Light bend s as it hits a surface. The light bends in the water making the straw look bent in the water

How often do the earth's magnetic poles switch?

RSB [31]

Reversals are the rule, not the exception. Earth has settled in the last 20 million years into a pattern of a pole<span> reversal about every 200,000 to 300,000 years, although it has been more than twice that </span>long<span> since the last reversal.</span>

The distance from one Crest to the next Crest is the blank

Luda [366]

The distance from one crest to the next crest in a set of waves is called the wavelength. The distance from the crest of one wave to the equilibrium point is called frequency.

If a battery causes a wire to carry a current of 4 Amps how many coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds

BabaBlast [244]

$▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪ {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪$

According to above question ~

Current (I) = 4 Amperes

Time (t) = 3 seconds

Charge (q) = ?

Let's find the charge (q) by using formula ~

$I = \dfrac{q}{t}$

$4 = \dfrac{q}{3}$

$q = 4 \times 3$

$q = 12 \: \: coulombs$

Hence, 12 coulombs of charge flow past any point in the wire in 3 seconds

Using Mirror equation A, Calculate The Frequency Of The Long Stand And The Shortest Wave Length Of That An Object Is Placed Of A

Leya [2.2K]

The Image distance and Magnification of The Image will be 30 cm and 3.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length of the lens, which is often expressed in millimeters, is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus.

Given data;

Focal length,f=?

Image distance,v=?

Object distance,u= 10 cm

Magnification,m= 2.85

The focal length is half of the radius;

f=R/2

f=30 Cm/2

f= 15 Cm

The mirror equation is found as;

$\rm \frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{v} +\frac{1}{u} \\\\\ \frac{1}{15}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{10} } \\\\\ v= -30 \ cm$

The magnification of the lens is found as;

$\rm m=\frac{30}{10}\\\\ m=3$

Hence, the image distance and magnification of The image will be 30 cm and 3.
