped that they can be ignored. 
Fire extinguishers and rockets get propelled by forcing out large amounts of material (gases under very high pressure) through a nozzle, and the RECOIL from that propels something forward. So, if the action is the ejection of material, the reaction (recoil) is the ejector moving along the same line in the other direction. And that's an example of Newton's third law. 
Given a propulsion system, the magnitude of the force recoiling on the ejector will change the momentum of the ejector, often written as the equation F=ma where F is the force, m is the mass being accelerated, and a being the acceleration.
Just as something will stay still until it is moved - inertia - so once set in uniform motion in a straight line, the thing will continue in that motion, theoretically for ever or until something alters its momentum. Newton's first law is to the effect of "every body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless acted on by a resultant external force". Which, I think, is where the concept of inertia stems from. 
I think that the above mostly tcuches on the 3 laws.Any more help needed, please ask.
