Explanation:

Height of the light bulb, h = 4.75 cm

Distance between the light bulb and the concave mirror, u = -33.2 cm

Focal length of the mirror, f = -28.2 cm (negative always)    

Let v is the distance between the image and the light bulb. It can be calculated as :

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-28.2}-\dfrac{1}{-33.2}  

v = -187.24 cm

So, the image distance from the mirror is 187.24 cm.  

The magnification of the mirror is given by :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

or

m=\dfrac{h'}{h}, h' is the size of image  

\dfrac{-v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}

\dfrac{-(-187.24)}{-33.2}=\dfrac{h'}{4.75}              

h = -26.78 cm

So, the height of the image is 26.78 cm and it is inverted. Hence, this is the required solution.

The image distance can be determined using the mirror equation: 1/f = 1/d_o + 1/d_i, where, f is the focal length, d_o is the object distance, and d_i is the image distance. Given that f = 28.2 and d_o = 33.2 cm, the value of d_i is calculated to be 187.248 cm. On the other hand, the image height is obtained using the magnification equation wherein, h_i/h_o = -d_i/d_o, where h_i is the image height and h_o is the object height. Using the given values, h_i is equal to -26.79 cm. Note that the negative sign indicates that the image is inverted.

How does the search for exoplanets help us describe how science requires creativity?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

As the planets are very small and dark in comparison with stars, it makes them very hard to be found from earth.

Explanation:

Astronomy, of course, has a solution for this. As astronomers can't observe planets directly, they decided to observe the stars and search for the effects that planets have on them.

There are many ways of observing the exoplanets: Radial Velocity, Transit Photometry, Microlensing, Astrometry, Direct Imaging, etc.

Before all of this, scientist had to find ways to prove their theories. Most of their time they have spent in giving the creative answers.

Science and creativity are very much connected when we speak about the development of science. Rationality and creativity always go together.

In order to create an idea that other people will consider useful, it is important to use creativity. As no one has the exact answer when it comes to science, the adventure is to research the unknown.

Answer:

ANSWER BELOW I

                             I

                            V

Remember that w=mg where w is weight in Newtons, m is mass in kilograms, and g is gravity in

m/s2

. For example, for Earth, 445 N = 45.4 × 9.8

m/s2

:Notice that the x-axis values will be gravity in

m/s2

, which is already given in the table, and the y-axis values will be the weight in Newtons. Remember to round your weights to a whole number, and to enter the points starting with the lowest gravity (moon, then Mars, then Venus, then Earth).

Through which of these media do sound waves travel most slowly? A.iron. B.Wood. C.Water. D.Cold Air
EleoNora [17]
The answer should be D) Cold air because even though its true sound can travel through all types of matter, air which is a gas, can travel but it travels SLOWLY while sound travels quickly in SOLIDS.

friction force is the opposition to the motion of surfaces sliding across each other. what is one factor that affects the amount
ruslelena [56]

Answer

Nature of the surfaces.


Explanation

Friction is the the force that opposes motion between two surfaces that are in relative motion. If two objects are in contact, one of it or both must be in motion for friction to exist.

Friction is affected by a number of factors.

One is the weight of the object. The more the weight of the object the higher the friction between it and the surface.

The other factor is the nature of the surfaces. Rough surfaces contribute to high friction while smooth surfaces reduces the friction between surfaces.
