You will begin with a relatively standard calculation.Consider a concave spherical mirror with a radius of curvature equal to 60

.0 centimeters. An object 6.00 centimeters tall is placed along the axis of the mirror, 45.0 centimeters from the mirror. You are to find the location and height of the image.a) What is the focal length Image for this mirror?b) Now use the spherical mirror equation to find the imagedistance s'.c) Find the magnification m,using sand s'.d) Finally, use the magnification to find the height of theimage y'.e) Solve the spherical mirror equation for s'.f)What is the magnification m? Use your answer from Part E

a) 30.0 cm

For any mirror, the radius of curvature is twice the focal length:

r = 2f

where

r is the radius of curvature

f is the focal length

For the mirror in this problem, we have

r = 60.0 cm is the radius of curvature

Therefore, solving the equation above for f, we find its focal length:

f=\frac{r}{2}=\frac{60.0 cm}{2}=30.0 cm

b) 90 cm

The mirror equation is:

\frac{1}{s'}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{s}

where

s' is the distance of the image from the mirror

f is the focal length

s is the distance of the object from the mirror

For the situation in the problem, we have

f = +30.0 cm is the focal length (positive for a concave mirror)

s = 45.0 cm is the object distance from the mirror

Solving the formula for s', we find

\frac{1}{s'}=\frac{1}{30.0 cm}-\frac{1}{45.0 cm}=0.011 cm^{-1}

s'=\frac{1}{0.011 cm^{-1}}=90 cm

c) -2

The magnification of the mirror is given by

M=-\frac{s'}{s}

where in this problem we have

s' = 90 cm is the image distance

s = 45.0 cm is the object distance

Solving the equation, we find:

M=-\frac{90 cm}{45 cm}=-2

So, the magnification is -2.

d) -12.0 cm

The magnification can also be rewritten as

M=\frac{y'}{y}

where

y' is the height of the image

y is the heigth of the object

In this problem, we know

y = 6.0 cm is the height of the object

M = -2 is the magnification

Solving the equation for y', we find

y'=My=(-2)(6.0 cm)=-12.0 cm

and the negative sign means that the image is inverted.

Part e and f are exactly identical as part b) and c).

As gravity continues to crush the inner core, the fusion of carbon and oxygen begins. What temperature is needed for the fusion
Olin [163]

Answer:

600,000,000 degree C

Explanation:

This stage is the last stage and is refereed to as supernova. In the beginning of this stage, gravity pulls the inner core and crush it, due to which fusion of atoms starts. Carbon and Oxygen fuse together and the temperature is about of 600,000,000 degree C.

The most heavier atom that can be formed out of this fusion is the iron. The moment all the atoms becomes of iron, no further fusion is possible hence that body emits radiation of high intensity and collapse causing a big supernova.

three resistors which values of 15 ohm 40 ohm 60 ohm respectively are connected in parallel. what is their equivalent resistance
VashaNatasha [74]

1) Equivalent resistance, 1/R = 1/15 + 1/40 + 1/60 = 8+3+2 /120 = 13/120

R = 120/13 = 9.23

2) Current, I = V/R = 115/9.23 = 12.45 A
