Answer:
f = 12 cm
Explanation:
<u>Center of Curvature</u>:
The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of mirror.
<u>The Radius of Curvature</u>:
The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.
<u>Focal Length</u>:
The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.
The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

where,
f = focal length = ?
R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm
Therefore,

<u>f = 12 cm</u>
Answer: choices a and b
Explanation:
Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.
it allows only a reduced number of electrons to flow through it.
Answer:
Option A is correct.
(The faster object encounters more resistance)
Explanation:
Option A is correct. (The faster object encounters more resistance)
Air resistance depends on various factors:
- Speed of the object
- Cross-sectional area of the object
- Shape of the object
Formula:

As the speed of the object increases the amount of Air resistance/drag increases on the object, as the above formula shows direct relation between Air resistance/drag and velocity i.e F ∝ v^2.
Answer:
The battery can supply 130 W for 11.75 h
Explanation:
In order to discover the time in wich the battery can supply this energy we need to find how much current is being drawn from it, we do that by using the equation for real power that is P = V*I, since we have V and P we can solve for I as seen bellow:
I = P/V = 130/12 = 10.834 A
We can use this value to find how many hours the power can supply said current. We do that by dividing the current capacity of the battery by the current drawn:
t = 141/12 = 11.75 h
