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.

A toy rocket that weights 10 N blasts straight up from ground level with an initial kinetic energy of 40J. at the exact top of i
marishachu [46]

Answer:

14 m

Explanation:

Applying,

P.E = WH............ Equation 1

Where P.E = potential energy at the highest vertical height, W = weight of the toy rocket, H = Vertical height.

Note: At the highest vertical height, the kinetic energy is 0 J

Therefore,

Mechanical energy(M.E) = Potential Energy(P.E)

make H the subject of the equation

H = P.E/W......... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: W = 10 N,  P.E = 140 J

Substitute these values in equation 2

H = 140/10

H = 14 m

Label these parts on the wave below: Amplitude, Wavelength, Crest, Trough, Rest Position
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Wavelength is the distance between from one crest to another crest or from one trough to another trough. The amplitude is the distance from the midpoint to the crest or trough. Crest is the highest point of the or a wave. Tough is the lowest point of the or a wave. Rest position is the position where it lies on the midpoint line.

Explanation:

I need a diagram to label these parts.

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?
Katyanochek1 [597]
That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)

Hope this helps! (If correct, please rank as brainliest answer) :)
