1) Solution of the problem using ray diagram (see attachment)

P is the point where the object is located, Q is the point where the image is located, F is the  focal length. Everything is in scale such that 1 small square = 0.10 m. As we can see:

(a) the location of the image (Q) is approximately at 7 small squares from the mirror, so the  distance of the image from the mirror will be between 0.65 m- 0.70m. Its size is a bit more than 1 small square, so it should be between 0.10 m- 0.15 m.

(b) the image is inverted

(c) the image is real, because it is on the same side of the object


2) Solution using mirror equation

(a) We have:
\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}
By using p=2.1 m and f=0.50 m, we find q=0.66 cm, which corresponds to what we found using ray diagrams.

(b) For the magnification, we can use the equation:
M= \frac{h_i}{h_o} = - \frac{q}{p}
where h_i is the size of the image and h_o = 36 cm =0.36 m is the size of the object.
So, we find
M = -\frac{q}{p}= -\frac{0.66 m}{2.1 m}=-0.31
So, the magnification is 0.31 (the negative sign means the image is inverted)

(c) The height of the image is given by the  same equation of step (b):
M= \frac{h_i}{h_o}
So, since M=-0.31 and h_o = 36 cm=0.36 m, we find
h_i = -M h_o = (--0.31)(0.36 m)=-0.11 m=-11 cm
so, the size of the image is 11 cm, and the negative sign means again the image is inverted.

A quantity of gas is contained in a sealed container of fixed volume. The temperature of the
Alchen [17]

Answer:

If the Kelvin temperature of a gas is increased, the volume of the gas increases. This can be understood by imagining the particles of gas in the container moving with a greater energy when the temperature is increased.

Explanation:

If you heat a gas you give the molecules more energy so they move faster. This means more impacts on the walls of the container and an increase in the pressure. Conversely if you cool the molecules down they will slow and the pressure will be decreased.

To calculate a change in pressure or temperature using Gay Lussac's Law.

A block of mass
Gennadij [26K]

(a) The work done by the applied force is 26.65 J.

(b) The work done by the normal force exerted by the table is 0.

(c) The work done by the force of gravity is 0.

(d) The work done by the net force on the block is 26.65 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

W = Fdcosθ

W = 14 x 2.1 x cos25

W = 26.65 J

<h3>Work done by the normal force</h3>

W = Fₙd

W = mg cosθ x d

W = (2.5 x 9.8) x cos(90) x 2.1

W = 0 J

<h3>Work done force of gravity</h3>

The work done by force of gravity is also zero, since the weight is at 90⁰ to the displacement.

<h3> Work done by the net force on the block</h3>

∑W = 0 + 26.65 J = 26.65 J

Thus, the work done by the applied force is 26.65 J.

The work done by the normal force exerted by the table is 0.

The work done by the force of gravity is 0.

The work done by the net force on the block is 26.65 J.
