For a concave mirror, the radius of curvature is twice the focal length of the mirror:
r=2f
where f, for a concave mirror, is taken to be positive.

Re-arranging the formula we get:
f= \frac{r}{2}
and since the radius of curvature of the mirror in the problem is 24 cm, the focal length is
f= \frac{24 cm}{2} = 12 cm

The magnitude of the Poynting vector of a planar electromagnetic wave has an average value of 0.939 W/m^2 . The wave is incident
Alchen [17]

Answer:

47 mW

Explanation:

The average value of the Poynting vector, S = 0.939 W/m² = Intensity of wave, I

S = I S

Also, I = P/A where P = Et, P = power of electromagnetic wave, E = energy of electromagnetic wave in time t and t = time = 1 min = 60 s and A = area = lb since the electromagnetic waves falls on area equal to that of a rectangle.

So, S = Et/A

E = SA/t

= Slb/t

= 0.939 W/m² × 1.5 m × 2.0 m/60 s

= 2.817 W/60 s

= 0.047 W

= 47 mW

So, 47 mW of electromagnetic energy falls on the area in 1.0 minute.

Newton's law of universal gravitation states that every object in the universe attracts every other object. true or false.
Oliga [24]
True,According to Isaac Newton believes that Gravity is responsible for drawing attraction which is directly proportional to product of their masses but inversely proportional  to the square  of the distance between them.
