Answer:

C) 10 cm

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the focal length of the mirror.

object distance u = 20 cm ( negative )

Image distance v = 12 cm ( negative )

using mirror formula

1/ v + 1 /u = 1/ f

-1/12  - 1/ 20 =1/ f

f =- 7.5 cm

In the second case

u = - 30 cm

f = - 7.5 cm

i / v + 1 / u = 1 / f

1 / v - 1/30 = - 1/ 7.5

v = -10 cm

Answer is C that is 10 cm

An electric iron operating at 120 volts draws 10. amperes of current. how much heat energy
faltersainse [42]
The complete question is how much heat energy is delivered by the iron in 30 seconds.
Heat is given by IVt, Where I is the current in Amperes, V is the voltage, and t is the time in seconds,
Therefore; 
Heat energy = 120 × 10 ×30
                     = 36000 joules or 36 kJ
Heat energy is measured in joules.

An electron moving in the direction of the +x-axis enters a magnetic field. If the electron experiences a magnetic deflection in
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

<em>-z axis</em>

Explanation:

According to the left hand rule for an electron in a magnetic field, hold the thumb of the left hand at a right angle to the rest of the fingers, and the rest of the fingers parallel to one another. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the electron. In this case, the left hand will be held out with the thumb pointing to the right (+x axis), and the palm facing your body (-y axis). The magnetic field indicated by the other fingers will point down in the the -z axis.
