Explanation:

It is given that,

Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -13.5 cm

Image distance, v = -37.5 cm (in front of mirror)

Let u is the object distance. It can be calculated using the mirror's formula as :

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

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

\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{(-13.5)}-\dfrac{1}{(-37.5)}

u = -21.09 cm

The magnification of the mirror is given by :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-37.5)}{(-21.09)}

m = -1.77

So, the magnification produced by the mirror is (-1.77). Hence, this is the required solution.

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

Which expression of distance uses SI units? A. 30 miles B. 16 kilograms C. 24 feet D. 500 meters
Stella [2.4K]
Hi!

SI units are physical measurements which will be in the form of kilograms, second, kelvin, metres, etc.

Since kilograms measure the weight of an object, it is out. Miles and feet are not SI units, so they are also out. This only leaves one answer left!

Hopefully, this helps! =)
