Explanation:

Image distance, v = -17 cm (-ve for virtual image)

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 39 cm

Focal length, f = -19.5 cm (-ve for a concave mirror)

(a) Using 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}{-19.5}-\dfrac{1}{(-17)}  

u = 132.6 cm    

So, the object is placed 132.6 cm in front of the mirror.

(b) Magnification of the  mirror, m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-17}{132.6}

m = -0.128

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a satellite in a circular orbit around the earth. Why is it important to give a satellite a horizontal speed when placi
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

In this case, the horizontal velocity of the rocket starts from the acceleration, so if its velocity drops to zero,

Explanation:

When a satellite is in orbit the most important force is the docking of gravity with the Earth

             F = m a

where the acceleration is centripetal and F is the force of universal attraction

centripetal acceleration is

             a = v² / r

             

             F = m v² / r

In this case, the horizontal velocity of the rocket starts from the acceleration, so if its velocity drops to zero, the force also drops to serious and the satellite steels to Earth.

The speed of the satellite is provides the speed, by local for smaller speeds in satellite, it descends in its orbits and when the speed is amate you have the energy to stop an orb to go to a higher orbit.

An experiment is set up to test the angular resolution of an optical device when red light (wavelength ????r ) shines on an aper
Neko [114]

Explanation:

As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

\theta=\frac{1.22 \lambda}{D}

From this expression larger the size of aperture, smaller will be the value of angular resolution and hence, better will be the device i.e. precision for distinguishing two points at very high angular difference is higher.

You have a battery marked " 6.00 V 6.00 V ." When you draw a current of 0.383 A 0.383 A from it, the potential difference betwee
Archy [21]

Answer:

V = 4.81 V

Explanation:

  • As the potential difference between the battery terminals, is less than the rated value of the battery, this means that there is some loss in the internal resistance of the battery.
  • We can calculate this loss, applying Ohm's law to the internal resistance, as follows:

        V_{rint} = I* r_{int}

  • The value of the potential difference between the terminals of the battery, is just the voltage of the battery, minus the loss in the internal resistance, as follows:

       V = V_{b} - V_{rint}  = 5.03 V = 6.0 V - 0.383 A* r_{int}

  • We can solve for rint, as follows:

         r_{int} = \frac{V_{b}-V}{I} =\frac{6.0V-5.03V}{0.383A} = 2.53 \Omega

  • When the circuit draws from battery a current I of 0.469A, we can find the potential difference between the terminals of the battery, as follows:

       V = V_{b} - V_{rint}  = 6.0 V - 0.469 A* 2.53 \Omega= 6.0 V - 1.19 V = 4.81 V

  • As the current draw is larger, the loss in the internal resistance will be larger too, so the potential difference between the terminals of the battery will be lower.

If the plane is flying in a horizontal path at an altitude of 98.0 m above the ground and with a speed of 73.0 m/s, at what hori
snow_lady [41]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     height (h) = 98.0 m,     speed (v) = 73.0 m/s,

Formula of height in vertical direction is as follows.

          h = \frac{gt^{2}}{2},

or,      t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

Now, formula for the required distance (d) is as follows.

       d = vt

          = v \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}  

        = 73.0 m/s \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 98.0 m}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}  

          = 326.5 m

Thus, we can conclude that 326.5 m is the horizontal distance from the target from where should the pilot release the canister.
