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

A force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume is called
bulgar [2K]


The best answer is D.

Stress is a force that acts on rock to change its shape or volume. Because stress is a force, it adds energy to the rock, which is stored in the rock until either the rock breaks or changes shape.

There are three kinds of stress, namely shearing, tension and compression.

Shearing-  force that pushes a mass of rock in two opposite directions and can cause rock to break and  slip apart or change shape.

Tension -  force that pulls on the crust, stretching rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle.

Compression - force that squeezes rock until it folds or breaks
